Effective Keyword Research For Beginners

So youve learned about SEO

So youve learned about SEO. Youve researched everything about how to be first in Google and you are definitely hyped with all the things you found out. And probably, youve read about the black hats and the white hats, the backlinks, the social media optimization, and most of all, the heart of it all keywords.

But yes, we know what keywords are already and the primary role it plays in a virtual drama named Search Engine Optimization. Now, the problem here is, how on earth can we find a nice keyword to target for our web site? How will we make sure that our terms are being searched by non-paid Internet users in the actual life? Surely, only a person as wise (and as fictional) as Batman knew how to sneak inside Google to see what particular words do researchers punched in the search engine. So thats when we have to apply some effective keyword research.

Basically, research involves some patience, and some admittance that you really dont know what words does a normal searcher use to find businesses like yours. Most often than not, an SEO will tend to be biased to his web site when he tries to type common phrases. As a site admin, you know which one will show your site. But unfortunately, the common net user does not.

Another thing you should avoid is generic terms. Yes, you have all the freedom to target whichever keyword you like, but if you target for popular terms without relevance to your products, youll end up famous but without clients.

The first key is play pretend. Put yourself in the place of a prospective client who is just trying to find a product like yours. Punch in phrases and never mind whether they are too broad, too particular, or too basic; even too nonsensical. These terms and phrases are more likely to be typed by humans. And most of the time, your client searchers are those who didnt know much about your business stuff, so act like human. Pretend youre ignorant of SEO and industrial jargons even for just once.

After you created a list of your possible words based on your play pretend, you may now use the advanced keyword research tool. But use it to your advantage. Some targets have high competition, while some have low but are not frequently searched for. Level the competitiveness of your terms with the current competitiveness of your business in the market. Remember to bite of only those that you can chew, pick only which you can compete for.

After carefully handpicking what terms you should use, narrow them down to a list of 20. In that way, you will know where to concentrate and how to structure them. Most of all, remember that effective keyword research does not need to be too robotic. You may use your instinct on which words will increase in hits after some time. Remember that targeting specific terms does not mean sacrificing the quality of your content. In fact, good content will always win in the long run. So ready your keywords and start writing for humans, not spiders.
