Posted by IzabelleHundrev If there’s one thing that most marketers have in common, it’s that we want more leads. Sure, not all leads are good. Some are even downright unqualified. But leads are what drive business, and as a result, many of us are held accountable for generating more of them.

But that is time consuming. Another approach is you go to Ubersuggest , type in your competitor’s domain, and see all the keywords they rank for. But even with this approach, you have to filter through thousands of keywords to find the good ones.
