You don&#8217;t have to pay monthly subscription to get accurate, up to date keyword information. This free keyword tool can help anyone with their online marketing efforts. <\/p>\n<p>No matter what type of online advertising you are doing, having a great list of targeted keywords is imperative. If you don&#8217;t, you will either have ineffective campaigns or you will waste a lot of money on pay per click campaigns, or both. There is a fine line between a good keyword and a keyword that simply has too much competition. <\/p>\n<p>You need to find the keywords that land somewhere in the middle between a decent amount of searches and too much competition. That is a rookie mistake: thinking that a keyword that gets a ton of searches every month is a good keyword to target. The truth is that any keyword like that will be hugely competitive. <\/p>\n<p>Even if you can afford to spend the money on that keyword, why?  In virtually every niche online there are many, many keywords that aren&#8217;t so competitive that it will cost you an arm and a leg to advertise with them yet you can still get a lot of monthly searches. Unless you&#8217;re a glutton for punishment I would steer clear of the overly competitive keywords and focus more of your attention on those keywords that fly under the radar. <\/p>\n<p>A good rule of thumb is to target keyword phrases that have three or more words, get at least 1,500 searches a month and have less than 20,000 competitors. These parameters will be a great place to start. You will be able to tune it in more as you go along but you need somewhere to start, so use this guideline. <\/p>\n<p>When doing your keyword research make sure that you carefully consider the parameters for the exact type of campaign you are planning on running. For example, if you are running a pay per click (PPC) campaign, you&#8217;ll want to have a ball park idea of how much each keyword will cost you when it&#8217;s clicked on. <\/p>\n<p>The average cost per click is one of the details you can include in your keyword research. Of course, this is just an estimate, but it gives you a place to start.  Another thing you may want to consider is the amount of competition. This too can be found (an estimate only, it&#8217;s not a &#8216;solid&#8217; number) when doing keyword research using the Google keyword tool. All of this can be put together to give you a snap shot of what keywords are good ones to go after and which ones will most likely be a waste of time. <\/p>\n<p>Out of all the major search engines: Google, MSN and Yahoo, Google is the top dog. You can benefit from their knowledge about the people who are using their search engine to find information online. Using Google keywords<\/p>\n<p> will give you a unique insight as to what words and phrases people are looking for when doing a search online. Finding these keywords can be like finding a treasure map. If you put together a great campaign using great keywords it&#8217;s just a matter of time until you&#8217;ll find internet treasure. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google Keywords &#8211; Can Make Or Break You Using google keywords tools makes your online life a little easier.
