Supposing you decided to build a house, what would be the first thing to determine? Is it the wallpaper color? Is it the furniture style? Certainly, not. The first thing on your list would be choosing the right neighborhood.
Exactly the same goes for website development and promotion. Analyzing the online marketplace and finding the right niche for your business is the crucial step for your ultimate success. Before you start to compete for the high rankings, it is important to be exact in your pursuits. Thus, keyword research makes the foundation for SEO.
So what should one do to optimize a site for specific keywords? First of all, it is necessary to research what people look for when they find your website. Understanding the customers’ behavior and main search trends in the market will provide a base for further on-site optimization. But learning your main keywords alone will not bring you to the top of SERPs. It is also necessary to be aware of the volume of competition and searches, possible keyword alternatives and popular misspellings.
Further on, as the trends may appear seasonal, average yearly results are not likely to give you a real picture. Yet that is not all. Keyword performance might also vary due to the differences in SE algorithms, and that is another factor to be taken into account when you do your keyword research. Least but not last, finding a LOT of keywords does not mean they will work for YOU.
