Are zero volume keywords actually worth targeting?

Keyword tools often show low or zero search volume but some of these keywords can bring highly targeted visitors. I am curious how others approach these keywords.
Do you ignore low volume terms or do you create content around them when they match user intent?
I Never ignore low volume keywords if the intent is strong. Those pages often convert better and help build topical authority over time.
 
Keyword tools rely on laggy clickstream data that constantly misses long-tail queries—"zero volume" in Ahrefs or Semrush almost never means zero impressions in Search Console. However, if it actually fits your niche and has conversion potential, why skip it?
 
Aim for them since you will also get ranked on similar keywords.
