Hi, I'm building xfactor micro niche sites. I've found 3 good keywords (the only one that has a domain name available is the one getting the most searches, so its good; the other ones have no domain names available, and I don't wanna add words) and 3 other keywords. So I can make a website with 6 good pages. My best keyword (which is also the domain name) gets 6k searches a month and has ~10k competition, but I checked the top SEO competition on market samurai, and #1 is a pr3, #2 is a pr1, and lots of pr2's.

I dont think I could be #1, as its a website that apparently has this keyword on its homepage, and has 1k+ backlinks to that page. #2 seems easy to get, as it only has 1 backlink to that page, and as I said previously has a PR1. But all of the websites are old, so I really don't know what to do.

I can't choose another keyword as my domain name because there is none available, maybe the other ones but they dont get searched much as my best keywords.

btw the top seo competition for the other keywords has alot of pr0 sites.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

    Pr has nothing to do with whether you will rank above them , PR0 sites kick the **** out of PR3 site all the time its nothing to be scared of.

    Also just because they have 1k backlinks have you actually looked to see what anchor text those backlinks have ? it could be something silly like a Header tag or keyword domain which is boosting this sites rank rather than Backlink strength. Do some proper research and find out exactly how many backlinks contain your competing anchor text and what kind of authority these sites linking to your competitor has.

    Nothings impossible especially searches that only have 10k worth of indexed pages for that phrase , i would imagine that only the first couple of pages of that 10k are the only relevant ones too ?

      Hmmm #1 has only the keyword in its title (nothing in its header, url or description). #2 has the keyword everywhere and has PR1. I assume #1 has good backlink strength.

      In google, should I search with quotes ""? Because market samurai gives me a different top10 as when I search "keyword" in google, or even without the quotes. It's really weird...

      I never really deep search as I follow clickbump's techniques. If I see many pr0-1 websites in top10, and the keyword has low competition, I grab the keyword (if the domain name is available).

    Whatever you have keywords and PR it's doesn't matter. But matter is that how many back links and how much traffic you have on your targeted keywords. I mean your keywords would be strong when you get more back links in popular dofollow directories and sites.
