How would you validate SEO demand for a highly specific utility?
A NEMA plug compatibility tool can solve a narrow but high-intent search problem: users often know the generator, outlet, amperage, or plug code they have, yet still struggle to identify a compatible cord or adapter. That creates a useful SEO question—should the site lead with informational guides, comparison pages, or the interactive utility itself?
For this type of product, I would cluster queries by task rather than publish many near-duplicate pages: identify a connector, compare two NEMA types, understand voltage and amperage, and choose a safe next step. Early validation could track successful searches, comparison clicks, return visits, and queries that produce no result. Clear diagrams and concise safety language may matter more than raw article volume.
Transparency: I am connected with CordFind, the project linked above. It is educational and does not replace advice from a qualified electrician. For others working on niche tools, which signal would you prioritize first: Search Console impressions, completed tool sessions, or repeat users?
