I am currently following a dropshipping course. I am in the analyzing competition and choosing niche section. I have used google's keyword planner and they are only giving me very broad estimates for the keyword and related keywords. An example 1-1000, 1,000-10,000 etc.

I cannot afford long tail pro

please help

    Hey there!


    There was a post about this yesterday! Yep that's what google is doing now


    they don't want to leak anymore power keywords so as marketers we need to adapt


    for example now I look at keyword volume as targeting at least 1k-10k!

        The only problem with that is that it is giving you search results in Bing, not in Google.

        If you ever did a comparison between the two, the data they spit out is much, much different.

        Also, if you have ever run a PPC campaign in BingAds, you will know that Bing's data is even more inaccurate than what Google supplies.

        I am not saying that you cannot get some good ideas from Bing, but just be careful before you go building a whole project around data from the Bing keyword tool.

    GKP got updated in September man. And it is working, just not how you want it to.

    Try these tools:

    Keyword.io
    Keysearch.co
    Keywordshitter.com
    Keywordseverywhere.com

    I see another way works well is that, you use another gmail account to create new MCC adwords account, then add your main Adwords account to that MCC. Use MCC account to do the research.

    This sounds normal now.
    It still works, just not to the effect you want it to work.

    As always, a tool is just a tool, it just gives some info, the rest is up to you to decide and make decisions on.

    It was a smart change by Google. No more freeloaders.

    There was a time when it made a lot of sense for them to share that data for free. It was a sales tool for AdWords before AdWords was as big and popular as it is now.

    At this point, it is just a waste of resources for them to put that data out there for everyone.

    Hey!
    Try RankTracker from SEO PowerSuite (free version should work for that), they have recently released a new method of calculating the search volume which is based on the results from AdWords + Google Trends (still, that`s enough to have a free account with ranges to get the exact figures in the end). The data is being normalized and adjusted somehow additionally on their side. I`m still in the middle of testing, but so far the results look reasonable. The only trouble is that the calculations take a while now, hopefully they`ll speed it up in future.

    You need to start spending money with AdWords if you want to get real numbers.

    The Bing idea isn't perfect but if you triple the search volume numbers, you'll get a fairly close estimate of Google traffic for keywords.

    Neither tool is ever going to show you how difficult it is to rank for keywords organically. You need a paid tool for that.
