Adwords Keyword TOol Word Order?

:confused:

Is the ordering of words in the adwords keyword tool accurate?

For example I just looked at the words in the "shorts" section, and one of the words is "pink shorts mens", which should probably be "pink mens shorts".

Some of the other terms are more ambiguous though.

Are there any more reliable tools? Or am I getting confused over nothing?

    It's not 100% accurate. That's already one of the most reliable 'free' tools around, not sure about paid ones though.

      I would not say it is inaccurate. It is just telling you how people are phrasing their searches, this is especially true if you set it parameters to exact match search.

      People search this way all the time, and I do as well.

    I search that way, too. There's a lot of potential if you can figure out how to optimize your pages for these oddly structured phrases.

    But some of them are just plain wierd. the following gets 40.5k global monthly searches.

    bermuda shorts bermuda

    What do you think is the best keyword analysis tutorial on this forum? I read a post recommending targetting keywords with atleast 10 searches a day, and under 10k indexed pages in google when you search for the keyword in quotes. for example, with the above i'd search for "bermuda shorts bermuda" and hope to find under 10k results.

    Weird search phrases are just plain weird and it just shows that Google's tool is not 100% accurate. It's accurate most of the times but you'll need to use some discretion to filter out those weird phrases. There's no way a weird phrase number will outperform an common phrase, at least in my opinion.

    Market Samurai talks about this as well in one of their tutorials where they were discussing the phrase to broad match filter (it's their own way of trying to eliminate weird searches, although again, it's not 100% reliable. Nothing beats your own judgement and experience.

    Just my 2cents

    Some people search like that.

    Some will search pink shorts mens, others pink mens shorts, others shorts mens pink, others shorts pink mens.

    Each will have their own search volume.
