What's more important for outranking competition on 1st page?
- SEO |
I will be building my first site or two this weekend and I am currently doing the keyword research. I came across some very good keywords (or at least I think so) that get a lot of [exact] searches.
The market is a very fierce but lucrative one. For the keyword phrase I'm looking at though, there's only around 40,000 competing pages.
Using traffic travis' SEO Competition Analysis, it tells me that I can rank "relatively easy" but the results show 1 PR8, about 2 PR7, 2 PR5 and there's a few PR2 websites on the first page.
A lot of those results on the first page, only have around 300 or so backlinks and some have NO backlinks at all but the overall backlinks to the website is in the thousands.
I noticed that a lot of the websites in the results are not optimized for that keyword with Title, Description, H1 Tag, etc.
Could this be the reason Traffic Travis thinks it's easy to rank for this keyword phrase? It just seems a bit too good to be true. Especially taking into consideration I'm relatively new at keyword research lol.
Any insight into this will be much appreciated. Thanks.
