When i do my searches with the Google keyword tool i use the exact amount of searches and use the Global Monthly Search Volume.

Is this the best way to to search for keywords?

How do you guys do it?

    Here is how I go about mine:

    First, I start with "broad" to get extensive
    keywords with synonyms turned on.

    Second, I select, copy and paste the keywords
    that are relevant to me into a notepad.

    Thereafter, I copy the selected keywords in
    my notepad back to Google Keyword Tool.
    This time I will uncheck the synonyms.

    Third, I will select the "phrase" match and then
    click the "get keywords" button.

    With enough keywords from this exercise I can
    now go to Google home page to check for competition.

    I use Firefox browser. At a glance I can see the strength
    of my prospective competitors. Most time I use the
    Allintitle: "search term" modifier to size the market.

    If you decide to handpick a keyword, it means you must
    put in extra efforts to build backlinks. This is to consolidate
    your ranking position. Otherwise, you will loose your position
    sooner than you get there.

    Hope that helps.

    I like to check with the "exact" setting just to double check and then confirm the amount of competition by searching Google with my long tail keyword with quotes, and also without.

    one thing I would suggest is to use atleast one more keyword tool to check accuracy of results.
