Please Help to Find the Right Keyword

[dylan09]

Hi,
I am a noob here and want to have a try about amazon niche site.
My question is how to find the right keyword after i choose the product from amazon. Please help!
1. I pay much attention to new product, however, it is very hard to find any keyword from ggkw which have enugh search.
2. How i find niche is that i find hot product from bestsellers, and then i try to find the right keyword as my EMD. I also choose the niche from lots of keywords with enough search and low competition.

Any suggestion to me?

If product is new, ggkw (as well as any other kw tool, for that matter) my not have enough data yet to judge about the search volume. If it's at least several month old, then I'd start from exact product name and if that has enough traffic, drill down to find less competitive decent-traffic keywords. If the product name itself doens't have enough search volume - forget it, and find another product.

choose your product from how marketable it is, how well it sells, and how much search volume and competition. Use the full product name if you are doing a one product site or the type of product if multiple products, as long as it meets the search and competition numbers you want.

Thx for your replay，may be i should take more time to find the keyword quickly，i just wonder how to find a good keyword with less time.

I would suggest you to simplify things and keep it simple to begin with. What confuses most of us is what to promote. My initial thought was to promote a common item that most everyone owns in a price range of $100-$500. The dissapointment was overwhelming when I was not able to drive any traffic without paying for it, and that little paid traffic I did get did not convert. Little did i know that I was competing in a market that was dominated by big dogs, with much more experience than I will ever have.
I ran across one of many videos that was offering some product, and although I did not purchase the product I did take away some good ideas regarding market selection. Since then I have concentrated on finding products/services in underleveraged markets with manageable competition.
I first search for a product, not a keyword. The search for keywords comes later, and is a part of the process. Once I find a potential product, only then will I research to see if I can compete with the keywords necessary to drive traffic via a first page Google rank.
To locate a product I may use search terms such as " does work", or "how does work" to see what people are searching for, and needing a solution to a problem. This will give me ideas to start with, and then I can look to my affiliate networks to see if they have corresponding products to fill this potential need. I will also check to see if a potential product has an independent affiliate offering that may not be offered through my affiliate networks. Then I will search for those products to see what the competition looks like. I look closely at the competition on page one also.
After this I will use Samurai to do some indepth research for hundreds of potential keywords, the search volume, and the competition. I do not rely on just the keywords that any tool will suggest. I may sit on the porch with a notebook and a cold drink and think of all the keywords a potential customer may use to locate a particular solution. I paid good money for my keyword search tools, but they sometimes miss some winning keywords. Keep them relevant, these need to be terms people are actually using to search with to find the solution you offer.
Remember, competition should be manageable. YOU get to pick what you promote. You will spend many hours building a site, and promoting it. It's worth it to spend a couple days researching your product/service selection before moving forward, only to discover your competition is overwhelming, and much worse, that you do not have the conviction and resolve to work hours on end promoting your site.....which is a whole 'nother deal in itself.
This is actually the short version of what I do, but I hope it gives you some insight as to where you might start. Good luck!
