SEO Contest 2025 – Anyone Using GSA SER to Compete for "Keywordkönig"?
Hey everyone,
I came across the current SEO Contest 2025, where participants compete to rank on Google for a completely made-up term: Keywordkönig (basically "keyword king" in German).
Since the keyword has no prior history, no search volume, and no domain authority tied to it, it’s actually a great environment to test strategies without legacy interference — and that got me wondering:
Has anyone here used GSA SER in a contest like this?
I’m especially curious about:
-
Which platforms/engines are working well for German-language content these days
-
Whether tiered link building still holds up in 2025
-
If contests like this are actually useful for client visibility or more for testing and fun
One example I found impressive is this entry from the agency Semtrix: https://www.semtrix.de/keywordkoenig/
It’s very creative, almost gamified, with solid on-page work behind the scenes.
Would love to hear your thoughts or experiences with SEO contests — or how you'd approach one using GSA tools.
