Analyse Keywords Competition on Search Engine

April 6, 2008 – 2:11 pm

Keywords CompetitionAfter we have a tool to analyze our keywords, we must know what keywords our competitors are targeting. That’s where researching our competition comes in, bringing us to the 2nd part of the Analyze : Competition.
Your Competition Can Run, but They Can’t Hide
There are several things we are going to need to analyze when it comes to competitor websites, but as with any project there is a specific sequencing you’re going to need to follow in order to achieve quality results. Here is an outline of the tasks and sequence, which we’ll elaborate on in a moment:
1. Obtain a hefty list of potential keywords using a Keyword Analyzer.
2. Perform searches to see who is in the top 5 results.
3. List the competitors in the top 5 of your most valuable keyword searches.
4. Run a backlink check to count inbound links and to find out what keywords they are targeting.
5. List any keywords you discover that weren’t tested in the Keyword Analyzer.
6. Analyze the top competitor sites using an SEC Best Practices List.
7. List the best practices and keyword densities used by your competitors. (we’ll revisit this item later as well).
When you’re done, you’ll know what keywords to use. You’ll know which competitors you’ll be competing against and where they stand in the search engine results. I know this seems like a lot of work, and take it from me, it’s worth every minute.

There are tools available that perform ALL of the 7 items above and could save you hundreds of hours. Regardless of what you think you are worth per hour, it is definitely worth the investment to chip in for one of these all-in-one applications.

The Importance of Keywords on SEO

April 6, 2008 – 1:49 pm

keyword analysisKeywords are like puzzle pieces to the search engines, every word used on a webpage contributes to the big picture of what a site is all about. Used in the appropriate densities, it is these keywords that will ultimately determine how many people you can reach through the search engines.

Users type in keywords in the Search field to find what they are looking for. The search engine then reaches into its database to find the most relevant result. Relevant results are driven by different factors, mainly by keywords, but also by traffic and the number of links pointing in from external websites.

Getting the Right Keywords is Everything
So how do you know which keywords get searched for the most? There are literally hundreds of Keyword Analyzers on the Web. Only one has passed the test of time and to-date recognized as the authority on keyword searches: WordTracker. At the time of this writing, they are number one, not just because they have the largest following, but because their database spans 120 days, not just a single month like some others.

Another reason that recommend WordTracker is because of the results you generate from running queries on their database. The results return a Keyword Effective Index (KEI) that not only calculates the number of estimated searches, but also includes competitior numbers in the calculation. In other words, Number of Searches / Number of Competing Websites = KEI.

Overture, now Yahoo! Search Marketing, also has a Keyword Selector Tool (KWST) that gets a lot of hype. However, this tool has been noted to be skewed by developers. I’ve seen a lot of spam in the results myself in the past, so I don’t argue that this tool has some bugs. Another drawback of the KWST is that it consolidates plurals and has a man-made database of keywords and keyword phrases; most of which are in no particular sequence. Non-organic results aren’t as helpful to your keyword analysis.

For example, WordTracker may tell you that you can expect 4,303 daily searches for banana and 3,220 daily searches for bananas. Overture, on the other hand only has one term: banana, which it claims gets 2,384.5 daily searches (what’s a .5?). KWST is a great tool for determining which keywords get the most searches, but you can acquire a more accurate prediction of potential searchers using WordTracker.

However, this guide promises to deliver a free method to SEO, so I’m going to share another highly effective tool that shows both WordTracker and Overture results. Unfortunately, the WordTracker results won’t display KEI, but at least you can see the number of daily searches it estimates you can expect for your keyword. The site is DigitalPoint.com and here is a direct link to their free keyword analyzer:
http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/suggestion/

Hint to Using Keyword Analyzers: Keyword analyzers return a list of suggestions based on the words used in your search. Keep your searches ambiguous to uncover t best selection of terms to use. For example, if you sell banana boat covers, do a sear( for banana. You may find that there are 10 times as many people searching for banan boat umbrellas, which you wouldn’t have know if you were search for specific phrases

Okay, now we have a tool to analyze our keywords, but we still don’t know what keywords our competitors are targeting. We will explain about keyword competition on next post in this blog.

Although taking place in the group, holiday trip is the personal event indeed. Because of that, I suggest you don’t just believe to what people say about their experience carried out the same trip destination.

How’s to arrange cheap holidays without draining out your wallet? Here are the tips for planning an unforgettable holiday trip.

1. Determine the destination of your holiday trip.

2. Carry out some simple research about the destination place. Look for information through the internet or go to the library or the book shop and look for the guidebook about the place, region, the island or the continent that wanted to be visited.

3. Find out the latest information about the place. Make sure that the place is secure from war or intern conflict or endemic of certain disease.

4. Once you sure with the destination, the next step is determine what will be done there: shopping, trekking, diving, or hiking. If you still have no imagination at all about the activities, you may pick an all inclusive holidays package from travel agent.

5. Calculate the budget. This is the most difficult part but must be carried out. If you decide to not using travel agent, you must estimate the flight cost, the hotel, the food, shopping budget, etc. In this way you will have the rough estimation about the cost needed.
