I just ran a SERP/keyword diffculty report for a keyword I want one of my pages to rank
Also, I just conducted the on-the-page-optimization and now I am going to start buidling links.
=> I would like to estimate how many linking root domains I need to overrank one of my competitor. These are the MOZ data:
1. My page:
Page Linking Root domains: 0
Root Domain Linking Root Domains: 151
2. Competitor:
Page linking root domains: 1
Root Domain Linking Root Domains: 5,786
I don't really know on which metric (Page or domain LRD) to rely on in order to make an estimation and I would be glad for some help!
To simplyfy the problem, assume that all toher factors (code, on-the-page keyword use., social etc.) are equal for both sites. Can I just get 2LRD to that page in order to likely outrank my competitor or do I need around 5000 more links poiting to my site?
I think an answer to this question could help a lot of users here, since I saw similar questions/difficulties regarding the use of page LRD vs. root domain LRD
P.S. Non of the pages of my website do currently rank in the top 100 for that keyword.
