Wow! You must be a teacher! Awesome information for this teacher! Your tutorial was very helpful. I listened and took notes like I was sitting in a class. You have made the most detailed sense of all videos I have watched (and I've searched through many). I truly appreciated your opening statement that this was NOT going to be a waste of time with personal tips but actual INFORMATION. I am definitely going to follow you, Sam. Thanks again!

Hi sam, This is the only video which is covering everything of SEO. Keyword research, Killer Content Building, On Page seo, Off page seo and more extra secret tips. Really appreciate to your work and post. The hard thing is to create a video like this, showing to mark each steps and adding and placing arrows and lines that's super hard, it's taking 3-4 Hour to edit a single video. you are great as i'm saying always

[@hellocourage]

it's really good stuff and easy to follow. If the keyword has high volume, but the CPC is very low (say, $0.40-$0.50), does this really matter? What's the best way to even know if the main service is in demand?

[@AhrefsCom]

I would personally use CPC as a metric if you are using Adsense for monetization or are an Adwords advertiser. In general, if people are bidding a good amount on a keyword phrase, chances are, there is some kind of commercial value.

[@ANUPAMSETHI]

What a nice explanation! Thanks for this.... Also tell My question A blogpost of example.com ranks at #1 for head and 100 other related long tail keywords. We choose 1 long tail keyword out of those 100 and publish article on mysite.com. How mysite.com will be successful at ranking 1-10 SERPs whereas example.com also ranking on the same long tail keyword #1.

Question. If the clicks are abnormally low compared to search volume, couldn't that mean no one is currently answering their questions? If you then write a blog that answers their question, all that search volume would click on your result on the SERP. Yes?

[@AhrefsCom]

That could be a possibility. Keyword selection should work on a case-by-case scenario. This video is meant to give you the concepts, principles and common examples you may come across.

What should be the acceptable CTR? does the acceptable CTR varies with topic to topic?

Hey, Max is here! I consider anything higher then 2% to be a good CTR when talking about AdWords. It does vary for each topic though, but would not change more then ~1%. I recommend to watch our video on increasing CTR - kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKKooI2pfrSlj9k

[@AhrefsCom]

Hi Taha. If you're new to SEO, I recommend digging through this playlist first - kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqfahGqZi556o7M The first video in particular should be helpful. This video where you left a comment is a little bit more advanced. You should have the basic fundamentals under your belt first. After you're done watching the first playlist, check out some of our "big SEO tutorials" in this playlist. The knowledge won't come overnight, but these two playlists should teach you a lot. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hWiYpmmmZ9l3b6c

[@andyellis7411]

I have a question seeing as though it is mentioned. If you had an ecommerce site, would you make a wordpress blog on a subdomain so you could have a 'magazine's type design that wasn't sales looking in an effort to get more links from outreach or would you integrate the blog to the ecommerce site so the customer can better find products and you should have better conversion?? Which would you go for if all wad even and both templates looked nice........ more links and maybe add some call to action snippets to articles after with a wordpress magazone blog or would you look to get better conversion from visitors by keeping the sales sites top menu and sidebar but potentially turn off those your outreachif to as it's more obviously sales driven????

[@AhrefsCom]

The design is up to you :) Lots of ways to approach this so you would have to experiment which works best for you.

[@videomarket9367]

tell us something if we dont use ahrefs tool, now how can we rank our website ?

Do what's taught in the video and replace any parts we use Ahrefs with what you can afford. If you want free keyword research tools, you can watch this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKinZpebdtaKabs I think I highlight the difference between free vs. paid tools. You'll get what you pay for, but if you're just starting out, free tools isn't a bad way to start.
