    Use Google's keyword tool to find keywords that have sufficient traffic (exact match) and are profitable (high CPC). But Google's tool is not that good at finding longtail keywords, so enter the keywords that you've found into their regular searchengine and hit the space bar and it will give you suggestions for longer tail keywords based on what people have searched for. Kinda tedious, but sometimes you'll find longtail keywords that have traffic which is great because it contains a "nested" keyword as well.

    Google autocomplete is an excellent tool for finding long tail keywords. You just start typing your head terms into the search box and pick up the suggestions. The good thing is these suggestions are based on real searches, so you're good to go with these terms. I use Rank Tracker by link assistant to quickly gather suggestions from search engine autocomplete boxes. As far as tools go Wordstream also seem to do a good job with the long tail.

    Another great way to find the long tail is look at your referral or analytics logs to see what long tail terms people are already using to find your site. Then you just need to improve your rankings for those.

    Long tail keywords are used for specific pages of a web site.

    Using long tail keywords are effective though but it is more likely on conversion.

    Competition of longtail keyword is not as high. So it will lead to much more traffic to your website from the search engines

    Long tailed keyword are the best since competition is very low you'll have to hit other keywords as well it's like hitting two birds with one stone.:)

    Long tail keywords will drive more traffic to your site. For example if you run a blog on blogging tips, the long tail keyword will be best of blogging tips, top 10 blogging tips....etc
