What is Competitor Keyword Analysis?

Competitor keyword analysis is the process of determining which keywords your competition ranks highly for in order to produce content that outranks them in search results.

The keywords for which you perform competition research should be relevant to your company and linked to the material you presently produce. If you are a B2B business manufacturing machine parts, you shouldn’t write a blog about the best clothing to wear to the gym.

This research also enables you to determine how tough it will be to outrank a rival that is performing better than you in the SERPs, as well as identify high-return prospects when outranking a competitor for a relevant keyword is not too difficult.

How do you conduct competitor keyword research?

Identify Competitors

First, you need to identify your competitors. Depending on the industry, location, and size of your business, you may have many direct competitors or only a small number. For example, if you are an eCommerce business selling a number of clothing items, you may have certain competitors for different products.

You might have competitors who only sell tops and completely different competitors who sell bottoms. You also may have competitors who sell everything you do.

Identify Target Audience

Identifying your target audience and your competitors is essential to gaining an upper hand in your online marketing. Once your competitors are identified, you can conduct your research to create a list of keywords you feel they may be lacking in their content marketing strategy.

Content Strategy

You can then create a strategy to build content around this list of keywords. There should be a mix of keywords with high search volume, low competition, as well as long-tail keywords. Building high quality content should then drive more organic traffic to your website.

Researching Keywords

Researching the correct keywords that are relevant to your business is essential. You can identify keywords your competitors rank for, ones you can use for SEO, as well as some you can use in Google Ads. Competitive keyword analysis can identify the right ones to use.

Google Ads PPC

This is a long-term strategy using organic keywords. Google Ads uses paid keywords to drive high intent traffic to your site and you can use this keyword research for PPC.
