Finding the right keywords for your subject Part 1 Demand

In my last post i told how i got a subject for my site. In this post im going to tell how to generate keywords for it where people actually look for. With this keywords we can get search engine listings (listings in Google, Yahoo and MSN). To find those keywords i made my own “Keyword Tool Center” Its made of three windows.

  • Demand
  • Supply
  • Breakout

In this post we are going to take out the demand part.

Demand

My first merchant program where i talked about before has made a special tool to make it easier for us to find keywords. Its called Search IT. Search IT is a 4 step tool who makes it easier to find good keywords.

Step 1
Go to the Search IT toolbox and select “brainstorming” at the first step.

Step 2
For the first time i used overture from Yahoo. Overture is a tool that tells you how many times each keyword was searched for during the month that its indicated for. Ofcourse its not 100% accurate, but its a great indicator of popular search terms.

Step 3
I filled in my keyword “ebook”

Step 4ebooks-overture
I dont have a 2nd search term so i will leave this one empty.

Ok i pressed the Seach It button and i got this result
As you can see in december there was searched 113630 for ebook and 24400 for free ebook. So we know now that this is the demand for the keyword ebook.
Mind that these numbers are always indicators of the real thing.
Tomorrow im going to explain the part about supply.
