Keyword research is a crucial step in any SEO strategy, but just manually analyzing Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs) can be time-consuming and often yields incomplete or inaccurate results. That's where LowFruits come in \u2013 designed to simplify the keyword research process by providing instant insights into SERP data, including weak spots and ranking difficulty. In this comparison, we'll take a closer look at how manual analysis works, and then show how LowFruits provides a more efficient and effective way to identify weak spots in the SERP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take the keyword “best car for doordash” as an example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Upon manually examining the SERP, you'll observe:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. A low-authority website (DA = 1) is in the second position.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Another low DA (DA = 1) is also in the sixth position.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. And so on…<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    These instances serve as indicators of “weakness<\/strong>” in the SERPs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    These suggest that a new or low-DA website has a strong chance of ranking at the top for this keyword<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You can improve your search engine rankings by identifying and targeting such keywords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \ud83d\udca1 DA, or Domain Authority, is a metric used to assess the authority and ranking potential of a website.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

    SD<\/strong> = SERP difficulty Score.
    SD is a score that assesses the ranking difficulty, considering the number of weak websites and other factors.
    A value of 1 indicates that the keyword is easy to target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There are two other levels of SD: 2 and 3, with 3 indicating a high-difficulty keyword.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Green fruit icon (weak spot)<\/strong> = website with low authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    SERP filters<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    When analyzing keywords in bulk, use the SERP analysis filters<\/strong> to navigate the results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The primary filters you'll want to use are SD<\/strong> and # Weak (number of weak websites)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Top 10: At least one weak spot in the top 10 search results.
    Top 3: At least three weak spots in the top 10 search results.
    DA < 10: At least one weak spot with a DA below 10 in the top 10 search results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The “Filter” button on the right provides access to more advanced filters for in-depth SERP analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
