KEYWORD RESEARCH
Our team does extensive keyword research that allows us to find valuable keywords that would be beneficial for your business; we use advanced tools to find high-converting keywords that will drive leads and sales. Here are the following keyword types we target:
● Short-Tail Keywords
● Long-Tail Keywords

SHORT TAIL KEYWORDS
Short-tail keywords are between one to two words long, and receive hundreds/thousands of searches on Google. We find relevant short-tail keywords that would drive tons of traffic to your website. A good example is “SEO” or “SEO Services“.
LONG TAIL KEYWORDS
Long-tail keywords are between three to seven words long and receive fewer traffic searches on Google, however, these keywords usually have a much higher conversion rate than short-tail keywords. A good example is “SEO Services Johannesburg“.
PRODUCT KEYWORDS
Product keywords are specific product brands that people search for on Google. They do well as people have already made the purchase decision. We uncover these keywords and incorporate them into our campaign. A good example is “Nike Running Shoes”.
GEOTARGETED KEYWORDS
Geotargeted keywords are keywords with cities, suburbs or countries displayed next to them. Many people use geographic locations to find nearby companies, and surprisingly these keywords can have a lot of traffic searches. A good example is “Plumbing Company Johannesburg”.
