How the Semrush integration works
Keywords (also called search phrases) are words that a user enters into a search engine to find the content they want. The search engine matches the user with content that it thinks is relevant to their keywords. Using keywords effectively on your site's pages can help improve your site's ranking in search results.

Wix's Semrush integration analyzes a keyword's popularity and creates a report. You can use this report to help identify the best keywords for you to target for your site's search engine optimization (SEO).
When you enter a keyword and choose a region, Semrush compares it against its database. The integration creates a report with a table of options related to your keyword. The table also includes information about these options such as their popularity, the trend of their popularity, and the difficulty to rank for them.
When you've found the keywords you want to use in your SEO Checklist, you can select them and add them.
Read more information about each aspect of the report below.
Keyword options
This is a list of search terms that are related to the keyword you searched for. The number of options you see depends on the popularity of your keyword. Keyword options are listed based on search volume from highest to lowest.
Search volume
This is the average number of times that users search for a certain keyword per month. You can use this number to get an idea of the potential traffic that you can bring to your site if it ranks for this keyword. However, keywords that have high volume are also likely to be more competitive to rank for.
Trend
The Trend column shows you a graphical representation of the change in volume for a certain keyword over a 12 month period. You can use this graphic to see if the keyword is increasing or decreasing in popularity.
Difficulty to rank
This column gives you an indication of how competitive a keyword is and how difficult it is to rank for. The difficulty to rank for a keyword depends a range of factors including the competitors for it, the quality of content they create, the backlinks each competing page has, and the intent of the user.
There are three levels of difficulty in Semrush: Easy, Medium, and Hard. These levels give an idea of the effort required to rank on the first page of search results for a keyword.
Searcher intent
Intent gives you an indication of the reason why users search for a certain keyword. Semrush divides intent into four categories:
- Informational: Looking for answers to a specific question. For example, "How to improve my site's SEO".
- Navigational: Trying to find a specific page, site, or physical location.
- Commercial: Looking for information about specific brands or services, usually with an intent to purchase something in the future.
- Transactional: The user wants to complete an action such as purchase something. For example, "buy new camera".
You can use intent to help decide how you need to write the content of your page.
