Keyword Research & Mapping for SEO (Search Engine Optimization)

Created 8 years ago in Sales & Marketing / Search Engine Optimization

I execute keyword research at a scale that few other SEOs can compete with. Not only do I find the greatest number of keywords for any one business/website (2,000-6,000 relevant keywords), but I also manually break those keywords apart into relevant and related groups. This allows us to then strategically plan out content and optimize targeted pages for dozens of long-tail keywords.

We collect keywords from the following sources and more:

Import previous keyword research.
Import keywords from Google Analytics/Webmaster Tools.
“Get Ideas” from Google Keyword Planner from landing page.
Check and import the keywords that your site is already ranking for
Check and import keywords that 3-6 competitors are already ranking for.
“Get Ideas” from competitors’ landing pages in Google Keyword Planner.
Check competitors’ meta keywords.
Manually brainstorm a list of ideas and use Google Keyword Planner to “Get Ideas”.
Get keyword suggestions from Ahrefs, SEMrush, and more.
“Get Ideas” from a list of services available from website.
Manually create a “mashup” of keyword combinations/permutations.
