Short-Tail Keywords: Short-tail keywords are brief and general search queries, typically consisting of one or two words. These keywords usually have high search volumes and competition. For example, "digital marketing" or "best headphones" are short-tail keywords. They are broader in scope and can be more challenging to rank for due to their popularity. Long-Tail Keywords: Long-tail keywords are longer and more specific phrases that visitors are more likely to use when they're closer to a point-of-purchase or when using voice search.
