What is Keyword Research?

Before understanding this, we have to understand what are keywords. Whenever we do some search in the search engine, we do it through a sentence made of some words or group of words. For example, we searched on Google like, “Top 10 Blogs in Pakistan”. So this is a keyword. Likewise, millions of people search on Google or any other search engine every day with the help of keywords. Now what happens is that many people search for the same keyword. For example, there are thousands of searches for a particular keyword.

Now if we want that we publish a blog post on that keyword on our blog, and gain traffic from that search engine query, then what do we have to do?

Your blog post will have to optimize SEO for that keyword. If you know how to do basic on-page SEO, you can do it easily.

Keyword research means finding some good keywords to rank your blog or website in the search engine. Now let me tell you that some keywords are such whose searches are very much, but many people have already targeted that keyword, then it is difficult for us to rank in it. So it is called SEO competition. So in keyword search, we have to find such keywords whose searches are also sufficient and competition in them is less.
