How to find low-competition keywords

Targeting long-tail keywords and using the right filters is the most effective way to find low-competition keywords.

Use long-tail keywords: Search for long, specific phrases or sentences instead of short words. For example, instead of "digital marketing," type "how to learn digital marketing for beginners."

Use Google Autocomplete: When you type a topic into Google and pause in the search box, the suggestions that appear are less competitive and specific.

Check Google Related Searches New and easy keyword ideas can be found from related searches at the very bottom of the search page.

Filter by Keyboard Difficulty (KD): If you use a tool like Semrush or [Ahrefs], filter by setting the keyword difficulty score to 30 or less (KD < 30).

Use free tools: List keywords with low competition and a certain search volume using [Google Keyword Planner] or [Ubersuggest].

Do competitor analysis: Find out which low-volume or easy-to-rank keywords your competitors are using.
