The hardest keywords to rank on page 1 on google?

What about the word "proxy"
thousands of proxy websites are there but none can rank higher than proxy(dot)org in that keyword
 


This is not true at all. I hate when people say this. How many firms have a worthwhile ranking for "seo company"? 7? Using SEO to get SEO clients is a retarded way to build business.

You don't think potential clients use search engines to look stuff up huh? Or any good manager will do research before hiring?

Hmm. I just sparked an idea. Brb.
 
Any word designating the name of concrete service will be difficult for advancement, by a word ebay the site on tourism precisely won't promote, and also for what? By the way,with words designating popular services will be also difficult to advance, for example: on tourism, medical, cosmetic services etc. There are services in which it is possible to see competition degree on any words. I look in SEMRush.
SEMRush - service for competitors research, shows Google organic and AdWords keywords for any site or domain
