Keywords & Trends In The Consumer Electronics Market
Whether you’ve lost some visibility and want to gain it back, or focus your SEO campaign this year, we’ve got some insights around keywords and trends that can help. First let’s start with keywords, those can be split into high-competition and opportunity.
High-competition keywords are those that are high in monthly search volume, but every brand is targeting it, making it harder to rank higher in the SERPs. Some examples in our online Consumer Electronics Marketing Report include: ‘phone’ with 62,000 SV but 79 competitiveness rating, followed by ‘mobile phone deals’, and ‘computer’.
Opportunity keywords are those that are also high in monthly search volume but low in competitiveness, making it easier to rank high. These tend to be more specific keywords, some in our Consumer Electronics Report are: ‘cheap phones’ with 11,000 SV and 31 competiveness, followed by ‘desktop computer’ and ‘washing machine’.
Trends in our Online Consumer Electronics Market Report is split into emerging and receding brands and products. For now, we will just cover a snippet of emerging products, a few of those are: ‘gaming pc’, ‘headphones’, and ‘phone shop near me’ which shows the importance of local SEO.
