Leaving Work Behind

SEO Strategy Series: Keyword Research & Competition Analysis Mastery

Last Friday, I started work on what I thought would be a modest article on keyword research and competition analysis, with the intention of publishing it today. It quickly turned into an absolute beast that is currently over 5,000 words long (and counting).

As such, I have had to postpone its publication until Wednesday, and am taking this opportunity to shamelessly promote it!

I don’t consider myself an expert on keyword research and competition analysis, but I do know a fair bit. I have researched rather a lot of keywords in my time, and ranked no. 1 in Google for several small – medium competition keywords. So I think I can help those who are looking for guidance.

More importantly (I think), there is no definitive keyword research and competition analysis guide out there. Plenty of people have created excellent tutorials specific to certain disciplines (e.g. niche sites), but I haven’t noticed any in-depth guides relating to the underlying principles that I believe should be focused on when carrying out keyword research and competition analysis.

As you might have gathered from the title, I intend this to be part of a series. I am not holding myself to any deadlines and will only write on topics that I am fully comfortable with. Most importantly, I make absolutely no excuse for the fact that I am not an “expert”, or a “guru”. I just have what I think is good advice to share with others, and you can decide whether or not it is worth your time!

So, stayed tuned for Wednesday, when I will be releasing my free “Keyword Analysis & Competition Analysis Mastery” eBook!
