<h5>Title: How to Do Competitor Research to Generate Content and Raise Search Ranks on Google</h5>
<p>When your clients look for you on Google, on what page do you rank? Does your business rank highly for the keywords that matter for your business, and your industry? <span id="more-2359"></span></p>
<p>Research shows that businesses that rank below the first page of results on Google only receive 0.78% of the clicks. In fact, the first five organic search results account for over 67% of all clicks.</p>
<p><strong>Key Takeaways:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Competitor research:</strong> learn what industry peers do well</li>
<li><strong>Google search tools:</strong> keyword research, keyword competitiveness, popularity; missed opportunities / keywords for your niche; finding influencers, trending topics / interests in your industry</li>
<li><strong>Finding current search rank:</strong> discovering keywords that can rank high based on competitiveness</li>
<li><strong>Generating marketing content:</strong> social media content, website content</li>
<li><strong>Content optimization (SEO):</strong> keywords in title, headings, image alt tags, content readability</li>
<li><strong>Google My Business for local area customers:</strong> updating information, getting reviews</li>
<li><strong>Using Google Ads:</strong> cost-per-click, ad quality, and landing page experience</li>
</ul>
<p>In this workshop, we present ways to do keyword research on Google. Marketers must use discretion, choosing the most relevant keywords for their brand and business. Doing so requires research into the popularity and competitiveness of keywords, to determine which are over-saturated and which present an opportunity.</p>
<p>Often, ranking higher for niche keywords that are more pertinent to your business can yield impressive results. During this informational session, we discuss tips to help you achieve this goal. In addition, you’ll learn ways to boost your business rank on Google search results: using social media content generation strategies and search engine optimization (SEO).</p>
