Let’s be frank—there is a saturation of content marketing. Almost every brand is producing content, and competition to rank is fierce. However, it’s not all bad news because a lot of content out there is surface level—it’s generic and has no new angle or point of view. To stand out, brands are focusing on 10x content, which is content that’s 10 times better than the content ranking highest for a keyword.

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.
