Long tail keyword research

[senscore]

Maybe you can give me some advice - how to research keywords.
What tool should I use to find best long tail keywords.

A tool that shows how often my keyword has been searched in Google, Yahoo, MSN and others.

I've created a niche homepage, but it seems that I need to work on keyowrds more.

Thanks!

try Traffic Travis it's free and it's doing a very good job or Web Ceo

The problem is that different programs/web sites show different results

Adsense keyword tool shows that my long tail keyword is searched monthly for 22,200 times. But Web CEO shows that <10 times daily

Hi,

Best tools to look around is Google Adword tool which is free, keep punching keywords you will have good list of long tails, Accuracy of data will be max,

Also try Wordtracker free Keyword tool

if you have some money to drop, go for Wrodtracker paid service

I believe keyword tracker has a good long-tail tool but its costly.

[srip]

Wordtracker is best option for long tail keywords.

[Peter "Paul" Williams]

My favorite is Wordtracker, but it is expensive. My second choice is Nichebot.
Nichebot is easier to use in my opinion but Word tracker returns the best results for me.

I have found that most keyword trackers are inconsistent.

That being said I suggest you play around with some of the free tools to see
what works for you.

Try the free version of Wordtracker Free Keyword Suggestion Tool From Wordtracker

the free version of Traffic Travis Free SEO Software | Traffic Travis by Affilorama

and of course the free Google Keyword Tool https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

Keyword research can often be hit and miss and this makes it very frustrating.
Test and see what works for you.

Strauss,

Did not understand your point, can you elaborate?

[athena08]

It is impossible for any keyword tool to track EVERY keyword, long-tail or otherwise, that is searched for. Basically these tools give estimates of search numbers which explains why each tool would return a different result. In my opinion, since Google receives approximately 70% of all searches done online, I would use their keyword search tool more over others.

oh k, this problem can be over come by punching in keywords we already have generated.

Many of the posts I read here have common comments about getting lots of clicks but very little to no sales.

My experience is that the PPC traffic being paid for is not the right kind. Obvious right? In a nutshell, I have found that there are basically two kinds of searches in Google & other SE's.

The first are what I call "early in the search cycle" search terms. These are people looking for education on something. They are click happy but are "not ready" to buy.

Now the secret I found is to find "end of the search cycle" search terms. These are people who have satisfied their education needs and are "ready to buy".

Most marketers pay for and target the first category and then wonder why they get so few sales. I always hear things like "I had 300 clicks to my landing page and no sales! What am I doing wrong?"

A major key to successful PPC campaign is two target the "keywords that sell", those people who are ready to buy stuff.

Here's a small sample to get you thinking in the right direction.

Informational search terms (lots of clicks, minimal sales):

fat loss tips
fat burning foods
how to lose fat
fat loss guides

Buyer ready search terms (targeted buyers, more sales):

buy fat loss program
fat loss cook book
fat loss video
purchase fat loss book
best fat loss program
buy truth about fat loss

Hope this helps!
Best regards,

I burnt a rather large hole in my bank balance with an Adwords campaign, $2000 spent, $120 sales. So thanks for the long tail keyword ideas, nistan.
