|  New Idea from a Newb
Hello, I have two questions: 1) First of all, I was woundering if anyone has any pointers on how to find what people are looking for online. I would like to see what types of things people want to find such as "how to's". 2) Also, I was thinking about starting a one sale a say website. How hard would it be to start something like this? Any help i appreciated, Thanks! |

What people are really searching for Google can't show  Now seriously, take a look at yahoo answers and check out what type of questions people are more likely to ask. Then go to the adwords suggestion tool and see if there are people searching for the topic. Tyrus  |

My Google page shows me what people are searching for and how many results in a drop down box. I just go to Google's main page and type in 'how to' but no quotes, and the drop down box gives me quite an interesting list: how to tie a tie, how to kiss, how to get pregnant.... I am not making these up! Take each one and insert into Google Adwords Keyword tool to find out how many average searches per month for any phrases that interest you... I don't pay attention to number of results, I just want a healthy amount of average searches per month. I like the number 1000 for my low cut off number on that.
