Frequently asked questions
Score how hard it is to rank for a keyword.
How is difficulty calculated?
We check the top 10 results and score them on authority, content depth and backlinks.
What if my keyword scores over 60?
Keywords over 60 are dominated by established sites with strong backlink profiles. It is not impossible to rank for them, but it requires a long-term content and link-building programme. Consider targeting a long-tail variation with a lower difficulty score first, then expand once your site has more authority.
