Hello, There is a keyword which i searched in google adword tool and it showed that the particular keyword is globally searched by 40,500 people monthly but in 5 days i only had one visitor coming through that keyword or phrase and im ranked 10th for that phrase.I came here at DP forum and found already a topic related to this but people over there said its may be the description that drives away the traffic from the site but in my case trust me the 2 links above me have description much spammy than mine.Plus, I am a blogger user so it gets the description automatically from the last paragraph of my post though i believe the first paragraph would attract more people.Any ideas whats going wrong? or what should be done? Thank You
Many times we don't get good stats from google tools too . Always try to search few keywords then after searching keywords go to google suggest and check keywords related to that and then again search for those keywords in google tool . By this you can get judgement about that keyword . I always target 500 to 1000 globally searched keywords and they are really easy to target and provides me daily 3 to 5 visitors per article .
Is it a 'reverse keyword'? One that doesn't seem to make sense maybe? What I'm talking about is that the Google Keyword Tool will tell you that certain 'reverse keywords' have a big search volume when they do not. For example, if you use the keyword tool for the keyword "brown horse", you will see it has approximately 33,000 searches a month according to the tool. Now check the results for the keyword "horse brown". It will also show 33,000 searches a month. Obviously more people would search for "brown horse" than "horse brown". The Google Keyword Tool does not evaluate search volume estimations with regards to word placement within a keyword phrase. To the tool, "polar bear" and "bear polar" are the same keyword. Ironically, to the Google SERPS, these two keywords are different.
Well,you made an interesting point.I wasn't aware about that fact didn't think about it either.So from now Google Adword Tool + Common Sense lol
I have noticed this as well. Doesn't help keyword research as in some cases it gives you the impression that you have found a good keyword niche but the reality is many more page results and competition!
