How
To Find Good Keywords

Trenton Moss
Good keywords are
frequently searched for (high demand) but not being targeted by many other
websites (low competition). There are a number of tools out there that can
help you find them.
Wordtracker
The best tool out there,
Wordtracker is one of the most essential SEO tools. To use Wordtracker:
-
Go to the Wordtracker
website (http://www.wordtracker.com)and pay $7 for 24 hours’ access
-
Enter a keyword phrase
you're thinking about targeting
-
Wordtracker will suggest
hundreds of related phrases - click on the ones you like
-
Once you've clicked on
all the phrases you like, run them through the program
-
Wordtracker will compile
a score for each phrase, based on the number of users searching for it
and the number of websites targeting it
-
The higher the score, the
better the keyword phrase!
-
Wordtracker also offers a
free service which works in the same way but only uses results generated
from MSN.
Overture
Also useful, Overture's
search term suggestion tool
(http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/), is free and
much quicker to use than Wordtracker. It works in much the same way as
Wordtracker but doesn't tell you how many websites are targeting each
keyword phrase.
Google
Google AdWords Keyword
Suggestions (https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordSandbox) tell you
which keyword phrases are being targeted by other websites.
Guidebeam
Guidebeam
(http://www.guidebeam.com) is an interesting resource. Type in a phrase
and it will suggest a large number of related searches. The numbers
provided for each phrase are Guidebeam's estimation of how relevant that
phrase is.
