The cruel truth about SEO specialists.
Very, very many people think that they know how to promote websites: to collect semantics, do a competent structure and re-linking.
The practice shows that at the first stage most likely 98 of 100 SEOs will act primitively, the same primitively.
The good news – all fairly quickly and easily fixable
How to find long tail keywords with the help of competitors
The first thing to do is trying to beat the competitions on their own keywords. To do this, go to Ahrefs, section Top Pages and choose a victim.
If you have not paid account Ahrefs, you can do the same through SemRush, https://www.semrush.com/info/bestreviews.com+(by+organic_uniq_urls)
Results will not be enough, but it’s much better than nothing.
Next upload everything in Excel and handles look interesting words. For example:
- google schema checker
- google rich snippet tester
- schema markup tester
- google microdata test
- google structured data testing tool
We throw all them in Kparser.com and click Start.
As a result, we get quite a few keywords – our sowing phrases are already long tail keywords with low search volume.
If we will use the broader phrase, such as schema checker, we’ll get a lot of garbage.
So, we have next two options:
- Use a broad phrase + filters (Advanced filters -> Positives and add words google, microdata, markup – all those are related exactly to our key);
- Take another key group as in the following example.
URL in the image below top ranked on 4327 keywords. The semantics of such a page is better not to expand and break up on your own site into multiple pages. Query group – tags for youtube.
Our goal is not just copy the words of competitors and significantly expand the semantics and to obtain positions on a wide pool of low demand.
Ahrefs or any such instrument does not show you all of the keywords, so if you have access to other tools – Semrush / Spyfu / something.., be sure to upload long tail keywords from all them and combine the data.
By the way, under the new pricing policy Semrush, $ 200 for ACC, SpyFu can be a very good alternative. It costs $ 49 / month, has a large base, and on adwords data is one of the best on the market.
Then look by our eyes on the data:
– what can be replaced by synonyms? (synonyms are best found in Google; input keywords, watch what words are highlighted)
– is there any Intents? (input keys, look for what words are highlighted)
If there are a lot of keywords, or you are too lazy, words can be grouped in Groupper tool.
It will take your list of keywords and break into separate words:
Most importantly: what to do with the list of founded keywords?
The first, we divide them into separate words.
The second, we add these keywords to the content of our pages, from the frequency to a reasonable quantity.
Let’s take, for example, a list of words from the screen above. In this case, it is necessary to add:
- youtube
- tags
- keywords
- tool
- generator
- best
- ideas
Words should be used in Title / H1, an example

Words from phrases can be found in the text, in any order and at any distance from each other.
For the phrase “Best tags for youtube”“Generate tags, titles and description based on these topics for your YouTube videos. Kparser is the best alternative to ..”
In the theory, the longer a word to each other, the less weight of the phrase, which they constitute we have. In the practice, it has no significant effect.
If we have not the page right now, so we need to break the keywords separately for every page.
This process draws on a number of separate articles, but the general algorithm is as follows:
1) we select a group of the main keywords – the most competitive,with high frequency (tags for youtube, best tags for youtube)
2) then we highlight all occurrences of these keywords and their synonyms from all phrases (good tags for youtube, good – synonymous with best), define them on one page, let’s called it Home page. Home page will link to other pages within the same group of keywords.
3) after that, we represent a group of keywords s in a table of contents. Is the keyword best youtube tags for gaming can be used for single page? Yes, it is.

How to find long-tail keywords with the names of the cities/states?
For local queries using cities and state names is also effective. You can do this on the tab Additional words. We tick the Custom text and paste into the field our values.
Do not forget to turn off Alphabets, otherwise parsing may be delayed. Most likely, it’s better to substitute cities’ names after the phrase. So, press the checkbox After. Here is a raw statistics for 2016 – https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/popest/data/data-sets.html, you can parse data you need.
Using Before/After tab in the keywords research
This checkbox inserts additional words or characters before or after sowing phrases. As a rule, the number of results BEFORE strongly lower than the number of AFTER. Using both of these modes can increase the number of long tail words about 20%.
Besides standard substitution in the form of alphabet, you can also substitute the letter combination, for example:
- aa
- from
- ac
- ..
- zz
This approach allows you to get an additional set of long tail keywords, in some cases – increases their number on some levels. Now it is possible to make throwing a file with substitutions in the <Custom text. In the future we plan build macros directly in the Kparser.
