Hey everyone,
I could use some advice to make sure I’m on the right track:
- Backlinks are a key ranking factor.
- Quality content alone might not outrank a site with strong DA.
Given this, it seems like my best approach would be to target keywords occupied by competitors with a similar or lower DA and then focus on creating better content.
Up until now, I’ve only looked at the KD (Keyword Difficulty) score on Semrush for targeting. But I’ve realized that considering competitors’ DA might be crucial too.
Most of my top competitors have a KD of around 30 in my niche. Is that a challenging score to compete with?
