 The keyword difficulty is your basis in determining how hard the keyword is in terms of ranking it on Google. The higher the keyword difficulty is, the harder it is to rank.

 I wouldn't try to rank specifically for any keyword or search term phrase. Chance are, everyone else is competing for the same thing. Your best option is to create quality content for your blog or website in evergreen content form, prferrably 1,500 words or more centered around the keywords and search term phrases you're trying to rank for. This way, you're providing helpful content while improving the SEO for your site.

 Keyword difficulty essentially means how much competition there is for that particular keyword. It measures how difficult it is for you to rank for that keyword. The higher the competition, the higher the keyword difficulty, and the more difficult it is to rank for that keyword.

 The higher the keyword difficulty, the harder it is to rank
on the 1st SERP because of the ranking websites' high competition.

 Keyword Difficulty helps you determine how difficult it is to rank for a particular term in Google's organic search results. The difficulty of a keyword is dependent on a variety of different factors including domain authority, authority of the website and quality of the content.

 It is when you are not able to find accurate keywords to use in your website and therefore your website does not pop up during google search of what you have to offer. To avoid this you should just hire people to collect the keywords for you. Freelancers are available.

 Keyword complexity simply means how much competition for that specific keyword is. It tests how hard the keyword is for you to rate. The higher the competition, the higher the difficulty with the keyword and the harder it is to rank with that keyword.

So maintaining a balance between the search volume and keyword complexity is important. Ideally, with decent search volumes you 'd want to target moderate-competition or low-competition keywords.

 Keyword difficulty in SEO is largely a measure of the number and quality of backlinks to the top ten pages in the Search Engine Results Page (SERP) for that keyword.

 Keyword difficulty (also known as keyword competition) is one of the most important metrics you should consider when looking for keywords. The higher is the keyword difficulty, the harder it is to rank on the 1st SERP due to a high competition of the ranking websites.
