Competitive keyword research is a crucial part of any SEO strategy. It’s vitally important to understand what your competitors are ranking for, so that you can identify the most relevant keywords in your niche or industry.
But before you begin your quest to find new keywords, you need to know exactly who your competitors really are. You might have some idea of who your closest competitors are, but on closer inspection, they may be different. Finding out which sites appear most often alongside your own can give you a fantastic insight into who you’re competing against for valuable keywords.
Moz Pro’s competitive research tools allow you to find out exactly who your competitors are, what keywords they rank for and what their top performing content is. You can then use this information to create high-quality content that can compete against what your competitors have published, and get you more traffic to your site.
In the following videos, some of our best and brightest Mozzers will show you what you need to do to get the most out of these tools.
