Default Which Of These 7 Keyword Tools Is Accurate Google Says 110,000 Searches A Month!

I need to find out from some seo experts which keyword tool is accurate that I can
rely on before I spend weeks trying to rank for a exact match high traffic keyword.

Would comparing google's trends & google insights for the keyword
and if they pretty much match be one way.

Here's the results from the seven keyword tools doing a exact
keyword search.

Google AdWords Tool: 110,000
Seobook: 8,307
Wordtracker: 4,710
KeywordSpy: 201,000
Keyword Discovery: 749
Spyfu 3,016
Semrush 27,100

Google is monthly, Wordtracker/Seobook is daily, and they collect their data from different sources. Strange about Wordtracker and Seobook numbers not matching, Seobook uses Wordtrackers data, I never tried crosschecking them against each other though. And BTW the numbers are an average for the previous 12 months so don't cut it to close and it might be a good idea to "guesstimate" the trends data in as well.

Google's tool and Wordtracker are the more popular of those mentioned, and a lot of tools out there are using Google's data.

SECockpit is alot more accurate than google adwords and the rest in your list.
The only issue is it's $77 a month which for some people is alot but seriously you get what you pay for, it does make the job easier and saves time.

Worst reply ever. That's like saying Lamborghini is the fastest car in the world, when it's clearly not. You need to back up your information with facts.

Depends on if you aren't considering any other cars above the Lamborghini. Oh and also whether you're getting a cut if he buys one. Hehe.

I would watch out for the monthly vs. daily numbers. And often remember NO program is going to be EXACT. That's just not possible, which means I'm getting at none of them are probably the best. They're just good estimates to go by.

precisely .. These tools measure different time spans, calculate averages, do exact match or broad match, and they all have different ways of calculating the approximate traffic for each search term.

Use them to get a general idea and not anything that is expected to be accurate.

I would bet with google but you wont know for sure who is right until you test it.

Usually I stick with keyword tools that pull their data direct from google api since google is the most important search engine right now.

How ever, sometimes the data you get directly from google is not always accurate.

I was talking from personal experience, Its something that worked for me so I just thought I could let OP know to check it out. Maybe OP might like it or not.
