Get long-tail keywords
You should never rely solely on top keywords. Of course, the most popular keywords have the biggest search volume; however, every day, thousands of your potential customers use small-volume search terms for their queries. These types of keywords are called long-tail keywords, which represent about 70% of all search traffic.
SEMrush collects keywords with a search volume of at least ten queries per year. You can display your results in SEMrush Keyword Research Reports in ascending order by volume and get long-tail keywords. Since there is less competition for low-volume keywords is less intense, their use will allow a website to easily obtain higher rank.
