What a Brand should do first for Their Blog Keyword Research or Topic Research?

Hello Moz Community,
Need your help guys. What a Brand should do first for their Blog?
Keyword Research or Topic Research?
Like for the Brand Product page/ eCom Pages, it's quite easy >
1. Buy "Product" Online
2. Buy "Product" "Geo."
3. Product Reviews [for Guest Posting or Reviews]
4. Best "Product" Online and soBut, for the blog, it's tough for searching out the keywords that will work if the SEO team or the keyword research team is not aware or don't have the detailed knowledge about the niche they are working on.
Please verify: Is it a correct method that an editor should provide a "topic" to the SEO team to find relevant keywords by using a Keyword Research tool that there are enough searches for it which can provide benefits to the blog via the search engine.

Hello,
Have you tried the Moz Keyword Explorer tool? You can find out how often keywords are searched, how difficult it is to rank on Google for these keywords, the opportunity that your link will actually be clicked on, the human element (aka what we know that the data doesn't know), and finally, the potential, which takes all those aforementioned metrics into consideration.
One of the REALLY cool things about this tool is this: you can type in a keyword, and then a list of keywords (long tailed and short) will show up in a list. Often times, commonly searched questions will show up in this list, which can inspire blog topics.
That way, you can research keywords and topics at the same time.
Hope this helps--best of luck.

I got Thank you so much for replying.
But, the problem is that the editor is working in a wrong fashion here.
1. We find the keywords for the blog
2. Check out the searches mark which is 1000 Searches/Mo Geo-Specific.
3. Now, competition analysisand then the list of the keywords will be sent to the editor. And the editor will just create the title, and that's it.
Please tell me how to give the instructions to the editor so, that we'll get a fruitful result with better rankings or consumer trust.
Thank you

I think a good editor can come up with topics. Especially if he's familiar with the brand.
If you want, you can find topics by researching your top keywords. For example, if you sell tuna you can find search suggestions for that word and that would be your topics, e.g.:
http://i.imgur.com/6OicGX7.jpg
This tool is free and unlimited, you can always find good topic ideas there, there were >1,000 questions for the word "tuna", These questions are all gathered from google's search suggestions.
I work for Serpstat so if you'll have any questions feel free to address me.Another tool that you can use for the same purpose is Answer The Public.

Screaming Frog for competitor research
Hi guys, Does somebody experienced an issue with Screaming Frog spider while trying to crawl a website? It's weird since no error message appears and at the same time the crawler cannot crawl anything. There is no restriction in the robots.txt. Has someone encountered such an issue? Thank you. Cheers

SEO Keyword Research
Hi, We are SEO beginners so please bear with us! We are trying to promote "Web based Invoicing Software". The SEO company we have signed with offer us 5 keywords for the package we are on with them. They have suggested\offered us: 1. Invoicing Software - Fine
Competitive Research | | Studio33
2. Online Invoicing - Fine
3. Online Invoicing Software - Covered by 1 and 2
4. Small Business Invoicing Software - Covered by 1
5. Invoice Template - Fine. Will Invoice templateS be covered on this one too? My question is does number 3 cover number 1,2 & 4 anyway? If so I am thinking to not go for 1,2, & 4 just keep 3 and choose three other new keywords. Would this be a better strategy and "more for our money?" Or, keep 1 and 2 and lose 3 and 4, would that be a good option. So, in summary options are (all assuming keeping number 5) 1. Keep all
2. Keep 1 & 2 - Lose 3 & 4
3. Keep 3 - Lose 1,2 & 4 4. Any other combo you can suggest? Any advice welcomed Thanks nutnut0 -

Keyword Research Tool Problem
Hi, I had been in SEO for around 2 to 3 years, I am looking for your suggestion if there is any best keyword research tool. I tried almost most of the keyword research tool (both paid or free) but I found the following problem: -Worktracker: I think it is too difficult to use and understand as a non technical person. I always wonder the data accuracy because when the same keyword appear in Google for few thousand traffic, it only appear in Wordtracker for few dozen or hundred of search. Also I don't think they suggest any long trail keywords in my view. The long trail keyword you can also find in free keyword search tool. -Google Keywords Tool- Good, but it can only show 100 results. I cannot get a better pictures of related or niches keywords. I always find some competitive keywords can rank easily but some non competitive keywords usually very difficult to rank in some case. It will depend on how you interpret the data results. -Keyword Discovery and Wordstream-Although I really want to subscribe, but they are a way too expensive (you have to subscribe for 12 months). I check with their free keywords tool but only shown very limited results. Although there are some other like spyfu.com or keywords spy...... Is there any one can suggest me which is the best tool to start with keyword search for the long trail and niche keywords ? or is there any way or trick to find the best keywords ? Thank you. Tom
