    Rank first for what keywords?
    Presumably, the actual radio station will be first for their names but you could get page #1

    I don't know how things are in Morrocco but down here in NZ for the top 40 and easy listening type of stations this is what I'd expect to find if I googled the radio station name
    • official website
    • official facebook
    • official instragram
    • official twitter
    • official youtube
    • linked in
    • morning show facebook
    • morning show twitter
    • lunch show facebook
    • lunch show twitter
    • drive time facebook
    • drive time twitter
    and that's before you even get to the news stories talking about the radio stations.

    Because I get local, personalised results this search works for me: https://www.google.com/search?q=zm

    and here are the results:
    • ZM Online – Not just radio. THE source of celebrity gossip ...
    1. Listen to ZM
    2. Music
    3. Listen
    4. Frequencies
    5. Win
    6. Fletch, Vaughan & Megan
    • ZM - Facebook
    • ZM (New Zealand) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    • ZM - YouTube
    • ZM host celebrates boyfriend's big news - Spy (link to an article in the national newspaper)
    • ZM | Case Studies | Ultimate Media <-- 404, missing page
    Page 2:
    • ZM 4th Grade - Protopage <-- wtf?
    • ZM Black ThundersWLG (@ZMthundersWLG) | Twitter
    • ZM's got balls! » Lock N Load Paintball <-- this one is a surprise
    • ZM Online - Hit Music on the App Store
    • ZM Presents Jupiter Project in association with Loco - Winterfestival ...
    • Listen to ZM Radio Live | Stream Online Free | iHeartRadio
    • ZM's Jay and Flynny Go Their Separate Ways | Scoop News
    • ZM's Ladies of NZ - Weekend Package
    • ZM Meeanee Speedway, Meeanee, Hawkes Bay - AA Maps ...
    • ZM Onesie Party - Lower Hutt - Eventfinda

    If you are trying to rank for the names of the radio stations, and if they are as active online as these guys, then you are going to have to work really hard to beat them at their own game.

    I did a search but not being local I couldn't really assess the results for "beatability"

    For each result on the first 2 pages what is:
    1. age of the website
    2. size of the website
    3. relevance of the website
    4. relevance of the page

    If they're well established, old websites then you'll have heard of them. The size is usually apparent just from their menus.
    but those are old sites and that alone makes them hard targets to beat.

    I would recommend looking for other search phrases that people might use often enough when searching for information about radio stations and target them.
