Technically speaking, if you have done on-page SEO, off-page SEO, and technical SEO, have targeted keywords with moderate search volume, have published quality content, your website might appear on the top of the SERP. In theory, this is very possible. However, in practical point of view, it might not be possible to compete with well known sites. Can your forum rank higher than Reddit or Quora? Can your business and finance blog outperform Forbes and Investopedia?

Ranking higher than Quora or Reddit is definitely a challenge, but it’s not impossible. With high-quality content and strong backlinks, you can improve your chances of climbing to the top.


For new webmasters, targeting long-tail keywords is a smarter approach. Long-tail keywords are easier to rank for initially and can eventually help improve rankings for more competitive short-tail keywords over time.


That said, the competitiveness of a keyword plays a huge role. By doing thorough research, you can identify less competitive short-tail keywords, which might be easier to rank for compared to highly saturated ones.

It is not a easy task to rank high on the search engines. There is nothing wrong with good SEO and writing quality articles. But challenging these big brands is very hard. In this case, it is wiser to specialize on some particular field and attempt to excel in it.
