The number of keywords varies by the scope of research you order, but our deliverables typically include 100–500 carefully filtered and validated keywords, depending on your niche size and package. Unlike bulk keyword dumps that include irrelevant or unrealistic terms, every keyword in our report has been manually reviewed for relevance, intent, and rankability. Quality always outweighs raw quantity in our research methodology.

Standard turnaround time is 48–72 business hours from the time we receive your niche brief and any onboarding information. For larger or more competitive niches requiring extended competitor analysis, turnaround may extend to 5 business days. We always communicate timelines clearly upfront and send progress updates so you’re never left wondering about your order status.

Yes — to deliver the most relevant research, we’ll ask you to complete a short onboarding form covering: your website URL (if you have one), your main topic or niche, your target audience, 2–3 competitors you know of, and any specific topics or subtopics you’d like covered. This takes less than 10 minutes and makes a significant difference in the precision of your results.

Absolutely — in fact, low competition keywords are especially valuable for new websites. Since you haven’t built domain authority yet, targeting high-difficulty keywords is largely futile. We specifically identify keywords where sites with Domain Rating (DR) scores of 20–40 are already ranking, which means a new, well-optimized website can compete and often win within a few months of consistent content publishing.

We use a combination of industry-leading platforms including Ahrefs, SEMrush, Moz, Google Keyword Planner, Google Search Console data (when available), and Surfer SEO for content gap identification. Beyond automated tooling, every keyword goes through manual SERP validation — a step that automated tools simply cannot replicate — to ensure the competition data is accurate and the ranking opportunity is real.

Yes, absolutely. During onboarding, you can specify if you want keywords focused on a particular subtopic, geographic region, content format (like “how-to” articles, product reviews, comparison posts), or buyer journey stage (awareness vs. purchase intent). The more detail you provide, the more targeted and actionable your final keyword report will be. Custom focus requests are included at no additional cost.

Both approaches work. Many clients start with a one-time foundational research package to build their initial content strategy and editorial calendar. Others opt for monthly or quarterly refreshes to discover new keyword opportunities as their website grows, as search trends evolve, and as competitor landscapes shift. We recommend refreshing your keyword strategy every 3–6 months to stay ahead of algorithm changes and emerging topics in your niche.
