Google keywords research tool - analysis

Hooray! I took a break for a couple of days and in the meantime the best keyword research tool was launched!

Finally, AdWords keyword tools give us better statistics for the keywords that we would like to rank for. Now, Google made available for everyone the exact number of search volumes for certain keywords.

You don’t have to be a genius to use Google AdWords keywoard tool, actually it’s quite simple. First, you are asked to choose between two methods of generating keyword ideas: Descriptive words or phrases or Website content. I personally prefer the second one. Here’s a screenshot of the first step:

After you did that, hit “Get keyword ideas”, wait a little and the results will show up:

As you can see, Google found the keywords that fit best for my blog, and I am shown the search volume of them. Now, I just need to get back to work and try my SEO powers.

There are pros and cons regarding this keyword research tool. Yes, it is great that we, the SEOs have some concrete numbers and we don’t have to bother anymore searching for keywords that will send us some traffic.

On Google.com I tried to rank with my automotive blog for the “concept cars reviews” structure. I thought that it may send me some traffic. I did pretty well, I am on the third place and there are about 6,000,000 results but, that structure sends me almost 0 traffic.

About the cons, imagine that everyone has access to this tool and the competition for certain keywords may grow up and it will become harder to rank for them.

    Don’t mean to blow your bubble, Alex, but right now there are no searches being made for “concept cars reviews”. What you should do is use a tool like WordTracker or SEO Book’s Keyword Tool and look for keyword structures with at least 300 daily searches. Then search for competition, and only then use the AdWords tool that you mentioned and spot the profitable keywords.

    Maybe you knew this, but I thought is worth mentioning. ;) Good luck with the auto blog.

    To be sincere, I thought that “concept cars reviews” is searched by many and many people so that’s probably why I didn’t use a keyword tool at that time.
    Thank you for telling me about wordtracker, I didn’t know about that :).
