Selecting your keywords?

[3dmagicaldesign]

Here are some helpful tips when selecting keywords

1) Use tools such as the search term suggestion tool at http://www.keywordbox.com and wordtracker to determine which related keywords or key phrases it would be the best to optimize your site for.

2) Once you have a list of potential keywords, go to Google and type in those keywords, then see how many incoming links the top few sites have. You can determine this by typing " link:www.domainyouneedtoanalyze.com".

3) Take a look at whether the first few sites have the targeted keyword in the domain name, in the title or often on their page.

This information will help you to estimate what it would take to get your site above the current sites in the rankings.

I always trust my intuition when I choose my keywords.
I ask myself, what would I type in the search box if I was looking for this or that"
In most cases I'm successful with my keywords

I own a few destination specific travel sites and I have stopped using those keyword tools. If you know a destination well enough then you can kind of guess which keywords will be frequently searched. Many of my most popular keywords can not be seen in any keywords lists produced by those keyword tools.

use adwords keyword tool. it is really easy to use and you get results without guessing. choose one keyword (bullseye keyword) that is popular but not to difficult to get results with (results meaning a good page and position on search engines) and include this word in your website - in the description, keywords, meta tags, alt tags, headers, footers etc.

Great tips! And the resources, I can make good use of them. In addition, pick a keyword that is related to your niche but is unique and does not have much competition and work your links toward that keyword.

The Adwords Keyword Tool can be used for keyword research. All Adwords users have access to this tool.

For keyword research, I use Google keyword suggestion tool and Wordtracker. Both of these tools are great.

I guess if you know exactly what your targeted buyers or viewers are then even without the keyword tools help then you know what are the right keyword you can use for your site.

I use google keyword toolbar, I find it efficient than the other paid keyword tool.

It is. But some of their experimental tools that they have definitely compliment it. So your not just caged into the Adwords tool
