It’s the first time that I learn about the mistake of choosing keywords that are just too broad – well since nobody really thought me this subject I’m excited that I got the chance to read such quality information about SEO for free. Thanks!

That’s a really good point Brian. I think that a useful approach is to start by thinking about what problems your target audience is trying to solve. They don’t always know how to describe what they need to solve it, but they do know their problem. That may be a good place to start!

Christine,

I think a more challenging part of the process that begins before the keyword step is getting inside your customer’s heads. You talked about that in the beginning and I’m still struggling with that.

The challenge for me is trying to not only picture what the ideal client would look like but trying to understand how they would search for what I offer.

Part of it is the curse of knowledge…not being able to unlearn what I know about my business to approach it from the perspective of someone who needs my services but doesn’t know the lingo.

Thanks Tara! I hope this post is helpful for our PR clients – it’s amazing to think how much more effective most people’s press releases would be with just a little bit of time invested in strategic keyword research
