The Importance Of Proper Keyword Research And Analysis In Achieving Great Google Seo Results

The Importance Of Proper Keyword Research And Analysis In Achieving Great Google Seo Results

Most people take keyword research for granted before beginning search engine optimization. Keyword research speaks to the task of finding out what people are searching for and how it relates to your product, service or web site. This is the most important part of any search engine optimization strategy. Without keyword research you may end up with the best search engine optimized web site, and rank number 1 for a term that only gets 10 searches a month. Picking the right, gradual keyword strategy can provide you with short term results while building your website ranking for larger volume keywords.

Google provides a free keyword research tool that allows you to search what and how many people are searching for on their website, and with Google’s increasing dominance in the search business, knowing those numbers is increasingly more important. Simply search on Google for keyword tool and you will find it. They also offer suggested keywords that may help you in sorting what will work best to describe you product, idea or service. The right keyword is the basis on which the rest of your Google SEO strategy will be based. Without proper keyword research you might as well be optimizing blind folded.

If your site is new, start small and focused. The best results will come from selecting the right keyword to best describe your product while balancing the volume of that keyword to get you quick results. The basic rule of Google SEO is that in order to achieve top ranking quickly there are some factors to take into account, like the age of your website, and its current ranking. If you have any of the previous 2 items, you can try to pick keyword that has a volume similar to the best ranked keyword result you currently have for your site. So if you are ranked in the top 10 for a keyword that gets a monthly volume of 5,000 searches, then you can begin optimizing for similar volume keywords.

Otherwise, start small, pick a great keyword that best describes your site, but don’t reach too high. Start with volume keywords below 500 monthly searches. This may not seem like a lot but in a couple of months, once you’ve achieved your goal of top 10 Google results, you can change your strategy.

This guide should give you a good starting point to help with your Google SEO efforts. Keep an eye of the next guide, which will help expand on the topic of Search Engine Optimization.

Keyword Lists – Their Proper Care and Feeding

Keyword Lists – Their Proper Care and Feeding

One of your most important marketing assets is your Keyword List. But are you giving your Keyword List the attention it deserves? Is your Keyword List getting a little shaggy around the edges? Are your keywords becoming old and out of date? Is your Keyword List not behaving at its best, possibly due to neglect?

To properly care for your Keyword List you need to understand its different needs and functions. We can divide the list into several broad categories.


Master Keyword List – this list has all the keywords that you can come up with for your particular need. All other lists are taken from this Master List.


Pay-Per-Click List – this is a subset of the Master List and will vary depending on how you are using PPC and which search engines you are buying positions in.


Tag List – this subset of the Master List helps you fill in those Meta Tag fields. Although many search engines are not currently paying much attention to Meta Tags, that could change at any time and the search engines will not let us know if or when they begin watching Meta Tags again. So the safe bet is to still keep these tags properly populated.


Web Site List – this is another subset of the Master List and is more targeted than the PPC list. This list also helps you write powerful content on your site. And don’t forget to refer to this list when setting up the Alt tags for your images (you are using Alt tags aren’t you?).


Email List – Are you using keywords in your email? You should be. Keywords are not only used to help people find your site in search engines, but they are words people are actively searching for. Your marketing should be addressing their needs, and your keyword list shows you what they are looking for. Just like creating copy on a web page, use the keyword list to target your email campaigns as well.

So how do you go about creating the Master Keyword list? You first have to decide what you need from your keywords. Most likely you will have a product or service that will dictate the broad category for the list. As an example I will use Nikon Camera as my starting point. Maybe I have a site that specializes in information about Nikons, or I have a store that sells Nikon Cameras, or maybe I sell software that would complement a Nikon Camera. These questions and more will begin to focus your keyword search.

Start by building a basic list using this approach, you don’t need to capitalize, leave everything lowercase.

nikon, nikon camera, nikon information, nikon sales, nikon software

Put down the basic keywords that spring into your head when thinking about your subject. This does not need to be an exhaustive list, just a starting point.

We now need to expand on this list by using tools freely available on the internet. My personal favorite is on Overture.com in their Resource Center. They have a valuable little tool called the Keyword Selector Tool. This tool will give you a list of keyword searches on Overture over a one month period. Simply type in your keyword and hit the button. You will get a list of keywords including the keyword you typed in and the number of searches performed on the keyword.

