There are so many keyword tools out there, why keyword elite? You have to ask yourself that why YOU choose keyword elite instead of other. Have you bought any keyword tool before? If you have, have you ever wondered why you still want to buy keyword elite? If the answer is your other keyword tool is not as good, then can you be sure that keyword elite is going to be much better? Stop spending money unwisely. I BUY Keyowrd Elite, because to me it is the best tool for my business. How about yours?

This example uses the keywords meta tag for the home page of our dinosaur website. The words after 'content=' are the keywords that are considered important by the person (in this case me) who wrote the HTML for the page. From this meta tag you can find out some of the keywords that are being targeted on the page. Add any keywords used in this tag to your list.
Once you have your list of keywords it's time to find out if anyone searches for them. You can do this by using the Overture' search term suggestion tool. The Overture' search term suggestion tool shows you how many times a certain keyword was searched for the previous month. You can use this tool to find out how many times people search for keywords related to your website. For example, go to the Overture' search term suggestion tool and type in 'dinosaur'. Then click the button to the right. You will now see a screen that shows a big table of keyword phrases that include the word dinosaur. Here is an example snippet of the list for September 2004:
109644 dinosaur 15899 dinosaur picture 8433 dinosaur costume 5548 dinosaur game 5419 barney the dinosaur 5018 dinosaur fossil 4575 dinosaur toy
The number to the left is the number of times people searched for a particular keyword. The words to the right of the numbers are the keyword phrases that were searched for.
One thing you will notice is that most people search using only one or two keywords, sometimes 3 or 4. So at this point in time, optimizing your site for keyword phrases longer than 3-4 words is a waste of time.
Keyword Ranking We all know it and we all do it. Whenever the typical web user needs to find .....
Special Note: Research suggests that people who use longer keyword phrases (3 or more words) are more likely to buy products. This is probably because they are more likely to be looking for a specific product.
Another important note is that the Overture' tool does not distinguish between singular and plural keywords.
Using the example above you can see that people searched for dinosaur over 100,000 times in September. The dinosaur business is fairly competitive for the keywords 'dinosaur' and 'dinosaurs'. In retrospect, I would have done better to have optimized our site for the keywords 'dinosaurs for kids', rather than 'dinosaur time machine'. That way we could have become highly ranked for the keywords 'dinosaurs for kids' (which we are currently in Google', Yahoo', and MSN'). The word 'dinosaurs' is contained in the phrase 'dinosaurs for kids', which means we eventually would have been ranked higher for the word 'dinosaurs' as well.
