The Keyword strategy is the backbone of your SEO and also your competitor’s SEO. Knowing what keywords your competitors are targeting, you can adjust your tactics accordingly and beat them in their own game.

When you finalize your target keywords, you follow a process for On-Page SEO where you try to fit the targeted keywords in Title, Description, and Heading of the blog.

You also try to have the maximum frequency of these keywords on the page.

FURTHER INFORMATION

Smallseotools is a good tool but I do not recommend it to use as your primary SEO analysis tool. It may miss out on various new parameters added by Google due to lack of or slow updates. But for this specific hack, it really works great.
