Key To Success

Just today I came across a post written by a fellow Internet marketing “girl” and I thought straight away that I wanted to share it with you. It is about Keyword Marketing Research and contains some super tips on how to do it.

Getting your Keyword Marketing Research right is one of the most important steps you have to take and get right when trying to earn money online. If you do it wrong, all your efforts and time might be (actually – will very likely be!) wasted. And we don’t want that to happen, do we!

On the other hand, if you do your Keyword Marketing Research right, your success is so much more likely!

So I urge you to checkout PotPieGirls Blog Post (you might have heard of her already?), I have bookmarked the site in my “Keyword Research” folder so I will be able to get back to it no problem.

Here is the living proof: keyword marketing research does pay off!

To improve traffic to my website “Hawaiian Home Decor” I did some keyword research to write an article on Ezine articles. I came up with the keyword “Hawaii wallpaper” (5,400 searches/month, 23,400 competition on Google) and decided to write my article around that keyword.

Good articles should have a word count between 300 and 600 and have the keyword in the title and approx. 2 – 3 times in the body of the article. That’s exactly how I wrote my article.

It went live on 26 September (3 days ago).

Today my article was No. 13 on page 2 of Googles SERP’s (Search Engine Results Pages)!!!!! How about that!

Which just shows clearly again: proper keyword marketing research pays off!

Keyword Marketing Research – How to pick a winner

One thing that every good internet marketer should have down pat is Keyword Marketing Research. Keywords are the center of all Internet Marketing. They are what people who browse the Internet type into the search box to find information on that topic.

If you do your keyword marketing research right, you can generate a lot of traffic (visitors) for your websites, and we all know the more traffic the more chance of a sale!

What I found out doing my trial and error Internet journey was the following:

If you find keywords or keyword phrases (2+ words) that have more than 500 searches a month, and have less than 200,000 competitive websites on Google, you have got a great keyword and can pretty much count on ranking high on Google’s Search Results pages.

Check with Google’s External keyword tool for the amount of searches your chosen keyword (phrase) gets. If it’s more than 500 that’s great (the more, the better!).

Then head over to Google.com and type in your keyword within quotation marks and hit “search”. On the results page in the top right hand corner you will see how many websites there are competing for this particular keyword. If it’s under 200,000, you have got a winner!

Use these keywords to create squidoo lenses, or do your blog posts (guess which keyword my “keyword” is for this post! – You guessed it: “Keyword Marketing Research”!), or articles and the likes. Over time, they should create a nice and steady flow of visitors to your sites.

Happy keyword hunting!
