Keyword Country (aff link) claims to have several features over its competitors: (CITATION) What strikes me most is their statement that google Adwords " is full of BOGUS HIGH PAYING KEYWORDS. There are many keywords in Google Adwords system that have high CPC like $50+ but no advertisers bidding on them. Obviously, no one is going to pay you like $15 or $50 if there are no advertisers bidding on a keyword. These are the number of Advertisers bidding on the keyword. This is the most important figure that you need while choosing keywords for Adsense which all other tools are missing. (/CITATION) and (CITATION) Average CPC adds to your power of judging high paying keywords. Average CPC is actually the average of what ALL THE ADVERTISERS bidding on a given keyword. Most of the tools available in the market give you a misleading Avg CPC. Their figures are misleading because they only take the average of the top 3 to 8 positions. This is absolutely wrong. Suppose there are 400 advertisers. The top 20 or 50 pay something like $15 per click, while the rest of them pay as low as $2 to $0.05. In such a case the tools that just pick the top 3-8, advertisers, completely ignoring the rest all the sponsors who pay quite less, befool you. They befool you by certifying some fake keywords as Good Keywords. Now if you pick the keywords that these tool project as the high paying ones, you will be at loss. There is a high probability that you will get the ads of those ignored 380 sponsors. (/CITATION) So..he is basically saying theor service is the best and all the others are more or less useless. Your opinion ?
For me, I will use wordtracker and overture. Just like we will use google and not the other new search engines.
In my opinion the best free keyword tool is http://www.wordpot.com. Wordpot is extremely fast and easy to use. They also show related words and associated words.
loooks like you have to sign up to use it.. do ya? i dont like thinks that i have to sign up for.. but if you dont need to be a member it may be usefull.
I also used keyword country and it's good especially if you are looking for a certain keyword to target for your adsense.
Keyword Country is definitely good if you really want to get in there and know what individual keywords and niches are worth in adsense/adwords, but if you are just starting out with this stuff, its not necessary. It is expensive. What are you looking to do? Matt
I use Micro Nice Finder 3... been using it for a while now and am over the moon. It gets some of it's info from WordTracker but then adds much much more, such as competition and let's you search by country. It also helps you find affiliate products to promote with your new long tail keywords. I love it!! I wrote an article about it here on Brent Crouch Dot Com Micro Niche Finder Review - Find Long Tail Keywords - Keyword Research and you can also get a link to another one in my footer. I have never used Keyword Elite though and was wondering what it is like?
try to use it for non english keywords like كتاب and you will not get resultsmaybe its good but i cant use it to make keyword analysis for arabic keywords
I think adwords keyword tool is a complete keyword tool.As for advertisers competition,adwords shows it through a bar.More filled bar means there is more competition.
In my opinion, Keyword Country is one of the best paid keyword research tools. It is pricey but well worth it. Here's an article I wrote on my site about it: Keyword Country Review There are also some videos near the bottom of the page. Keyword Discovery and Keyword Elite are two of my other favorites.
Since you are new to internet marketing I would suggest Google Adwords. It should easily provide the keyword data you need for local business SEO.
oh its not a great tool, we prefer the google keyword or overture. this company actually based in india and they are actually not having great technicality in their software. in fact we have tested this software with language keyword where its not running, several dictionary based words are also not working, its a very dummy sought of software which was made by this indian company. its all wasteless to using this software. so be think before using their membership
i do agree that keyword country is not the best tool...i have used it before...it takes ages to get even the search result...if you are looki g for a monthly paid keyword research tool...check out...SEcockpit...the best keyword tool that i know of as of now...its web based
Yes i also use keyword country tools. It is a good keyword research tools. But Google add words keyword tools is the best keyword tools these days. [h=1][/h]
Keyword Country is a great tool. I just visited that website and it was quite impressive. I use Google Adword and spyfu tool to find the keyword that best suits the business site the most.
