Keyword Research - Why it is important for your online business?

Getting Keyword Ideas:

First assume some keyword related to your niche. If you don’t have idea about niche and how  to find a profitable niche you can read my next post. There are so many keyword research tool available today. Some are free and some you have to buy. I like to use free service as it does everything for me. To get keyword ideas you can start with any of following free keyword research tool:

Google External Keyword Tool

It is the best and free keyword research tool.  For your keyword research

1. Type your niche in the box and then click Get Keyword Ideas

2. Once you enter you will get many keyword related to your niche.

You may be thinking which one to choose. To select good keyword always:

1. Select keyword that have 1000-1500 search volume
2. Select a keyword that has less than 20000 competing page.

First one you will get from the Google External Keyword Tool. See the global search volume.

To get data about competitive page go to Google and search as:

“your keyword phrase� -> Use “�

Now see how many result page Google is showing. This number indicate that those number of  pages are having the same keyword. So you have to compete with them.

Wordtracker - Free Keyword Suggestion Tool

I often use Wordtracker. Wordtracker shows the number of search in daily basis. Just put your keyword in keyword text box and press Hit Me. It will show keyword list and number of  search. It is better to choose a keyword that has 29 - 50 daily search volume.

You will get enough keyword ideas using above two. But still you can go for  further research.
