Best Keyword

retired_member16 · 29-01-2009, 08:36:37 AM

I have a cheeky little 3 letter that is hitting 30uvs a day and running 30% CTR for the keywork "computer hardware" - set because of the names historical use.

Only problem is this keyword is only 3c EPC on Sedo. What would be the best alternatives? Is there somewhere I can look to gain an idea of better keywords for it?

I have been guilty of just buying and parking and not really caring about the keyword before but I would be silly to ignore the figures this one has.

Thanks!

I take it you are aware of https://adwords.google.co.uk/select/KeywordToolExternal

Type in general keyword, sort alternative keywords by CPC

Can be very powerfull combined with something like wordtracker, but thats quite a chunck of money a year and not amazing for UK results.

I don't know if keywordtracker is of any use to anyone, but feel free to have a go. Just type in your own keyword or combo, and see what comes up ($'s) though I'm afraid.

Google's external keyword traffic stats aren't accurate imo, although the CPC / PPC info might be. The traffic stats have shown impossible numbers in the past.

It's been around a long time but not sure if it follows UK search traffic or just US.

I get a month top 300 keyword report from them, and all it shows is the usual top level sites such as google, YouTube, etc. and loads of porn sites.

The UK search results on word tracker are at best an indictation or rough estimate, and alot more accurate once drilled down into google keywords. Word tracker is great for keyword gathering though.

I tend to use word tracker for keyword gathering, filter them down in KRA Pro and then filter the smaller list down with Google Keyword tool.

Not sure mate, I focus solely on the keyword in the url. For example, latest phones = latestphones-co-uk

Google always seem to be accurate for that, and that is across all my sites. Just done a search on "latest phones" with word tracker and that seems way out to me compared to the numbers coming to the site.

IMO as long as you mark Google Keyword Tool to "Exact" then it's pretty accurate.
