Hi Sam, as you said in the end of last video that we would revisit the example of Golf bags where there are mixed results in SERP. I also saw this complete video but its not discussed in this one as well. Please let me know if we should still consider this keyword's intent as Commercial and write blog post on that? Or we should consider its intent as Transactional and needs to create Ecommerce category page on it?

[@ashish1584]

seriously so amazing this tool is and the way you explain is just wow. Loved It

Glad you liked it! -Helen

[@SEOTOMICS]

@@AhrefsCom before your video I always have done it after downloading and making it my FILTER options of EXCEL - your new ORGANIC KEYWORD page makes it much easier to not use downloading limit. it's great. please, could you show more short very short video about each bar for each page of ahrefs, because, to find proper second from youtube time line videos it's also takes time, will be great if you make for each bar element special short 30 second video. that will be awesome. for example until now I dont know how to use all SERP features when which one is prefered or cannot be used for special case. thank you!

[@mahaabhiratnajitjadhav]

Thanks for insights.

Why choose above 300 searchs/month when there are many high-converting commercial intent products with 10 volume?

[@arieshben]

what is the ideal number of keywords that should be entered into our website? is there any limit?

[@allwynmathias856]

If 300 can be taken up as an ideal no. for search demand, what should be the ideal minimum no. for traffic volume ?

[@AhrefsCom]

There is no minimum # for traffic. That's entirely up to you and SERP CTR can be influenced by SERP features, intent etc. -Sam

[@alijee9443]

i found some low search volume keywords but when i search them high authority sites are ranking in the top, but no one use the exact keyword in title so should i go through with these keywords ? because when i use allintitle very low authority sites and pinterest are ranking in the top

Depends on the search intent and if it does match, why not? There are no rules on what kind of title tags you can't use. - SQ

is there any free tools caus now i can't buy a paid tools?

[@atultanna]

When we go to kw explorer we have different options on the left When do we use which options

They're different reports that show you different keyword ideas. There's no best report. It depends on what you're looking for. - SQ

How u find business potential metric of keyword “best golf balls”as 3?

[@AhrefsCom]

It's subjective. If you sell golf equipment like clubs, balls, etc., then "best golf balls" would be a "3" since you can easily promote your own products. - SQ

[@saimashuja7054]

What do u mean by organically recommended product? Time stamp 6:34

[@AhrefsCom]

It's in the context of "organically recommend products." Meaning, naturally recommend products. For example, "best golf clubs" will have search intent where users are looking to compare clubs. So therefore, the post will naturally have to include product recommendations. If you missed the lesson on search intent, then I recommend watching that. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sImzi2OCZ8iCrZY -Sam

Why did sand wedge and fairway woods stand out immediately.? I really don't think that I'm that slow but you are flying past things that you mention and I don't have a chance to absorb the why and what etc even if I replay it over and over. If you really want to teach and expect us to learn , it would be if you could slow down and use highlighters that can be seen ,just to see where you are and what it is you are referring to. I'll be honest this is not helping much. But there's always Miles Beckler and Gael Breton, I just thought I'd get another point of view from the creators of Ahrefs but that's not working here. No offense ,just giving some honest critical feedback. I do appreciate the effort though, honestly.

[@AhrefsCom]

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try and answer your questions here: Sand wedge and fairways woods stand out because it's being talked about in the context of finding new seeds. Earlier in the video, I say: "One downside to using keyword research tools is that the list of keyword ideas will usually be limited to words and phrases that include your seeds. But there are other GREAT keywords that won’t necessarily include them." So if we were to search for "golf" in Keywords Explorer, the phrase match report would only show keywords that include that seed in it. Queries like "best sand wedge," and "how to hit a fairway wood" wouldn't be available in the reports. Hence, running a new search with different seeds. Pace of content: We do our best to control pace of the video. If it was slower, people might complain that I'm speaking too slowly. You can try slowing down the playback speed to 0.75x if you find it's too fast or rewatch parts that may need a second watch. Use highlighters: I believe we did this? We also added spotlights. No offense taken from your comments. If you find that Miles or Gael are better teachers, by all means, follow them. They're both great gentlemen :) -Sam

[@JohnODonovan1]

@@AhrefsCom Thanks Sam, and what I appreciate about hearing from 3 people instead of just one is that sometimes someone will say something in a few seconds that might explain whats been confusing for months from another source. I suppose that's why I still haven't committed to one relationship ☺️ and gotten married. And everything you have to say is quality stuff but sometimes in this field, there's so much to take in especially at the end of a workday. Anyhow if I can used to Gael I can used to anyone. 😂
