How do I check how many searches are done for a keyword?

As previous members have said, Google Adwords is a great tool for researching amount of monthly searches on a particular keyword(s), also Estibot premium appraisals have exact and broad monthly searches included in their info readouts, too, which is pretty helpful for market analysis.

 

Just spare quality keywords and don't try to dare disturb their search amounts each year just to reduce cost of your low converting keywords.

 

Again, can you clarify?

 

I find that a lot of these Keyword tools are very inaccurate. I have paid for a few on these Keyword tools and when I go to check out another site it says something completely different. It is very frustrating, especially when you are trying to make your website. You need to know the best keywords to target.

I just feel who would know better than google itself what keywords are getting the most searches. I think I will stick with google because anything else is not that accurate. How is it possible for every keyword site to say something completely different. It's a mystery to me.
