    We have what we consider to be the best tool as part of our online course. Forum rules do not permit us to direct you to that tool. Other than that, MOZ has a fairly decent keyword research tool as part of their $100/month suite of tools.

    There are 3 that I use regular:

    Keyword Tool #1 FREE Alternative To Google Keyword Planner for SEO (free, no account/sign up required) The .io tool is good, because it gives you results from Google, Bing, YouTube, and Amazon. Allowing you to see the difference each keyword gets between each search engine.

    Google AdWords Keyword Planner Tool (free; sign up for free Google AdSence/AdWords/Analytic account - then go to AdWords dashboard, click Tools > Keyword Planner) The AdWords Keyword Planner is probably your best bet. It's the one that tells you if competition is high/medium/low and also tells you what the current bid price is (AdSence pays 61% of the bid price; so an AdWords bid price of a $1 = AdSence paying you .61c.) In addition to seeking low competition, you also want to find bid prices of MORE then $1, preferably more then $5 and if possible in the $20 to $30 range (which is very difficult to find)

    The other one I use is BrainstormIt, Brainstorm It! v3 - An Advanced Keyword Research Tool | Build an Online Business With SBI! but that one not free and is part of a SEO training course that has weekly SEO lesson plans costs $30 a month. I recommend it if you are looking into their entire program, but if you just want the keyword tool alone, the other 2 I've listed are not that much different and they are both free. BrainstormIt gives you all the results of both tools above, plus it horizontal and vertical search results (meaning it gives you 2 additional types of lists - one that compares your keyword with seedwords added to it, for example "self publishing + Maine businesses" as well as a synanomn search "vanity press" etc in addition to self- publishing). It then takes the top 500 words from all the lists, aggregates them into a big list and then here the biggie, then it looks for the top 500 websites using those keywords and compiles a list of "competing urls" allowing you to directly visit the sites that are ranking #1 in your chosen niche. This way I'm able to see EXACTLY who is #!, what they are doing, how they are doing it, and can compare it to what I'm doing in order to improve my own ranking.

    All three of these tools are similar. What you do is, you type in your niche/topic and click search, and it gives you a list of all the top similar keywords for that same niche.

    For example, say your topic is self publishing... you type the word self-publishing, click search, and it give you are list of 100 to 600 or more relevant keywords on the topic of self-publishing.

    What I like to do, is use the same keyword in each tool, then compare the results of all 3 (.io, AdWords, and BrainstormIt) to see which keywords are best for the article I'm writing. I write a new article every day, so I get a lot of use out of these 3 keyword tools, use them daily, and most times I end up with pretty good results.

    None of the tools EelKat mentioned give you a real competitive analysis score. The two free ones just give you the number of searches and the "competition" numbers in Google Keyword planner are for PAID ads - not for free organic listings. The final tool he lists sounds like it does a little more but still does not seem to give you a competitiveness score for the seed keyword nor any of the keywords it reveals. Getting a list of who is ranking for what is not much help (I can see that for myself by entering any given keyword phrase). A real keyword tool will show you who is ranking and WHY they are ranking that well and will also give you a good idea of how hard it will be for you to rank ORGANICALLY for the phrase you entered AND all of the related ones it reveals.

    thanks for details,

    I'm really confused, I don't know what to do, am not thinking about any niche and i haven't product, i did a lot of searches about e commerce so I have an idea about these tools , my issues are:
    - how to find a profitable niche
    - I tried affiliate program (clickbank, amazon...) and youtube partner but I got a big zero in my balance because of high competition,
    - how to analyze competition (is there any online course that explain with details and using examples)
    - how can I offer a good and unique content, can I translate a content of known websites from english to other language and targetting other countries

    Before investing, I have to be sure about niche, keywords, content...

    I will be gratefull if you show me the right way

  • Google Adwords Keyword Planner is an excellent tool to conduct keyword research that you can use for your targeted e-commerce website.

      I tried Google adwords keyword Planner several times, the issue is the high competition, otherwise other keywords with less than 1000 of monthly searches

        Most websites have many, many pages. If you have 100 pages each targeting a different keyword phrase that gets just 180 searches per month, that's 600 searches per day. Stop looking for the magic keyword phrase and start thinking of the website as a whole.

    You can go to similarweb.com and see what keywords sites similar to yours rank for. Also, make sure you don't rank for keywords that have very low competition, that generally means that not a lot of people search up those keywords. Hope this helps.

    What are keywords research ?

    Keyword research is when people use keywords to find and research actual search terms that people enter into search engines. The knowledge about these actual search terms can help inform content strategy, or marketing strategy overall.
