This a keyword worth going for?

I've been doing some keyword research for Amazon products, and came across this one:



As you can see, nearly every site on the first page of Google has little to no "juice page links", and the page authority averages 21. This combined with:

- 2,400 monthly exact searches
- "Buying keyword" (people search the term because they are looking to buy it online)
- The product on amazon sell for $300-400, which means, on the lowest affiliate level, I'd get roughly $15 commission.

My only worry is that the websites on the front page are pretty authoritative sites, e.g. Amazon, eBay, and others within the broader market (can't say as it could give away the keyword).

From the experienced SEO artists, would you consider this a keyword which I should pursue?

    That screenshot doesn't help. All that moz stuff is gimmicks.

    Check the entire site/domain page titles of the #1 ranked page for same similar keywords. Check the existing ranked pages for internal/external link anchor-text targeting the keyword.

      Are there any helpful tools that can easily check external anchor-text links?

    6/10 of them have the same keyword in their descriptions (none in their domains).

    According to Ahrefs, the top 10 have the follow backlinks:

    1) 0
    2) 4
    3) 0
    4) 0
    5) 2
    6) 5
    7) 3
    8) 3
    9) 30
    10) 12 (but that links to the home page where it doesn't have the exact keyword in the title, description, or page)

    Only 2 sites in the top 10 list have the exact keyword inside their pages; it's all partial.
