If there are users here i would like to know the following .

I started a new website . Building some links slowly on a low competitive keyword .
The SEOT on the keyword is 50 so 50 visitors if on page 1 .
So i was wondering what the max of competion you guys will face for a keyword .
A keyword with 100.000 visitors is a big nono but how far do you go ?

  • High traffic does not necessary mean high competition.

    Very strong competition indicator are Google's omitted search results.

    1. Type your keyword into Google with quotes " " (and hit search duh!)
    2. move to the last results page (SERP)
    3. notice the number of omitted results

    Something like this:
    Google omitted the results to the [NUMBER] of most relevant ....


    That is your true competition. Now, I found through testing that most of the time keywords below with competition below 450 are doable. You can rank within a few weeks (maybe only some days in some cases)

    Of course keyword research is a much more complex problematic but this will give some idea.

  • To expand in Tiib, also manually go through the top 3 sites and look out for other NEW niche sites that are targeting the same keywords. Don't go chasing after rankings where people have a large PBN or extremely strong authority.

    • thank you for clearing this out !

      EDIT: btw when i search with "keyword" i see my website on the first page and also some of my backlinks .
      and on a normal search i see my website on page 6 .

      What does that mean ?

      And

      Google omitted the results to the [NUMBER] of most relevant . What number should i be looking for and perhaps avoid .
