Keyword Search

This week has been quite amazing for me. I have decided to do all my focusing on article writing and the first of this is to be for keyword search.

When you decide to do article marketing. This means that you need to write an article about 500 words and submit it to the article directories. When you do that it is important to use the right keyword and this means doing the right keyword search.

If you use something like article content or article writing you are competing with others in the millions that already have pages out there. So you need to do some good keyword search and find words that are not being competed with so much.

Most people that are new to the internet business world do not understand the full concept behind keyword search and the importance of the right keywords. We shall be discussing keyword search for the long tail keyword or the keyword phrase. Long tail keywords usually use 2 or more words.

So where do you do keyword search and what keywords should you use? I use Traffictravis, wordtracker, buzzkeyword and Google keyword search tool. I use the free keyword search tools because that is what I need to do right now. If you can afford to purchase a keyword search tool then that would make it easier.

Now for keyword search you have to start off with a niche. For your first one it is better to find something that you know and or enjoy. I am going to do keyword search for Harley Davidson. It is widely known and appreciated. It is a very competitive niche, but then some competition is not always a bad thing.

Now go to your keyword search tool and type in Harley Davidson and look at the results that come up. There are over 4 million daily searches for this keyword. But look down the list and find keywords that have around 1000 searches per month.

I then take the keywords and go to Google search. I type in the keywords and look at the competing page number. Make sure to put quotes around your keywords to give you exact word usage and the number of times that the keyword actually is used. You want to find competition that is below 10,000 competing pages.

If you keep in mind those two defining rules; competing pages below 10,000 and searches over 1000, and you find keywords within those definitions, then you have found an excellent word.

This table shows you that if you can use any of these keywords in your article you have the chance of getting the amount of traffic to them that is shown. How amazing is that?

Just looking at the last one, Screaming eagle Harley Davidson, you can see that there are 5400 people a month searching for that particular term. If you used that keyword and came to your page and you only sold a $50.00 product to 5% of them that would be a total of $13,500.
