[NEED HELP] Keywords Have Low Search Volume, Profitable?

Hello BHW-ers!

Months ago, I purchased a domain and hosting. It's about a couple of guides and roadmaps to fellow online workers and self-employed people, to state to you a general overview of what it is.

Now, while I was doing keyword research, I noticed that almost all my seed keywords have search volumes of about 100 - 1K...

Now, Im not sure if it's something I should go for? I havent made a lot of content yet due to work but do you think it'll be profitable?

I know a lot of people are looking for it but the volume isn't that great.

Need your opinions please

Thank you!

Yes, low-competitive keywords rank faster so it'd be profitable for your website. It'll improve the position. And when you start to rank for low competitive keywords ,you might as well start ranking for high competition ones too!

Does the CPC of the keywords matter when choosing it?

CPC gives an indication of the popularity of the keyword from an ads point of view.

OP,
Low hanging fruit is sometimes easier to rank and convert than huge search numbers, especially if it's buyer intent search terms.

If term ' Blue Widgets' has search numbers of 25k some people will go after that. But this will attract a lot of tyre kickers, people looking to see what these items are etc etc

If the term " Blue Widgets for mark 3 lefthand widget holder "has search numbers of 500 but the chances are people here are looking to buy these products - You have a chance to rank for this and it'll probably convert better than a very broad generic term.

That actually depends on the way you gonna monetize it,
if you're using Ads, it gonna be something useless,
however, if you're using some aff network with good commission, you can actually have some good profits
