I'm curious how others are doing keyword research and how well it works for them?

The main tool is the paid service from www.Wordtracker.com. Most professional SEOs only use this and look down on all other tools.

There is a new service that I don't know much about called Keyword Discovery and I'd like to hear about that if anyone has tried it.

Overture, now Yahoo, has provided a keyword search tool for many years that a lot of people use because it is free and also quite effective. I use this data, but I do so with the free program from www.GoodKeywords.com. The company that makes GK also makes some other very good tools and some will be of interest to domainers.

I used to play with overture data in past. Haven't been doing much SEO things from sometime.

But keyword discovery looks promising.

I m doing SEO since last six months and i m using wordtracker and keyword digger right now.and getting good results on that.but new to this keyword discovery and goodkeyword.com

Ok, I found www.keyworddigger.com. This is almost the same thing as what www.GoodKeywords.com offers, but it has more functions and features. Actually, they have something new. If you go to http://www.softnik.com you can get their new "KeywordPad".

http://www.keyworddiscovery.com/

$50 bucks a month? is it worth it?

http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com/ best one and free one so far.

why not to use the adwords program from google??
i mean it provides results from google search queries...what else do u want??
i have been using google keyword search for adwords?

I use that google adwords tool. But recently I saw one thread on another forum that one guy did choosed his keywords based on that adwords tool and it was showing him 400 queries per day. Now he is on #1 for that keyword and he is getting 2 hits from Google.com

I don't know why that kind of thing happened to him or was he just making up the story.

oh....thats a strange story, there is more possibility that hes faked it...coz this sounds impossible...#1 in google for a keyword and 400 queries for that keyword and just 2 hits, looks quite farfetched!!

LOL now that would have really made that guy insane. He thought he will get 400 hits or atleast 200 out of it being at #1 position on the search engine and he gets 2.

Maybe he is faking that story or there is some serious mistake on the users side.

Ooops just completed my 900 posts :grin:
