Search Engine Optimization Tools 1 – Keyword Tools
Filed under: SEO Tools by Daniel Taylor on January 7th, 2009 @ 9:31 am
Keyword choice can really help to make or break a Search Engine Optimization campaign. Choosing the right keywords can be difficult because in order to gain the maximum possible SEO benefit, you need to find the balance between popularity, relevance and competition. Choosing a popular industry term may seem like a natural choice as a keyword, but if there are thousands of other websites which have been around longer than yours all competing for that same keyword, the job of moving up the search engine results pages is that much more difficult.
Try looking at some of your competitor’s websites and use a Keyword Density Checker Tool to see what their keywords are and what their density is like. Try searching these keywords using one of the major search engines like Google or Yahoo! and see which websites come out on top. This is a way of indicating which websites you will need to overtake if you choose the same keywords as they have.
Keyword density checkers are not just good for checking out the competition and what they are doing. It has long been recognised that the number of keyword occurrences in a body of text can have an effect on the Search Engine Optimization of a webpage. Although the days of keyword stuffing and high percentage densities are long gone (thankfully), a certain level of density can be a very useful way of letting search engines know exactly what your website is about. The important thing is to make sure that your website content is well-written and user-friendly as well as search engine-friendly. You can have the best keyword density in the world, but it doesn’t matter if your content is poor or irrelevant and website visitors don’t hang around very long.
A fantastic tool for helping you choose the right keywords is an online Keyword Suggestion Tool. The tool works by taking the original keyword or keyword phrase that you suggest and finding variations on it which could help you to find less competitive but equally relevant search terms to target. This tool can help you to take into account alternative spellings of your keywords in different countries, as well as show you the level of competition for various keywords to give you a better idea over which are more appropriate and realistic to target.
Keyword suggestion can be an important Search Engine Optimization tool because it can help to produce a website which has a much greater chance of being unique in amongst your competitors who use similar terminology. As with all SEO tools, using keyword tools are only half the story. The key to making the most of free online Search Engine Optimization Keyword Tools is to evaluate the information they produce properly and apply that knowledge in an appropriate way to your SEO campaign. A good Search Engine Optimization company has the knowledge and experience to develop a comprehensive campaign which can transform your online profile, giving you a great return on investment.
