    I would say it shows an idea, not smack on, but something to go by at least.

    Hi

    Depends on your settings and whether the campaign will be geographically targeted. KeyWord Sply will show you a better idea of the number of times keywords have shown in my opinion.

    My experience is that the click volumes can be out by a factor of 10 and I'd always start at half the shown CPC

    I would NOT trust in Google's traffic estimator as it is very vague and the results usually vary quite a lot based on my previous experience.

    That is just an estimated data showing and nothing is accurate.. you have to just take the approximate volumes and decide..
