Forget 'tutor near me'. Parents and students search for exact solutions. Use this 3-tier keyword framework to dominate local intent:
Tier 1 (Broad): 'Online math tutor' → 50K searches/mo, 85 difficulty
Tier 2 (Subject-Specific): 'AP Statistics tutor NYC' → 8K searches/mo, 65 difficulty
Tier 3 (Hyper-Specific): 'Harvard grad SAT tutor for dyslexic students in Tribeca' → 200 searches/mo, 30 difficulty
Parents search differently than students. Target 'best [subject] tutor for [child's grade] in Downtown' (e.g., 'best chemistry tutor for 10th grader in Palo Alto'). These keywords convert 3x higher because parents control the budget.
