SEO Trust Center

Keyword Research Methodology

Intent, topical authority, and semantic depth \u2014 not density.

Search intent

Every target query is classified by intent (informational, navigational, transactional, commercial) before content is planned.

Topical authority

We map clusters of related queries to a coherent body of work rather than chasing isolated head terms.

Semantic relationships

We design content around entities, sub-topics, and questions a knowledgeable expert would naturally cover.

User needs

Final scope is shaped by what users actually need to accomplish — not by keyword volume alone.

What we do not recommend

Keyword density targets, exact-match repetition, and tactics that prioritize machine pattern-matching over readability.
