Acheieving a good ranking in search engines is a priority for all the marketers. And it is the key to online success as most searchers are interested in the sites and services which rank high.

Ahrefs has published a new study according to which the average #1 ranking page will also rank in the top 10 for nearly 1,000 other relevant keywords.

Advising marketers to get their pages rank well in search engines, Tim Soulo says, “As you can probably tell by looking at the above-mentioned outliers, the best way to rank for more keywords is to choose the right topic. Certain topics tend to have a huge search demand and a ton of relevant search queries, while others simply aren’t popular enough to provide you with a variety of keyword searches.

Research traffic potential

When planning your content, don’t just look at the search volume of the primary keyword you’re targeting. You should pull the top-ranking pages for that keyword and see how many other keywords they also rank for and how much search traffic it brings them”.
