There is no benefit to write any tutorial if people are not searching for your keyword.

This would be like shooting in dark, and we don’t know where we are going to hit.

If you are tired finding tutorials about good keyword research then your search ends here.

Today I am going to share Long Tail Pro Tutorial which is going to help you finding thousands of good keywords, which will send huge traffic on your blog and money will start pouring in your pocket.

keywords

It has given us potential keywords giving information about average CPC, local searches, global searches, advertiser competition, average keyword competition (you will get this feature in platinum version).


Step 4: Sort them according to local searches or global searches (I sorted them according to local searches here).
Now we are going to find keywords which are having local searches between 2000 to 10000 and global searches 4000-20000.

There is one column Advertiser Competition which is beneficial for advertisers only. Means if you want to advertise for these keywords using Google Adwords then you will have to face this much competition.

We are going to use calculate button here.

I will click on calculate button and see how much competition we will have to face if we want to rank for this keyword.

Note: We will target keywords which will have average competition less than 40.

Now we have found some potential keywords for which we can build our niche blog or write article.


Step 5: Analyze your competitors
This is very important step which you will have to perform very carefully. Here we are going to analyze our top 10 competitors and going to see their SEO.
For a good one page SEO.

Your title must have your keyword.
Your article url must have keyword.
Your on-page SEO must be very strong.

Here we are going to check our 10 competitor’s SEO.

I have selected “how to prevent acne” keyword which is having 2900 local searches and 5400 global searches. This keyword has average keyword competition 39.

Read carefully

Here we are going to check page authority, domain authority, page rank and domain’s age of our competitors.

Our very first observation will be to check our competitors for exact match “best acne spot treatment”


Now you can see that there is no title having our exact keyword match.
So here I will conclude that it is moderately easy to rank keyword and with little efforts and good backlinking we can rank for this keyword.

Final Words.
This is the exact keyword research procedure which I am using to find potential keywords for my blogs and driving thousands if visitors daily.

Hope this Long Tail Pro Tutorial will help you to find great keywords and dominate search engines.
