Niche SEO That Brings Readers: Poetry, S...

Edward Sturm
About this episode

E773: I break down how to use niche SEO to actually bring an audience to your work.

You’ll hear real keyword examples (like “poetry about sadness” and “short stories in space”) that are wide open on Google right now - and how to target them so your writing or products or services gets discovered.

I’ll show you:
- How to find low-competition keywords with real search demand
- Why niche SEO is often easier than broad SEO
- The exact steps to optimize your blog posts, poems, and short stories
- Recognize when low domain authority sites ranking high = your opportunity
- Spot the difference between “open” keywords and fully optimized ones

Whether you’re a poet, fiction writer, creative blogger, or just somebody with a niche business, this will give you practical strategies to get your work seen, shared, and read.
