Just saw the Google AdWords tool started providing real numbers of how many times keyword phrases are searched. I am not sure how Google comes about with these numbers. Say if I search 3 phrases on 3 separate occasions, each phrase being searched only once - search engine optimization, search engine optimization minneosta, minneapolis search engine optimization. Does Google count "search engine optimization" 3 times or just once? By looking at some of keyword phrases I was interested in, I guess Google counts the phrase 3 times, not 1. Love to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks!
