Keyword search in Google Adwords
-
Hello all,
I would like to use the Google Adwords Keywords search tool, in order to start working in the structure of my website and targeting the right keywords. I am targeting all the world, all languages, global monthly searaches but:
-
I have the doubt which filte I should use: broad?, exact? or phrase?I am using "braod" but I do not know if I should use exact instead for keyword selection.
-
Would you recommend me any other tool instead of Google Adwords Keywords Search for keyword analysis?
Thank you very much
Antonio

I use broad to get a feel for the type of keywords out there but when it comes to actually selecting keyword targets I use 'phrase' for keyword phrases and 'exact' for singular keywords.
I also cross reference my keyword choices with another keyword research tool (depending on which country changes the tool I use). This might be a useful thing for you to do given that you target the whole world. I'm in New Zealand and at times find the Google Keyword Tool doesn't give specific enough information for monthly search volumes.

Focus on what's best for your customer. Make your title tags readable and don't keyword stuff because that will confuse people when they read your titles.
I use exact match but I try to combine it with other exact match to create something readable or optimize for two keywords at once.
[car shipping] + [instant auto quote] = Car Shipping | Get an Instant Auto Quote for any 2 zip codes.
Try something like that.

From what I understand, Exact match is for determining a keywords worth for the short term traffic for a keyword. Broad match gives an estimation of what is achievable over a longer period of time.
This video from Market Samurai explains this:

I haven't tried Market Samurai yet. I currently just use Adwords keyword tool, then check Keyword difficulty in SEOMoz, but I'd like to streamline my process if possible, so I'll be interested to see what other people recommend.

Does including your site in Google News (and Google) Alerts helps with SEO?
Based on the following article http://homebusiness.about.com/od/yourbusinesswebsite/a/google-alerts.htm in order to check if you are included you need to run site:domain.com and click the news search tab. If you are not there then... I ran the test on MOZ and got no results which surprised me. Next step according to :https://support.google.com/news/publisher/answer/40787?hl=en#ts=3179198 is to submit your site for inclusion. Should I? Will it help? P.S.

Keyword Selection - Long Tail or not long tail keyword
Hi Friends, We have a keyword "plus size clothing" but we used this as "plus size clothing 2012" to Cover the both keywords "Plus size clothing" and "Plus size clothing 2012" My question is, are we still focusing on "plus size clothing" when use "plus size clothing 2012" instead of the main keyword.? What strategy do yo suggest that when to use long tail and when to not. (when I talk to use a long tail than it means use it prominently on the page as main keyword should be used.)

Google Places - How do we rank
So, google places showing up on search results is great feature . . . But how can we get our results to the top? I mean I can see some terrible websites appearing at the top of the google places with their places page having no activity whatsoever. Is there a trick to this at all? What can we do to increase our ranking on Google Places because our old GOOD rankings are now appearing BELOW the map results Cheers
