Keyword Research:

I know preciously I have already touch base on this topic, Hence I want to cover a bit more ground, because this is the essence to drive traffic to your webpage, think about it, traffic is the life blood of any success webpage.

One tool which I am going through is Google keyword tool (Google Adwords). Why used Google Adwords? Well it’s simple… IT’S FREE. Now if you don’t have an account yet, please create an account at: www.google.com/adwords

When performing the keywords research, you need to identify the long tail keywords (keyword which are three words or more) e.g.: “Make Money” this keyword for example will be much too great and competitive and generic, Now if you try something like “make money from home” This will be specific and that’s what we want to focus on. The idea behind this is if we are going for a generic keyword e.g.: 1 or 2 words it’s too generics and too competition, chance is your site will never be seen. Now with long tail keyword, this will narrow down to e.g.: sub niche which is less competition meaning your site will have a much better chance to rank highly in Search Engines like Google.

The good thing about Google Keyword tools allow you to see is the monthly performance search on local and global, average CPC, advertiser Competition and a few other information. What we are looking here is to select for any keyword that return 500 – 1000 result per month; hence anything more then it’s no good as it’s too competitive.
