    Market Samurai used to be good.

    Not sure about it now...

    I always found google keyword tool OK. Market Samurai is a bit of a hammer to crack a nut just to look for keywords....

    Market Samurai is the best keyword research tool I've ever used...

    You can do keyword research, analyze the keywords to find the golden ones, check competition of the pages ranking in search engines to see if it's approachable, also there is a functionality to find out the number of backlinks each website ranking in page 1 are having.

    When you have this data, all you need to do is - build a little bit more backlinks and overtake your competition. Also there are other useful modules like the domain module, which helps you easily find out available keyword domains.

    Hope it helps...

    Google makes the best FREE keyword finding tool. It is hard for small businesses to spend tons of money on SEO tools.

    I like Keyword Blaze It is pretty streamlined and easy to use. The linked version is free. It is based on Adobe Air. I like that it tells you probable winners.

      If I'm not wrong, MS takes data from Google Adwords Keyword Tool.

    Right now I am so used to Market Samurai, I can't use anything else. When I got started, I used my first earnings from IM toward buying Market Samurai.
    It sometimes gets slow when analyzing several hundred keywords, but the benefits outweigh this slowdown as you can. I usually do the initial search using Google Keyword Tool and then import the keywords into MS for the analysis. What would take hours using Google's tool takes minutes in MS!

    Google Adwords Keyword Tool is a valuable resource to use, but it will tell you virtually nothing about the competition level to rank for a particular keyword.

    To gauge the competition strength you can use free tools like SEOquake and Traffic Travis to help.

      I would go for keyword blaze. I don't think there is any real competition for this tool, but that's just my opinion.

    Are you serious? I tested KE2.0, and damned, it completely sucks. I already tested lots of keyword tools, and KE2.0 was even worst than the free ones.

    better go with keyword blaze.

    If you can't afford Market Samurai you can look into Micro Niche Finder.

    Stealth Keyword Competition Analyzer by Alex Safie is also a good choice. It will help you to find the golden keywords after using the GKW tool.

    I recommend using Google AdWords keyword tool to search for good keywords, I use it allot, but if you are trying to do some advance keyword search use MarketSumuria, or MicroNicheFinder.

    Kindest,
