    Hi Guys,

    Went to use the free Overture "Keyword Selector Tool" today for some ideas for new PPC campaign and found only a Yahoo sales pitch for their PPC schemes?

    Has the "Keyword Selector Tool" gone the journey ?


    Any idea's ?

    It was old tool and since yahoo bought overture they've decided to get rid of it.

    The data wasn't very useful anyway.

    Use this tool instead:

    yeah, I agree with searchnology. Wordtracker has never been that much use to me.

    It's good that yahoo stopped that, as they stopped updating keyword search volume way back jan2007.
    Try google keyword search, it's better than yahoo.

    Yahoo took down there keyword tool and will be replacing it with a new one in the future.

    Second of all, Google has introduced actual numbers in their keyword suggestion tool; so now you can see the exact number of searches per month on each keyword.
