I've been teaching small classes for 25 years and you are a stud! I'm starting a new site and find your presentations informational, energetic, and though not intentional, entertaining (well I guess the karate game was funny! - I loved that game in the day. I'm 67).
Before this I did a 6 month SEO course, and started watching your tutorials along with the course. Your incomparable, I seek your advice from Bangladesh.
Hey, Sam Thanks for the reply. I'm talking about the actual tech moves. For example,. building your site connect your URLs to your home page. How everything technically comes together, Connecting the responder to squeeze page. I know it would be a long video if you provided all the details at once. Just the tech moves from your host to the responder to capture/squeeze page etc. Anyway, thanks much appreciated. Hey, one last thing your really good at teaching instructor/mentor. Precise to the point and easily understandable. I don't know how many times you had to do a retake but your good. lol I would take it to the next level. As a matter of fact I just scrolled down and read a couple of comments saying the same thing. lol
Impressive amount of informations with the best presentation!! Thank you for the effort you put in every video! You have the best team there! Best regards from Algeria!
Thanks from Germany! This will help my business a lot :) Signed up for the 7 days trial and will stay a customer ;) AWESOME work Sam. The tool together with the videos is the best education one needs
as well informative as always. But I actually love your 1 or 2 years ago tongue when you started your first tutorials. It sounds better, powerful, assertive. I get more alert watching.
AWESOME training tutorial. Just excellent. Wanted on piece of clarification. When you say "make a note of search intent" what exactly should we note down?
Search intent is the reason behind a searcher's query. When doing a keyword research and choosing your keyword you should check for their search intent and use the keywords according to the search intent. We have a bit more thorough video on search intent here: ruclips.net/video/zXPZ0L2cOw4/видео.html Maybe it'll help you :) -Helen
As a start-up, we are very pressed for finances. Do you think adding keywords and meta descriptions is something we can do ourselves now that our website is up? The cost for an SEO developer is outrageous for a startup. What are your thoughts? Great how-to videos!
ahref shows my keyword having KD of 2 that is low right! and suggests me to get backlinks from 3-4 websites to rank in top 10. but upon looking at the top 10 pages ranking for the keyword, all the websites are of e-commerce company with high DA but very few backlinks, so the question is while I, making a new affiliate website and managing to get 4-5 backlinks and also doing a decent on page SEO, be able to outrank these e-commerce pages?
Probably now. We estimate the number of backlinks that you need to rank for a keyword with your page by looking at backlink profile of top 10 ranking pages. It would be a close estimation if your site has close DR to your competitors. - Max
Thanks sam for that much effort on making best tuts , can you make more on broken link building because its difficult to get links for long tail keywords
This video (and all the others from Ahrefs) have been really helpful in understanding the tool, thank you. I've heard that when targeting keywords if the SERP show sites like Quora, Reddit, Pinterest, etc.., the competition to rank at the top is not too difficult. How true is this?
It is going to be a hard task to outrank giant websites with strong backlink profile. But I am sure there are some keywords where weak pages of these giants can be outranked if you optimize the page for search intent and work on linkbuilding. - Max
Love all your videos. I just paid for a subscription and I'm following along to find keywords to target for my brand new website I'm working on. S o this is the perfect video for me, but when it gets to 2:19 in the video and it says to click on "All keyword ideas" in the left hand column, there is no "All keyword ideas" in the left hand column anymore. I'm guessing the software has been updated since this video and I don't know what to do from 2minutes 20 seconds on... has it been moved, I can't find that option,... please advise, THANKS!
@@AhrefsCom I really appreciate you taking the time to respond. Ahrefs has an amazing reputation for being a top notch company, software suite etc.. and it's the little things like responding to comments that supports that reputation. Do you have any particular ahrefs videos you'd recommend to people doing keyword/topic or content research for a brand new website? I was hoping to find a playlist for people working without the luxury of an existing Google Console to pull suggestions from and into Ahrefs? Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you!
Hi! Just got Ahrefs. I'm wondering how big of a factor the domain name is, if it does not automatically convey the industry I am in (food and wellness). I'm at a point where I could change my domain name, but have grown to love it and others have come to recognize it as my site as well. Any advice would be helpful! Thanks
Hello Sam! Thanks for this great video! I have a question - I don't have this "all keyword ideas" option on my Ahrefs, What do I do? Thanks in advance All the best from Serbia
video is very nice, but i am beginer so for me its fast and could not get benefir more,could you explain step wise for make new website to get ranking.thanks
This is just what I needed. Getting an Ahrefs subscription soon. Could you kindly give a pointer: my business niche is Pool Table Lighting/Billiard Lights. What would my seed keywords be in this case?
I'm afraid I'm not too familiar with the niche to offer any good ideas. But you could always start off with what you're selling as a seed keyword 🙂 - SQ
Hi sam for a beginner can you explain (or refer to a blog/video tutorial on )impressions vs clicks on google console and how to convert impressions to clicks ? For eg i have written an article now i want to know the exact shortcoming which is not helping my clicks to increase ?

@@AhrefsCom Thanks For Your Valuable Answer. I Can't Afford Ahrefs 😂😂 But You Guys Give Full Informative Videos On RUclips. All Videos are Content Rich With Good Instructor 😁
Hi Sam, you try to say useful information but at the end it is just unclear, i do not understand what should i do after discovered parent topic has high KD while child topic is low KD, so then what should i do ?
Lets say you have 10 low competition keywords and Ahrefs shows you the same parent topic for these. Even though competition is higher for the parent topic itself, we inform you that you will still be able to rank for these 10 low KD keywords while targeting parent topic. In other words, we try to give a more broad topical keyword for you to cover a bigger piece of information, while still targeting low competitive keywords that you aim for. Hope that explains a bit. - Max
