This is the keyword you entered. While not all keywords are created equal, here are some tips for using the right keyword that’ll generate the most traffic:
- Do your research first. Put yourself in the mind of the customer. What would they search for?
- Be as specific as possible. We guarantee any generic term is already ranking . For example, rather than “cybersecurity for education”, you might have better luck using something more like “managed cybersecurity for UK private schools”

This is the URL we recommend based on your website URL and target keyword. Feel free to adjust accordingly (for example, if you need to add the subfolder /blog to make it make sense with the rest of your website, go for it!)
Not all pages should be blog posts. Depending on the keyword you’ve chosen and the pages from other sites you’re competing against, this page may be better suited as a sales page or a service page.
Based on your keyword, we’ll let you know where in the marketing funnel your readers will most likely be.
Blog post or landing page; that is the question. And we’ll give the recommended answer here.
Hey, don’t hate us if the recommended word count is somewhere in the 3000-word range. These numbers are purely based on your competitors whose pages are ranking for your keyword. We suggest getting as close to that word count as possible, but if you’re really struggling to meet that target and are starting to write fluff just to reach the number, stop where you are.
FYI, you really want to aim for at least 1300 words per page at least.
This is a list of relevant keywords that will support your page’s main keyword and let Google know that your content is really helpful and informative.
There’s a right way and a wrong way to create a web page. On-page SEO best practices is a combination of formatting, user experience (UX), and content. Use this section to help you create other pages in the future.
There’s more to a page than the content. You want to keep your readers engaged with visual elements as well, and depending on the keyword chosen, your page might benefit from other things like a table of contents, graphs, charts, or images.
But you also want your reader to do something once they’re finished reading, right? What is it you want them to do? What’s the most appropriate call to action for this page (hint: it has everything to do with where they are in the funnel)
You know these, right? This is how your page will appear as a search result on Google (so make sure the title is an exact match with your keyword).
We’ll give you a head start with an outline that’s based on how your competitors have used this keyword to rank.
The whole point of this brief is to help you outrank your competitor. The only way to do that is to reach their level and then exceed it. These supplemental keywords feature prominently in competing pages, which means you should be using them too.
As most of these phrases and single words are relevant to the subject, you’ll probably use most of them naturally, anyway; e.g.. how can you talk about the moon without at least mentioning Earth?
SEO is all about the links, baby. We’ll recommend relevant links from your site to include on the page, which the reader will most likely be interested in.
This is probably one of the most important sections of the brief. Here we show you the other pages you’re really competing against. Take as long as you want reviewing these pages. They have the secret formula for high rankings, so the more you can learn from them, the better.
Here’s a list of questions that your competitors have answered within their pages. While we don’t recommend turning your page into an FAQ (although you could include one at the bottom of your page), it’s important to understand what users are looking for.
We’ve included more heading suggestions in case you want to tweak or add to our suggested outline.
It can be hard to keep track of all this marketing jargon, so just in case you forget the difference between relevance and intent, we’ve got you covered.
