I was looking through google keyword tool at some search phrases and ran across "how to electric" it gets 55,000,000 searches per month. The domain was not taken so i registered it an have started making a site.

I am in the electrical technology field (19 years)and am writing all the material myself so it will be all unique content.

Am I on the right path here? I just could not believe the 55 million searches per month and wanted to make sure i was not looking at the keyword tool wrong. Should i include "how to electric" in all my articles?

I chose wordpress but im not happy with the site yet.

Any advice or comments are welcome.

Thanks.

    Sorry to inform you but you just made a newbie mistake. "How to electric" gets 55000000 million BROAD searches/month, but the EXACT search count is 170... meaning only 170 people/month type in the search engine the exact phrase "how to electric". Broad searches include all phrases that have some form of the phrase "how to electric" in them, which is why the broad search count is so high. For keyword research, you should ignore the broad search count and only look at the exact search count.

    hi , always do check the "Exact Match" option in the left side of the screen in google keyword tool because this keyword is only getting 170 searches/month only so it's not worth it at all
    and if you have tapped into a high search volume keyword just analyze the keyword "Trends" from the "Google Insight" you will find it when you move your mouse on the keyword,and why u should use this feature because sometimes some keywords may have a huge search volume but in a specific interval only.

    Regards.
