What is Keyword cannibalization?

[digitalmarketin]

Keyword cannibalization occurs when you have too many identical or similar keywords spread throughout the content on your website. As a result, a search engine like Google can't discern which content to rank higher. This means that sometimes it will give a higher ranking to the web page you don't mean to prioritize.

It looks like SEOor website owner had no idea why he or she created these pages. But if you're ranking for two pages for the same keyword, you should be happy. Because many people want to be ranking in top-10 for one page at least.

A site with two or more pages targeting the same keyword that appears for an identical search is referred to as keyword cannibalization. And as a result, it becomes difficult to rank.

I'm not an expert, but my BF is. He told me that it's when you use the same semantic core for two or more articles on your site and they are starting to compete with each other.
