      Hi,

      I've began doing some keyword research, the terms I am after are yielding "11-50" Volume in Keyword Explorer.

      Should I bother optimizing for such a low volume?

      Looking for existing member / community feedback.

      Thank you.

            It depends. How relevant are these terms to your service?

            For example, if you were a house cleaning service, and the 11-50 volume was "hire a house cleaning service" these searchers, while small, would be very important.

            Usually lower volume keywords will be less competitive as well, so it can be an easy win for you.

            It all depends on how much time you have to create content + what your goals are for ranking these terms.

                I just inherited a new site with a similar issue...we're currently tracking more than 200 keywords. As I did some analysis on the search volume for each keyword, I found that about 50% have super low search volumes (>10 monthly searches). Should I stop tracking/optimizing those low search volume keywords? It seems like from what you guys are saying, it's not bad to keep it. Just wanted to confirm. thank you.
