      I use KW elite, but it's all up to you.

      There's also market samurai and micro niche finder. Those are great.

    whoa, micro niche finder and IM advantage want 97 dollars! That seems a little excessive for software, is it really worth what they claim it is on their sites? Im going to check out that free trial of market samurai though.

    I woudl receommend to save your money and understand the Google Keyword Tool (comes with or without adwords). Use it so much that you know everything about it A lot can already be done with this tool.
    Now once you're adept with this free tool you should begin to understand what you are looking for. WHat you would like to automate or need more detailed information on.
    Then I believe you will stand a better chance at selecting other 3rd party keyword services and judging the value in it. Not to mention you will be able to use it to full capacity of the features instead of just using what you already get free.

    Hope it helps and I was able to answer your question.

    Why don't you just use Adwords Keywords Tool?
    I don't understand why people trust other keywords tools better than Google's own!
    I know Google search engine is not the only game in town, but it certainly is the biggest. So, I'd rather take their word fro it(at least when it comes to numbers from their own search engines) than other people's.

    Really depends what you want to do with it, do you want to know the competition, are you providing a service? Will you be doing deep analysis?

    You can't beat free from Google and then using Excel to build your own metrics.

    I personally use Market Samurai and it is really good! It can save you a lot of time doing keyword research. If you don't intend to invest at this point of time, go with Google Keyword External Tool and I believe it's best to begin with, it may take a little bit longer to perform keyword research but at least you can understand the mechanics of the tool.

    Just for your information, Market Samurai obtained the data from Google but the software itself will help you to cut the hassle of doing research, analyzing competition and more importantly - save your time!

    If you are looking for a good keyword tool that you can use for free, we must turn to Google, which has its AdWords keyword research tool from Google. This is a special program that is designed to help users get the right keyword phrases and more specific and essential for any online content. Over time, this tool has proven very effective in helping online advertisers and website owners in the production of articles and content that would not be fair to draw the attention of users, they also rank high in the engines search.

      Yeah, the top internet marketers all recommend making use of as much free stuff as possible and the one they just about all recommend being adequate for the average marketer like us here on the WF is Google. I have also seen a lot of reference to Market Samurai of late - so I'll be checking it out for sure.

          I have to agree with the general consensus of this thread. Market Samurai is excellent, and you can invest in it later when you're making some money. Until then, Google Adwords Tool and Wordtracker are perfectly fine to use when just starting out, and they're free.

          I use all three.

    Google's Adwords Keyword tool is very powerful and gives you great results and information.

    A good follow up on your findings from Google Adwords is Google Insights. This will show you when people are searching, and also offers other highly searched keywords related to your niche, which is very useful.

    These are free tools.

    Better to earn with free tools, and then invest once you've made it work--unless you have money to burn?
