How to Find Low-Competition Keywords (That Actually Convert)

Most “SEO Gurus” tell you to use expensive tools to find keywords with high volume.

But here is the truth: High volume usually means high competition.

If you are a new website, targeting “best credit card” is suicide. You will be crushed by Forbes, NerdWallet, and Bankrate. You need a smarter strategy.

The “Alphabet Soup” Method

This is the exact method our tool automates, but you can understand the manual principle first.

1. Go to Google.
2. Type your core niche, e.g., “running shoes for”.
3. Type “a”. Google suggests: “running shoes for flat feet”
4. Type “b”. Google suggests: “running shoes for beginners”

These suggestions are GOLD. Why? Because Google only suggests what people constantly search for.

The problem? Doing this manually for A-Z takes hours.

Intent matters more than Volume

Let’s say you find two keywords:

1. “what are running shoes” (1000 searches/mo)
2. “best running shoes for flat feet marathon” (50 searches/mo)

Which one should you pick?

The second one. The first user is just curious. The second user has a specific problem and is likely ready to buy a solution.

Automation is Key

Manually typing “a, b, c…” is boring.

Our NewKeyword Tool does this instantly. It cycles through the alphabet, letter by letter, grabs all those real Google Autocomplete suggestions, and then uses AI to analyze them.

Instead of just a list of words, you get:

• Difficulty Score: Can you rank?
• Intent Analysis: Are they buying or looking?
• Opportunity Score: Is it worth your time?

Stop guessing. Start digging.
