why doesnot google show how many times particular keyword was searched for

goole does show graphical display on https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

however are there any tools that will show correct statistics for how many time a keyword was searched for

 

then we can calculate KEI and possibly screw the results.

 

Since Overture went down the tools I have been using have been WordTracker (in the Firefox plugin!) and Trellian Keyword Discovery.

Aaron Wall changed up his Keyword tool at SEObook.com so that it was factoring based off of Wordtracker (it used to use Overture as well).

Now I bounce back and forth between all three to get an decent idea of what to target.

I do wish Overture would come back. Does anyone have any idea when that may happen? It has been down for a long time.

The Trellian tool will also do KEI.

 

word tracker is good too. i'm in pos 4 of a keyword and i receive daily visitors 4-5 times the number told to me by wordtracker, only from that keyword, but it is good for me to make an idea, i can compare the traffic i receive for this keyword being 4th on the search results
