What is Keyword Difficulty?

Keyword Difficulty (KD) - also known as SEO difficulty - measures how hard it is to rank high in Google search for a certain keyword.

To calculate it, you look at things like:

  • Authority of websites already ranking for that term

  • Quality of their content

  • Page Authority (PA)

  • How competitive that keyword is

Understanding keyword difficulty is essential for developing effective SEO strategies. It helps marketers identify keywords that offer better opportunities for ranking and optimizing their efforts accordingly.
