    Hi Guys,

    I'm looking for a tool which will give me the number of searches for a specific keyword/s. I'm developing a keyword strategy and need to know the most popular keywords. What's the best tool out there?

    Also is there something you can use to see what position you are currently in?

    Any advice is appreciated.

    Thanks

    They aren't useless, its just that we prefer different tools to look for some keywords.. BTW i use overture for KW suggestions; and Keyword Discovery, Google trends for KW analysis

    you can try http://inventory.overture.com/ and google adwords as a good tool for it.

    If want to know the list of keywords where you already ranked, try this
    seodigger.com

    What are you using now that Overture is down? Does anyone have any idea when or if it will be up?

    I read an article that said that Yahoo was going to make it better. Any one heard any more on that??

    Thanks,

    I've notice it also. Overture is often down. What seems to be the problem with that tool. It;'s one of a good tool that I've use but I can't use it now.

    It's always down because, from what I heard, they're trying to slowly get rid of it.

    The data is almost a year old now... I would NOT rely on the Overture Tool!

    Clenard thanks for the info, but I would not really bet my life on the results of the tool, but it has always helped in my research and I even created my own version of it http://geoland.org/tools/searchqueries/

    Of course, anything depending on the overture tool won't work these days
