In this video, I'm going to walk you through the critical first step to succeeding with SEO - keyword research.

But before we get into that, let’s back up a step.

What is keyword research? It’s the process of finding keywords that customers search for and gives insight into the exact words and phrases they use.

In many ways, keyword research is the most important part of SEO. This is because keyword research impacts every other SEO task that you perform.

Think of keywords as a compass for your SEO campaigns. They tell you where to go and whether or not you’re making progress.
