The better you understand your searcher's intent behind each keyword, the better you can meet their intent with your content strategy.
In Semrush, you can immediately see the intent of any keyword with the dedicated column in each keyword-based report. We categorize intent into four main types:
engines looking for an answer to a specific question or general information
Navigational Keywords: Search engines that aim to find a specific site or page
Commercial keywords - search engines looking to research brands or services
Transactional keywords: Searchers who intend to philippine number list complete an action or purchase
When you enter a keyword into the Keyword Summary, you can see which category it falls into at the top of the report.
For informational searches, your goal should be to educate.

For commercial searches, your goal should be to help people make an informed purchasing decision.
For transactional searches, your goal should be to offer a seamless way to complete a transaction (purchase, download, sign up, etc.).
