The SEO Mistake That Taught Me the Most

I once ignored a keyword that showed 200+ impressions in GSC — because it wasn’t part of my “main” SEO strategy.
Only later did I realize it had low competition and high intent.
I built a dedicated page for it, submitted it to indexing, and within 5 days it brought more clicks than pages I’d worked on for weeks.

Lesson learned: Never underestimate the hidden gems in your Search Console data.

I actually wrote a full guide on a related topic —