A search for “Nikon” came back with 100 keyword possibilities. Depending on your original keyword search you may have to clean this list up a bit before using it. For instance one of the keywords was “Nikon rifle scopes”, not what I need so I will delete that one. I usually copy the information from this web page and paste it into an Excel spreadsheet where I can manipulate it as I like. Each month you may get a different set of keywords on Overture, so don’t just do this one time and forget it. Keep on checking back to add more keywords to your list.

Another valuable tool is over on Google. (https://adwords.google.com/select/main?cmd=KeywordSandbox) You can also find this tool in the Tools section of Google Adwords. This is used like the Overture tool, simply type in your keyword and click on Get More Keywords. This search gave me 225 possible keywords, many of which I will clean out. A nice feature of the Adwords tool is that it allows you to download the list as a CSV file for use in Excel or another program.

There are many other sources for keyword lists. A good place to start is on Search Engine Watch at http://searchenginewatch.com/facts/article.php/2156041

Don’t forget specialized sites like eBay. They have a banner ad program named eBay Keywords where you can find suggestions for keywords to use with banner ads on eBay. http://ebay.admarketplace.net

And finally pay attention to the log files for your web site. You will have a list of searches people used to find your site. This is a very targeted list of keywords that were actually successful in driving traffic to your site.

Now that you have a huge list of keywords you are ready to create your Master Keyword List. Place all these keywords into a spreadsheet and clean out the inappropriate keywords (like “Nikon Binoculars”). Then arrange in order from most relevant to least relevant.

You need to weed this Master List down for your PPC campaign. You may find that the keywords near the top of your list are the most expensive and that the ones in the middle may have a better cost to sales ratio. But the more keywords you can use on PPC, the broader your exposure.

The top 25 should work well for your Meta Tag list. Depending on your needs you may need to remove duplicate words. Try to limit any individual word to 5 uses or less (example: don’t use “nikon” more than 5 times).

The top 10 keywords are your sales words for your web site and email campaigns since these are the most tightly focused keywords in the list.

Don’t forget that the needs of your list will be changing as the market place shifts. Every month or so do a new search for keywords to keep your keyword list up to date. Trim out the words that are either no longer appropriate or effective. Be sure to keep an eye on your log files. Keep your sub-lists current. And give your Keyword List the care and attention it needs to live a long and active life.

And finally, if only 4 people purchase some training off of my site due to the keywords in this article I can finally get that Nikon Camera that I have been wanting.

The Importance Of Proper Keyword Research To SEO

The Importance Of Proper Keyword Research To SEO

Seeing your site at the top of the search results for your target phrase as a beautiful thing; however, if it doesn’t drive quality, converting traffic to your site, it’s not doing you any good. The goal of any true optimization campaign is not only to get a site and it’s pages to the top of the results, but to get them to the top of the results for the phrases that matter.

In order to know the most important phrases to target it’s necessary to do some keyword research before ever beginning the promotion of your site. I can tell you from first hand experience, I’ve seen some absolutely beautiful sites, with great content and great products fail miserably because they targeted the wrong phrases.

There are LOT of different ways to research the best keywords to choose. Below I’ve outlined a few of the top that should help you get going.

1) Brainstorming

The obvious place to start. Think of all the ways you know of that your potential visitors could try and find your product or service, but don’t stop there. Once you’ve run out of terms, ask friends and family how they would try and find your product or service when searching online.

You may well be surprised at how others will search for you. Remember, in general, your potential visitors are not experts in your industry and may well use vastly different language to describe your product or service.

Make a list of all the phrases you come up with.

2) Competitors

This is always a good place to continue your research. After all, if there business has been running for a while, it is likely they have done a good bit of the research you need to do, so use their success to your advantage! Go through their site and look at the keywords and phrases they are targeting. Make notes of any phrases that can be used to describe your product or service that you haven’t yet come up with and add them to your list.

3) Keyword Research Sites

These are great. You can type in a phrase and get back phrases that incorporate that phrase, associated phrases, etc. You’ll also generally get a good bit of additional information such as predicted number of searches in a given time frame, etc. There are a number of research sites these days…some free and some paid.

I’ve listed a few below.

