Understanding Search Intent
Want to know why someone searches for something? That’s where Search Intent comes in.
Semrush breaks it down into 4 simple types:
- Navigational – They’re looking for a specific site (think: “YouTube” or “Amazon”)
- Informational – They want to learn something
- Commercial – They’re comparing options or researching a brand
- Transactional – They’re ready to buy
Most top Google searches?
They’re navigational or informational. That’s why keywords like YouTube and NFL get millions of searches every month. But here’s the problem:
Ranking for those terms is nearly impossible.
They’re ultra-competitive. Dominated by giants. And that’s where Keyword Difficulty (KD) comes in.
Semrush gives each keyword a KD score from 0 to 100. The higher the number, the harder it is to crack the top 10.
Here’s how it breaks down:
- 0–14: Very Easy – Even brand new pages can rank
- 15–29: Easy – Some effort required, but very doable
- 30–49: Possible – You’ll need high-quality, optimized content
- 50–69: Difficult – Bring backlinks and authority
- 70–84: Hard – Competitive niches, serious SEO needed
- 85–100: Very Hard – Top-tier sites only (think Amazon-level)
Conclusion
That’s it for our look at the top Google searches, both in the US and worldwide!
