Generating Successful Long Tail Keyword Research

Posted by amm on Thursday, 29 April, 2010

Keyword research is the vital component to any Internet enterprise, whether you are an affiliate marketer or you own a business selling merchandise over the Internet. The keywords that you use on your website or blog determine how easily people will be able to find your site through the search engines. This happens to be the point of knowing how crucial performing long tail keyword research is. Keywords that are commonly used and are already being targeted by a high number of websites will not be as effective for you. Those with high search volume and low competition are the valuable keywords and phrases you need to target. The results are two-fold: you will receive almost immediate high rankings and you will have a continuing hold on those positions. Below are a few vital steps you will need for discovering the correct long tail keywords and begin your keyword research for a successful website or blog.

After you realize what your target market is and you have found a trust worthy external keyword finding tool, you can begin doing your research. Let’s take acne as an example to see how proper keyword research is done. If you are selling acne cream, you will be targeting those with acne, hence your keyword will reflect this. Simply enter acne into the tool, click the go button, and all the keywords you need are presented to you straight from the search engines.

But you are not just selling ‘acne’ you are selling ‘acne cream.’ Your keyword searches should reflect that. Being overly broad in your keyword searches will just give you more competition. Essentially, you want to discover the keywords that a customer will use when trying to find the product to meet their needs. The key phrases will help you direct traffic as taught by Traffic Ultimatum.

Once you preform the search using the research tool, compile the results into a text file. Take the list and enter them one at a time into the tool that original produced them. These new keywords are known as long tail keywords. Concise keywords are more difficult to generate rankings for than long tail keywords. A simply “acne cream” keyword would be considered short. But having something like “cost effective ways to treat acne” would be a long tailed keyword. A simple keyword like ‘treating acne’ would have quite a bit of competition along with it. Through using a good research tool for keywords, you can find many long tail keyword that the Google tool would not be able to provide. This is just one process of getting huge amounts of traffic as taught by Traffic Ultimatum.

Bottom line – your top priority in any search engine based campaign must be to start with keyword research. There are many people who ignore this crucial step and end up losing a lot of time and hard work on short tail keywords.

Keyword Research Services – Travis Sago’s Instacash Tested & Reviewed

Posted by amm on Wednesday, 31 March, 2010

Are you like me and struggle with keyword research? Actually I can find loads of keywords. My problem is finding good keywords.

I thought the data from Google’s keyword tool was always bang on. I mean, they wouldn’t be telling fibs about their data, would they? Turns out they do and they don’t.

Any data you get isn’t accurate. It would have been correct at some point though. The answer to this particular enigma came to me almost accidentally.

I went for a key phrase with around 5,000 pages competing against it. I was pretty sure I could get a good result with that keyword. I put out probably thousands of articles.

It didn’t take long to notice there were now over 9000 competing sites. I could hardly believe that. Had there been some mistake? As it happens most of these extra results were my articles on these different sites.

The point I’m trying to get across is that had I looked at the keyword with 9000 competitors, I would have left it alone. As a lot of them were mine (or had my article on) I was competing against my self most of the time. Not a bad situation to be in if you ask me.

I got lucky on that keyword but I suspected I may not get lucky again so I made the decision to try out a keyword research service. Hopefully I could get some golden keywords delivered to my inbox every day. I calculated the cost of these services and concluded that they were value for money.

Of the keyword research services on offer I opted to try Travis Sago’s Instacash. Travis being at the top of the bum marketing pile. Bum marketing is something I really like.

One or two good quality keywords delivered each day could save me hours of time. Two hours or so to me is quite valuable. Put that couples hours saved against the daily cost and it adds up to value.

All the big marketers bang on about outsourcing. I see this as an outsourcing project. I’m simply outsourcing the job to a keyword research service.

You can find out just how the trial went over at my site. I mentioned earlier about getting thousands of articles published for a good keyword. I’ll let you know how I did that on my site

Keyword Research Services – Read My In Depth Test Of One

Posted by amm on Monday, 22 March, 2010

Are you like me and struggle with keyword research? Finding keywords isn’t actually the problem. My problem is finding good keywords.

I thought the data from Google’s keyword tool was always bang on. I had no reason to doubt the leading player’s figures. Sadly, that’s not always how it goes.

What you see (the data) is not what you get. It would have been correct at some point though. I discovered the answer almost by pure chance.

I homed in on a key phrase with roughly 5000 competing websites. I was pretty sure I could get a good result with that keyword. So I set out putting articles out. Lots of articles.

Not long after I saw that there were now almost nine thousand competing sites. I was shocked at this huge difference. Looked like it was going to be hard work. I was relieved to see that an awful lot of these competitors were showing my articles.

My point being is that I’d have swerved this keyword if I had seen nine thousand competitors. As a lot of them were mine (or had my article on) I was competing against my self most of the time. A win win situation if you ask me.

Anyway, I decided to give a keyword research service a try as I couldn’t count on getting lucky every time. Getting a daily list of quality keywords sent is something that appeals to me. I calculated the cost against the time it would take me and it seemed a value for money concept.

I decided to give Travis Sago’s Instacash service a try. Travis being at the top of the bum marketing pile. Bum marketing is something I really like.

It takes me an hour or two to come up with a couple of decent keywords. Getting them delivered is a huge help. When all I have is time then two hours saved can be huge to me. Put that couples hours saved against the daily cost and it adds up to value.

I get a lot of emails from gurus banging on about outsourcing. I see this as an outsourcing project. Outsourcing my keyword research to someone else.

Do you wanna know how it went with the Instacash service? Get on over to my website and I’ll tell you. I mentioned earlier about getting thousands of articles published for a good keyword. I’ll show you how I did that at my site.
