Most websites fail to achieve high rankings on search engines due to the lack of attention to keyword research. Choosing and qualifying the correct website keywords are absolutely crucial to the success of your site.
Choosing keywords with low search volumes will attract very few visitors to your website.
There is no point finding niche market keywords that have low search volumes as you will attract very few visitors to your website. Equally if you choose website keywords with high search volumes, that also have a high number of websites competing for that keyword, you will struggle to achieve a high placement on the search engines, simply because you are competing with thousands of other sites. The solution therefore is to identify website keywords with high search volumes but with a much lower number of websites competing for that keyword.
For example, a website keyword registering 10,000 searches with 100,000 sites competing for that keyword would not be as strong as an alternative keyword with the same search volume but only 5,000 websites competing for that keyword.
Professional keyword research is an extremely important piece of the website promotion jigsaw.
Extensive keyword research will help you to identify the most relevant search terms used by your potential customers. These search terms will also help to improve your search engine rankings.
Most customers are likely to use search terms containing 2 or 3 keywords when searching for a particular product or service. Therefore websites containing mainly single keywords are unlikely to produce high levels of search traffic. The use of single generic keywords are also more likely to produce a lot of non relevant traffic to your site. For example, if a customer uses the keyword "coffee" they may be looking for a coffee making machine, fresh ground coffee or even a local coffee shop. Therefore keyword research is vital to the success of your online business.
Most website owners fall into the trap of thinking that they know the best keywords for their website.
A lot of website owners fall into the trap if thinking that it is very easy to identify the relevant search terms that potential customers are likely to use when searching for their products. However extensive research has shown that the search terms used will be based on a customers own experience and the way they relate to a specific product or service. Very often this will be totally different to the way the owner of a business is likely to refer to their own products or services.
Review and refresh your keyword research on a regular basis.
You will need to review and refresh your keyword marketing as your website develops. For example, you will need to introduce new search terms to promote a new product or service.
Our keyword research service will identify the most relevant website keywords for your business. A report analysing the monthly search volume for each keyword, split between UK and worldwide searches, will be provided.
