I've double check them in Gkewords an MS
My doubts are that it doesn't reach 30,000 SEOC and I was wondering if less than that wold be good or if 30 is the sweet spot. I also found a similar keyword but it starts (makeyourown) would that be a viable key too.

Thanks

Welcome Carribeanpwr

The idea of SEOC is the lower the better - in the Challenge the SEOC top limit is 30,000 so the keyword numbers you posted are suitable

What you show of your matrix also seems OK on the surface but there is a lot more to analysing a niche than the basic data. It would be good to see if you have 3 or 4 category keywords that also meet the 80/15/30000 traffic rules (note - category keywords don't have to have a green line in their matrix - just the main niche theme keyword) Giving us a best attempt analysis of your own (including monetization data) is the best way to learn the Challenge process ( See section 13 of the Forum Rules for instructions http://challenge.co/forum/showthread...ge-Forum-Rules )
