If a person wants to start a website that would sell affiliate products (eg. jeans or t-shirts). What keywords one should target?
Use a keyword tool to search for some keywords - e.g. try these: https://freekeywords.wordtracker.com/searches/jeans https://freekeywords.wordtracker.com/searches/t-shirts or use the Google Adwords keyword tool. And I'd advise you to go for long-tail keywords.
Okay. If I want to sell Levis jeans... So the long tail keyword would be "buy Levis jeans", "cheap Levis jeans"?
Keywords should be very relevant to theme like jeans and T-shirts. Keywords like buy fashion tshirts fashion jeans stylish tshirts stylish jeans buy stylish jeans
It's better to use 4 or even more words in a long-tail keyword. I usually consider 3 words keyword as a mid-tail keyword. I've looked for some words in semrush, and can suggest you these long-tails; levis signature carpenter jeans levi strauss signature carpenter jeans levi strauss signature jeans for men levis 550 jeans for women where to buy levis jeans levis strauss signature jeans Or just make your own research, semrush shows me 516 phrase match keywords and 4000 related keywords. Hope this will help you. Good luck! =)
Its better to do a keyword research by your self, try to brainstorming your keyword and research it with your loved keyword tool ...
i would suggest to list all the keywords that comes on your mind first, ideally 2-3 words then when you're done with that run it on google adwords keyword tool...it'll list kws that is related with what you come up with, check the data and get its KEI then analyze if its worth targeting.. goodluck
Many good advice here. My 2 cents: I like to do research in Google trends and Google keywords research tool and find out which keywords I would like to target.
Good point Lincherry!! I usually take exact keywords from a given short keyword from Google Keyword External tool. I prefer to take the top keywords which have good global search volume.
Keyword, which is under 50 ranks on search engine, must be targeted in order to get better and fast result.
