The Importance Of Keywords Research

I have joined WA more than half year. I read a lot of post and training related to keyword and long tail keyword. I think I uderstand all. But, I am wrong.

Today, I study the following posts again.

Online Entrepreneur Certification Level 1 - Getting Started Understanding Keywords, The Start of Your Content

  • Rule #1: More than 30 monthly searches. You want your far left "Avg" column to ideally be greater than 30. Sometimes it is OK to go with a search volume less than this, but over 30 searches per month is ideal.

Online Entrepreneur Certification Level 2 - Building Your Own Traffic Producing Website Creating Keyword Rich Content

  • Over 30 avg searches
  • Less than 100 QSR/Competition
  • Makes grammatical sense

A Note On Long Tail Keywords

Understanding the Low Hanging Fruit

Then I discover my understanding of keywords research are totally wrong.

The posts I created before, all the title created based on wrong knowledge.

It's a good news or bad news for me?

Actually, it's really shock me much.

Along the way, I try my best to ensure what I learn is correct. Some topics, I will study again regularly. I hope I will get some new insights or ideas. This time, I get what I want. Suddenly, I understand the relationship between Avg and QSR.

Before, I always feel I have something miss although the explanation about those are simple. Then, I study again and again. I still find myself cannot fully understand.

Therefore, I don't understand why people always say keywords research are very important and how to do the correct keywords research.

But, this time, I believe I make it. I hope my understanding now is right. Don't be wrong again.
I hope everyone will not make the same mistake like me. It really waste a lot of time. Time is money. Everyone shouldn't waste it.

If you have same experience, please share with me by leaving below.

Thank you so much.
