Key word SEO – Choosing Keywords For Best SEO Strategies

by Kathryn Griffiths

How do you choose keywords for the best SEO strategies?  Actually the the process is quite simple… and I’m going share with you some secrets on how you can select good keywords that will bring more seo traffic to your web pages.

I’m going make some suggestions on how you can find the best keywords for your title and for your text.  For my examples, I’m going avoid the “online marketing niche” go into a smaller niche.

SEO Keyword tool

There are several good seo Keyword tools available.  Some are free and some you will have to pay for.  I’ve used both and found that Google Keyword External is very good and it’s free.  Make sure it’s “External.”

Using The Tool

Log in and put your main key word into your search box.  An entire list of relevant key words or keyword suggestions will show up below your selection. (I like to search by relevance.)

This Is What I Found For My Subject, Dill Pickles:

1.  Main key word:  Dill Pickles         Searches:  60,500

I looked through all the keywords that were listed and I wrote down the ones that fit my subject the best.

2.  Here’s the trick.  I always search for keywords that don’t have extremely high searches.  I search from the middle to the low range for my “Title Keyword.”

Why would I want to compete with 60,000 others for the main keyword.

Here Is My Selection That Fits My Post The Best

Dill Pickles                 60,500
Sour Pickles                  9,000
Canning Dill Pickles            3,600
Dill Pickle Canning            1,900
Genuine Dill Pickles             1000
Dill Pickle Canning Recipe        720
Cucumber Dill Pickles        390

The relevant key words to my main keyword were not listed in this order… there were many keyword suggestions in between.  But, these fit my post the best.

Guess which one I chose for my title?

Then I used all of the other relevant keywords in my text including Dill Pickles…. which has the most competition.

Another secret is… don’t over use one key word in your text.  Google and Ezine frown upon it.

In fact… Ezine will turn down your article if they think you have packed your article with one main keyword just for seo ranking.  It doesn’t sound natural.  They want relevant key words to be included in your text along with your main keyword.  So does Google.

Now, if you want to see how this all worked out… go see what I did with my keywords in a Dill Pickle Canning post.  I used every one of my selected keywords in this short post.

How did I do?

P.S.  Go for it… Do your keywords search before you write every post.  And, make sure you use relevant keywords for best seo strategies.

P.P.S.  “Online Money Making” has high searches and high competition.  You’ll have to be very selective in the keywords you choose.
