    If competing pages is low, < 50,000, then on page seo is significant. Look at titles, internal linking including anchor text, headers, keyword density including LSI words, and of course the all important content :)

    If competing pages is high, > 50,000, then look at the quality of backlinks and the authority of the site. If you want to compete here you need similar authority and more or better quality backlinks.

    Use IBP tool for competition analysis. It works fine and gives more accurate results.

    BackLinks, keywords, Content, capabilities, strengths and limitations of competitors website should be reviewed in competitor's website analysis.

    Hi,

    thanks for your reply. Are you talking about alexa traffic rank? i.e. < 50,000 or > 50,000.
