There are a ton of different ways to do it (see the "further reading" at the end of this section for a detailed summary).
Our favorite method, however, is as follows…
Start off by listing out your top 5 SEO competitors.
The key here is SEO competitors - competing companies that have a strong SEO presence in the same niche.
Not sure who is a good SEO competitor? Search Google for the main keywords that describe your product and find your highest-ranking competitors.
Run them through SEM-Rush (or your favorite SEO tool) and you will see how well, exactly, they are doing with their SEO.
Once you have a list of 5 competitors, run each of them through "Organic Research" in SEM-Rush, and you will get a comprehensive list of all the keywords they rank for.
Now, go through these keywords one by one and extract all the relevant ones and add them to your sheet.
Once you go through the top SEO competitors, your keyword research should be at 80% or higher.
Now to put some finishing touches on your keyword research, run your top keywords through UberSuggest and let it do its magic. It will give you a bunch of keywords associated with the keywords you enter.
Go through all the results it will give you, extract everything that is relevant, and your keyword research should be 90% done.
At this point, you can end the day and move on to the next step. Chances are, over time, you'll discover new keywords to add to your sheet and lead you to that 100% sweet.
