Says so a representative from Word tracker. A word tracker representative was answering a question from a user about the difference with adwords keyword suggestion tool and word tracker keyword tracking tool. He says "Hi there, my name's Mal Darwen, and I work for Wordtracker Customer Services. I hope the following is of some use to you: Google's Adwords tool can be a useful addition to the SEO's toolkit, although it does seem to be more geared towards the PPC market. However, the number of results returned by Google is 200 while with Wordtracker, users get and can download up to 1000 keywords. We feel that Google is using this new tool to generate new Adwords accounts from where it makes its money. Word tracker provides an independent keyword research service on a subscription basis - we do not make money from each keyword result that people might build on. While Google reports impressive search volumes, there are a number of caveats: * The figures Google provides are not actual searches but approximations. Like WT, Google takes a small sample and extrapolates an estimate from that. From our research that sample appears small but we're still investigating. * The default search position is 'broad match'. This highly inflates the search estimates for a particular keyword. Broad matches are often less targeted than exact or phrase matches. * The estimates returned by Google also contain searches from Google's content network. That's the wide range of sites that publish Google ads. * Google are also reporting monthly estimates while Wordtracker provides daily estimates. This means that on first examination the Google counts will seem much higher than WT. Wordtracker has always been completely open about where we get our data from. We take our information from two metacrawlers, Dogpile.com and Metacrawler.com. People use such search engines to search Google, MSN and Yahoo at the same time and as such provides very clean bot-free data. We get daily records which represents approximately just under 1% of daily searches across all search engines. As I say, I hope this makes things a little clearer."
Hello Friend, I have a strong in both of tools. But there is no issue that which is the best. Depends on us which keywords we select for our site.
^^^^^ what he said... google is a way more accurate with it's results.. I'm doing all my keyword research by hand with google and it takes me about half hour. But I know that my sites will be successful
if you want to rank your keyword in google, i would say google keyword suggestion is far more accurate
well, from the conversation it seems that wordtracker is good for PPC as well as SEO, but i think that if you are targeting Google search engine then you should use the Google Adwords Suggestion Tool. The important thing is that Adwords is a free tool to use and provides the data according to the months.
