Keywords for a video game site

The game isnt out yet but i am trying to predict the keywords which will most targetted at release time.


Example current popular keywords "super mario", "super mario game" "super mario xbox 360" etc.

Does anyone have any advice? thanks.

 

Try to find out how competitive those keywords are using Google Adwords Keyword Tool.

 

yeah thats what i have been using to get my stats now. My biggest problem is trying to guess the best keywords at release of the game and future after that. Wondering if anyone had experience in predicting the future

 

I suggest you to use "super mario" , "super mario brothers" , super mario video game" , "super mario (xbox, ps, or pc, whatever you like, you can use all.)
Target broad keywords and exact keywords that is realted to your game. That's it. We all can't predict the future. But we can decide now what the future could be.

Keyword researching is really critical and really needs tactical choosing. So goodluck with it.

 

keyword is very important for website, use keyword research tool for selecting right keyword, use google adward for keyword research, it is the best tool for keyword selecting.

 

Awesome thanks for all who replied. Any other tools to use besides the google adwords tool?

 

Of course!
There is a pretty much of such a tools! Look Semrush, Spyfu or Wordtracker for example. Here is report of the "Super mario" keyword from semrush:

best way is to user adwords keyword tool..

 

While there is no keyword predictor (otherwise we'd all be using it), you can ask your initial customers what keywords they used in finding your product. You can also turn on Google Analytics and it keeps track of keywords used in searches when people vistie your website from search results.

You may not predict the future, but you can see what works from the sales you do make and build on that. That's why stores put codes in coupons or direct market letters. They track what is working and what isn't. Otherwise you're flying blind.

If this were a sports game, would you do the same play each time regardless of the result, or would you try several and then concentrate on the plays that work? You can then try similar plays to the ones that work to keep building the best strategy.

 

Awesome thanks for the help all.

 

What games are you going to have on your site? Try targeting those and check the competition for those and see if it works for you. Google also gives an idea of futuristic trends that can help your cause.