Wordtracker – Paid but has a free trial
Keyword Discover – Paid
Good Keywords – Free downloadable program
Google Keyword Tool – Free

Always remember that no keyword research tool is perfect. Some data will be skewed due to numerous reasons, but they are ideal for finding additional keywords and phrases you may have never thought of.

4) Old School Research

For this break out the dictionary and the thesaurus. You do have those don’t’ you? Well, luckily if not, you can use some online ones as well. :) You’d be surprised at the great ideas you can get just by using a thesaurus.

By the time you’ve gone through all 4 steps above, you should have a pretty exhaustive list of phrases that can be used to find your product or service. If you have multiple products and services, you will want to repeat the above steps for each product/service you offer.

Once you’ve got your list you want to focus your pages on the phrases you’ve generated. I try and hit about 2-3 phrases per page. In doing this you’ll keep the focus of each page tight and have the best chance of ranking for that pages target phrase.

I’ll see you at the top!

Keyword research is the first step you need to do when optimizing web pages for the right keywords.  You can take advantage of the website analysis services provided by an SEO company.  Through such website analysis service, the SEO Company will analyze your website and provide you with the list of proper keywords to use.  Such SEO Company can also give a comprehensive report for you on which keywords are the most competitive.  By getting the website analysis services of an SEO company, you will be able to acquire a scientifically generated research on keywords optimization.  You can also get professional advice on how to use these keywords to improve search engine ranking.

The next step to improve search engine ranking is to properly apply the right keyword density on any web content.  You can try the keyword-percentage approach in applying keyword density optimization.  This means for each web article you create, you need to use a single keyword for certain number of times.  For example, if your content has 400 – 500 words, then the right keyword density should be 2 -3 percent.  Applying a higher percentage than this benchmark will significantly affect the quality of your content.  Remember, search engine spiders are getting intelligent.  They can detect artificial keyword density optimization and these search engines despise improper use of keywords. 

You can also use the keyword-positioning approach in applying the right keyword density to your web content.  This approach does not rely on the number of keywords used.  It puts particular emphasis on the strategic positioning of keywords within your web content.  For example, if you have a specific keyword, then you have to place it on the first sentence of your article.  It would be best also to use the keyword again on the last sentence of the first paragraph.  Then, you have to sprinkle 3 to 4 keywords within the main content of your article.  Lastly, you should place a keyword on the last sentence of the last paragraph. 

Proper application of these keyword density approaches can significantly improve search engine ranking.  You can use a website analysis tool and run a keyword density check so you can really determine if you have done a proper job in optimizing your content.  With these techniques in mind, your website can achieve pole position on search results.  Just make sure that you can select a good keyword for your web content or web article in order to improve search engine ranking.

Keyword Reseach – the Proper Keyword Research Tools for Effective Niche Domination

Keyword Reseach – the Proper Keyword Research Tools for Effective Niche Domination

If you’ve done any kind of online market research before, then you’ve probably heard of Google’s keyword tool. Another commonly used free keyword tool is the free version of Wordtracker which gives up to 100 related keyword phrases for any keyword you enter. But there are some lesser known keyword research tools which should be used for all your market research.

Wordtracker is a great tool, but there is actually a newer free version that makes the normal free version obsolete. This new version is called the Free GTrends Tool, which is basically the old tool with the addition of a Google Trends graph. There will be a link beside each result which leads to this graph, plus the statistics for the approximate number of competing pages and amount of daily traffic. This tool makes it easy to identify profitable keyword phrases because it shows you the results while recommending less than 30000 competing pages and more than 100 unique visitors per day with the results so you know instantly whether the keyword phrase is profitable or not. Not only profitable, but easy to dominate as well.

Keyword Browse is a free keyword tool that is less commonly known. While it does not provide numbers like its counterparts, it is probably the best tool out of the group for niche identification. All that is needed is for you to enter a broad search term such as “wine”. The tool will split that niche into two strands (looks like a DNA double-helix without the rungs). One strand will be related keywords and the other one is sub-niches within your given keyword. “Wine” turns out results such as “wine making”. “Wine making” turns out results such as “home wine making” and “wine making kit” which in turn give results such as “home wine making and recipe”.

So while the Google keyword tool is an excellent and accurate tool for market research, it is essential that anybody conducting such research use the aforementioned. The time that will be saved will be invaluable to your business and the sub-niches that you find will be easy to dominate using some simple search engine optimization.
