Blog post SEO - how to choose keywords

[Growyourself]

I use SEMRush and I need a bit of guidance on how to find the best keywords for blog posts with the metrics search volume, keyword difficulty, CPC, competitive density and number of results.

Obviously the higher the search volume the better, however for new websites these are normally too competitive, so I am aware if you get a lower keyword difficulty, this makes it easier.

But I need more guidance on how you use the above metrics to get the results. Can anyone please help?

If by lack you find pages with low domain authority ranking for that keyword and appearing on the first page of google search, then that is your keywor

I'll vouch for this one. Higher volume search sometimes lead to higher competition too.
