I run a niche focused real estate website in NJ and this topic of what the best keywords are is something I think about on a daily basis. Thanks for the tips and keep up the good work!

Thanks for commenting. As far as your question goes, it’s relative to what you are trying to accomplish. Here’s what I mean.

After you compile your list of keywords, you’ll notice a certain trend of how many searches a keyword has compared to the # of competing pages on the internet.

For instance, let’s say you find several keyword with the following searches (off the top of my head):

Keyword #1: 1,000 searches (31,000 competing pages)
Keyword #2: 500 searches (4,000 competing pages)
Keyword #3: 420 searches (2500 competing pages)
Keyword #…. etc.

As you can see, keyword #1 has the most searches but it will be most difficult to attack because there are 31,000 competing pages. Don’t disregards it though as you many use it as one of your main keywords (depending on what the rest of the list looks like).

However, if you were to make a decision between keywords #2 and #3, #3 will be a better choice even though you get less searches. Why? Because you can get your page on the 1st page of Google and possibly as the 1st listing much faster.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

That means a lot to me. Whenever I write anything on BiggerPockets, my blog, teach my coaching students or anything else for that matter, I always try to provide a clear and actionable content.

I believe that as a society living in the 21st century, there is soooooo much information out there that if we don’t prioritize, focus and create clear and actionable ways to build our businesses, our businesses will suffer and the competition will take over.

Thanks again and I wish you much success in the New Year!

I must say, this is one of the most well written articles that I have read in about a month. I have been reading dozens and dozens of articles and commenting on them as I recently started my own blog a little over a month ago. Your article is my favourite thus far.
Thanks for producing this quality content.

Onwards and Upwards,
