Below are some of the criteria I had in mind.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The content will be tailored to someone who at least have some interest in SEO<\/li>\n<li>The content will target high up in the buying funnel<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As you can see I did not do a full blown Persona development or in depth thinking about how this content will play out with other stage of buying\u00a0funnel, because I just want to do a quick experiment.<\/p>\n<p>So since we are targeting high up in the buying funnel, most phrases in this funnel contain ;\u00a0How; What; Where; When etc<\/p>\n<p>lately, I have been working on\u00a0about how to find low competition keywords so\u00a0I typed in &#8220;how to check keyword competition&#8221; and got about 524 related keywords.<\/p>\n<p>If you like a more systematic approach, you could try &#8220;how check keyword&#8221; or &#8220;what check keyword&#8221; at this step. So basically combine typical question phrase words with the target keyword.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/digitalreadymarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/how-to-check-keyword-competition.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3827 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalreadymarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/how-to-check-keyword-competition-1024x491.png\" alt=\"how to check keyword competition\" width=\"960\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalreadymarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/how-to-check-keyword-competition-1024x491.png 1024w, https:\/\/digitalreadymarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/how-to-check-keyword-competition-300x144.png 300w, https:\/\/digitalreadymarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/how-to-check-keyword-competition.png 1093w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After downloading the keywords to CSV file and playing around with the list by filtering with various filters,\u00a0&#8220;keyword difficulty checker&#8221; stood out to me.<\/p>\n<p>It has 70 average monthly search so likely has been flying under the radar, especially from <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalreadymarketing.com\/beat-fortune-500-companies-seo\/\">large corporate guys<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Disclaimer:<\/strong> up till this point, it sounds like everything is going smoothly but I did spend some time flirting around with other keywords as well.
