🕊️ SpiritualityA focused live community: Spirituality for people who want results, not another feed
Interest in spirituality communities is notable, with the top search term "meditation course" attracting 300 monthly searches in the US and 1,600 worldwide. However, the year-on-year change in searches shows a decline of 28.4%. In this category, 11 out of 21 communities publish a monthly price, with a median of $25, indicating that anyone who states a price plainly is already unusual. Your format of live sessions and video, combined with a focus on your warm audience, positions you well in this landscape, where pricing is mostly unpublished and many options are free or under $25 a month.

600 searches a month across these terms. Ranking difficulty 24/100, unusually soft for a topic this size. Search volume measures interest in the subject, not willingness to pay for a community about it. Treat it as the size of the room, not the size of the business.
The gap: Pricing here is mostly unpublished: 11 of 21 Spirituality communities show a monthly price, and 5 of those 11 are free or under $25 a month. Anyone who states a price plainly is already unusual.
