Check my keyword - small advise required

[mystique07]

as others have already mentioned you are only showing one side of the coin,the other side is your website which is also important. just because a KD is less does not mean that you can write a better article and rank in top 10.
your website's age, domain rating also matters.

on a separate note, depending only on these keywords rating alone will not ensure that your article will be in top 10. there are lots of people who just write an article with the right keywords and rank in top 10, earn affiliate commissions, ad commissions etc. so go ahead and write it. wait for some time to get indexed after which you can update based on the queries searched for that topic using GSC

Well except for long tail keyword.
Even if there is a keyword difficulty of 0, it will take at least 3 month to be in the top 10 for a young website

The sites you are going up against you got no chance of outranking them unless your already an authority in jobs market and if you where I doubt you would be here (no offence!) its going to take a bit of effort to get anywhere near that without spending money and time.. It's not going to be easy sorry.

This is another example of the data getting it wrong.

Even the longer tail stuff I just looked at is going to be hard. Can you get your stuff listed in google jobs?

Only way I could think about doing it would be to create a decent information page about Aberdeen, average journey time, cost of lunch, average wage etc that kind of thing anything related around the jobs and then have on that page a list of specific categories i.e part time jobs Aberdeen and so on and of course have actual jobs listed..

Look at the snippet data google is pulling in and displaying for the branded pages as well and see if you can include similar data if not better data on the page.. ideally nothing thats stuck behind a "sign up" wall.

for the sake of this thread, check this keyword; Its Keyword difficulty is only 8 in AHREFS but see the top 10 URLS.
is it possible to rank for it easily?

User intent plays a major role and someone searching for "jobs in xxxx uk" are clearly searching for a new job in the area. The competition have already established authority, and would be difficult to outrank for these type of head terms.

However, if your willing to put in the research and writing work you can target easy to rank long tail keywords like "hgv driving jobs aberdeenshire". You start with these type of easy keywords, and then when your site is more established go for more difficult ones.

In the UK jobs niche you also have to contend with the "Jobs" 3 pack Google shows from various sites, so learn how to optimize for inclusion from the get go with schema mark up.

I will say you have not done any research here to determine if you could rank for that particular keyword. There are other metrics to check and you need o know how strong the top 10 sites already ranking for the keyword are

Now since the top 10 sites look very strong then why this AHREF is giving false hope to people?
I checked one URL backlink and found out that it is from some Japanese sites.

It's not so much that. They don't have enough data to run a solid conclusion. You should be 100% trusting on the results they give you, id also recommend googling what ever keywords they have and see what page 2 & 3 are like should give you a clear idea of competition if it's all authority / branded stuff on there as well.

Not saying it can't but done but it's not going to be "easy"

You *might* be able to get up there but its going to take a strong on page as well as a decent backlink profile.

With a new website is going to take you anywhere from 6 to 8 weeks.

Don't always rely on the metrics, you should do research to conclude, check the top 10 results before making any decision

very useful information. Can u suggest how to catch some keywords which give organic traffic since I want to create adsense website for 2/3 USD per day only.
keywords which we can rank maybe in 2-3 weeks max.

Update:

I used a method here on BHW and scraped the keywords & check, if I try to outrank the keywords of this website, is it possible to rank???

2-3 weeks would be a churn and burn effort I think... I don't think there is much in the job advert niche that's going to get you an organic listing that quickly unless you widen the gap a little bit and start writing about "how to land a job in (insert specific industry) and town" so its very laser-focused.

THE Only other option I can think about for quick results as far as the UK is concerned as an example (assume UK due to Aberdeen) is to avoid the citys or big town names and go for all the little villages or smaller towns. Take South Wales for example rather than trying for:

jobs in cardiff

id go for

jobs in porth rhondda cynon taff

And I only suggest that's a bit easier as there are a few duplicate URLs on there i.e same results from the same domain so to me that tells me that google hasn't found something the user wants, so if you build some info page around that area and list jobs within that town or even jobs within X miles you might have a chance of getting someplace in a very short time frame.

Either way, I don't know much about "BlackHat" I think i could rank for some of these KWs and city locations but it would be "Whitehat" and would take me much longer than a few weeks..

Good Luck

Awesome information. Black hat & white combined produces great results.

Getting to top 10 itself is a struggle. Depends on sites you're competing with.

From the details you have shared, that seems like a very juicy keyword. You should grab it right away and get started. But ranking in 1 week is a little optimistic. Google indexing has issues; currently, there will be some delay. Also, there several other SEO parameters (like DA, site age, site history, spam score) that will determine how high or/and fast your content ranks.
