I. Zero search volume does not mean zero demand: The starting point of disruptive thinking. The keyword tool showing "0" only indicates a lack of historical searches, not that there will be no demand in the future.
- Buyers' pain points have not yet been articulated in language; those who are the first to name them can monopolize the market.
- New scenarios, new regulations, and new technologies create new demands; whoever creates content first will reap the benefits.
- Zero-search-term competition is extremely low, and the ranking cycle is shortened by 70%.
- Educate the market with new terms, and incidentally embed the brand into the minds of users.
II. Pain Point Discovery: From customer service records to community discussions, high-frequency customer service complaints, niche Reddit communities, and LinkedIn group discussions are all rich sources of new terms.
- Export customer service tickets to CSV and use text clustering to identify high-frequency pain points that do not have corresponding search terms;
- Search "how to + product" on Reddit, filter for posts with fewer than 10 upvotes, and record colloquial expressions;
- Verify the trend over the past five years using Google Trends; if the curve is blank and the pain point is real, then it hits the mark.
- The research findings were written into a briefing and submitted to the Industry Insights column of the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, winning the first batch of authoritative backlinks.

3. Word creation strategy: Memorable, searchable, and spreadable good words = pain point + scenario + brand elements, such as "48-hour FDA label compliance website building method".
- The length should be ≤12 characters to facilitate oral communication;
- Addressing core pain points and reducing education costs;
- Add numbers or times to create a sense of scarcity;
- Ensure that .com/.cn domain names are available for registration to prevent future brand loss.
IV. Content Production: Use video + text/image dual placement for new keywords, and cover multiple formats to allow Google to quickly establish entity associations.
- First, shoot a 3-minute YouTube video with a title containing a new term and a link to the official website in the description;
- Write another 1500-word blog post with a structured answer, and submit it to IndexNow to speed up indexing;
- Posting long articles on LinkedIn, embedding video and blog links, creates a social signal;
- Package the content into a PDF and upload it to the Shenzhen Cross-border E-commerce Association's database to obtain authoritative local backlinks.
V. SEO Verification: After four weeks of achieving a closed loop from "zero" to an average of 230 clicks per day, check GSC. If new keywords appear and are displayed, the process is successful, and you can continue to scale up.
- If impressions are >100 and CTR is >8%, it means the demand has been validated, so expand the subtopic immediately;
- If the number of impressions is less than 20, fine-tune the title, add intent words such as "price" and "case studies," and then test again.
- Use FAQPage Schema to tag questions and answers related to new terms and reserve PAA slots;
- Write the verification process into a case study and submit it to the China E-Commerce Association to continuously build brand authority.
VI. Traffic Reuse: Direct new keyword visitors to the mature funnel. New keyword traffic is information-oriented and needs to be converted into leads through "content upgrades".
- A "New Words List" PDF is attached at the bottom of the blog; you can exchange it for an email address.
- On the third day of the email series, a mature product was introduced, explaining how services can solve pain points.
- Remarketing ads that follow up with users who have watched more than 50% of the videos resulted in a 2.1x increase in ROI.
- Write the entire process into internal SOPs to ensure the team can continuously replicate it.
VII. Risks and Iteration: Preventing New Keywords from Being Diluted by Competitors. Once a new keyword is validated, competitors will follow suit, requiring defense with brand and technological barriers.
- Register relevant .com/.cn domain names to prevent competitors from snatching them up;
- Incorporate new terms into product white papers, apply for trademarks, and establish legal barriers;
- Update content annually to keep timestamps fresh and solidify rankings;
- By incorporating defensive strategies into the case library of the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, they have continuously gained backlinks and citations.
