Research Strategy
1
Listener Journey Mapping
Don't just map keywords; map the 'Task' or 'Goal' the podcaster is trying to achieve. If they search 'podcast guest booking', they likely need a system or service, not just tips.
2
Zero-Volume 'Passion' Keywords
Identify specific niche queries (e.g., 'building a podcast community on Discord') that tools show as 0 volume but actually drive high-intent engagement and loyalty.
3
Information Gain Analysis
The 'Hidden' factor. Audit the top 10 results for 'podcast monetization strategies' and identify what's missing (e.g., specific CPM data for niche audiences, advanced sponsorship negotiation tactics). Google rewards pages that provide unique, actionable insights.
4
Non-Tool Competitor Audit
Analyze who owns the mindshare for podcast growth topics (e.g., Pat Flynn's SPI, specific Substack newsletters, Reddit communities like r/podcasting). Use tools like SparkToro to see where your target podcasters hang out, then target those sub-niches with tailored content.
5
Topical Authority Gap Find
Use Ahrefs 'Content Gap' but for your entire domain vs. competitors like 'Buzzsprout' or 'Podbean'. Find clusters where you have no footprint (e.g., 'podcast analytics deep dive') and build a 10-article sprint to close the gap.

Pro Tips & Insights
01
Keyword volume is a legacy metric. In 2024, 'Creator Goal Clarity' is the primary signal for attracting loyal users.
02
Ignore Difficulty scores from tools. Look at the SERP: if it's full of YouTube tutorials and forums, it's 'Easy' regardless of what SEO tools say.
03
Information Gain is the new SEO. If your 'podcast marketing tips' content is just a rewrite of the top 3 results, LLMs won't prioritize it for citations.
04
Monitor 'Google Search Console' for high-impression, low-click keywords (e.g., 'how to submit podcast to Spotify'). These are your biggest 'Low Hanging Fruit' opportunities for 2024.
