Keyword Research

Recipe Keyword
Research Process

A repeatable framework for discovering high-intent recipe keywords that rank and convert. Built for food bloggers who want traffic that actually cooks.

1

Seed Generation

Start with broad recipe categories your audience searches for. Expand into ingredient, occasion, diet, and method modifiers to build a raw seed list of 200+ terms.

2

Volume & Intent

Filter seeds through monthly search volume thresholds. Classify each term as informational, commercial, or transactional so you match content format to intent.

3

SERP Analysis

Examine the top 10 results for each candidate. Identify content gaps, weak featured snippets, and opportunities where a better recipe can win the click.

4

Difficulty Scoring

Weight domain authority of ranking sites, backlink profiles, and on-page optimisation signals. Prioritise low-difficulty terms with high volume for quick wins.

The Output

A prioritised content calendar of recipe keywords mapped to difficulty, volume, and intent. Each entry includes a target title tag, recommended content angle, and estimated time-to-rank based on your domain's current authority.
