Keyword Difficulty
First of all, filter the downloaded keywords based on keyword difficulty of count less than 50. Keyword Difficulty above 50 is a little bit harder to rank. There Keyword Difficulty is calculated based on several factors such as competitors ranking, paid traffic, monthly search, etc.
Monthly Search Volume
After performing the Keyword Difficulty process, filter the remaining keywords list with a monthly search volume of at least 1000. If you filter lower than 1000 volumes, then the chance of getting traffic becomes very low.
Google Trends

CPC and PPC

Check the top 10 results for your keyword by comparing the Referring Domains, Domain Authority, Page Authority, and quality score of competitor websites.
