Keyword Research
Keywords are the words and phrases that people type into search engines like Google to find information, products, or services. They are the bridge between what your target audience is looking for and the content you provide on your website.
Why is Keyword Research Important?
Competition: Keyword research helps you understand the competitive landscape. You can identify keywords with lower competition, making it easier to rank higher in search results.
Relevance: Using the right keywords ensures that your content is relevant to what people are searching for. This helps search engines understand what your pages are about and rank them accordingly.
Targeted Traffic: By targeting specific keywords, you attract visitors who are genuinely interested in your offerings. This increases the chances of conversions (e.g., making a purchase, signing up for a newsletter).
