How I Make Keywords Improve My Search Engine Rankings

Finding proper keywords is a big part of your success online. If you plan to receive the traffic from search engines - you need your site and its pages to get nice positions in Google, Yahoo and other major engines for the niche keywords.

However many people follow the same mistake and choose the keywords that have huge search demand (read: many people type that keywords into Google) but fail to admit that the competition for these keywords is HUGE.

That is why you need to focus your energy and SEO efforts on the keywords that are nicely balanced:

  • have nice search demand (the amount of searches in the net)
  • have moderate competition

I decided to share my personal tips of how I do that.

This video shows how I find huge amount of keywords that are 'officially' approved by Google. By the way, I recommend to open this tool right now and follow my video advice step by step, in real time together with me. This way you will remember forever how to do that.

 

After you have found a nice pack of keywords, it is time to choose the ones that have moderate competition.

I have created another keyword research video - it shows how I see how many REAL competitors are for the keyword.

  • If exact phrase match (your keyword in quotation marks - like this "your keywords") shows less than 2,000 results
  • And if allintitle:"your keywords" shows less than 50 results

Then you can pick this keyword and use it for titles of the pages and backlinks' anchor text, because with this amount of competition you will see yourself on the 1st page of search engines very quickly.

P.S. I will publish more keyword researching video tips shortly. Those who want to get videos automatically - subscribe to blog RSS feed.
