Keyword Difficulty Analyzer
Understand how hard it would be to rank for any keyword with our accurate Keyword Difficulty metric based on referring domains analysis.
What is Keyword Difficulty?
Keyword Difficulty is a metric that helps you understand how hard it would be to rank for a particular search query in organic search results. Unlike 'Competition' in Google Keyword Planner (which refers to paid search), Keyword Difficulty applies specifically to organic rankings.
Our Keyword Difficulty metric analyzes the search results for a keyword and examines the number of referring domains the top 10 ranking pages have. In simple terms, the more referring domains across the top ranking pages, the higher the Keyword Difficulty.
The metric evaluates the chances of getting into the top 10 search results (not just top 3 or #1). While backlink profiles and content relevancy are primary factors, many additional ranking elements come into play among first-page results.
