Are you double checking your keyword research with Google?

Welcome to another white hot version of The Keyword Informer.

The title of this article begs the reader to ask whether they are double checking to see if there are any missing keyword phrases that may be heavily searched on Google against other keyword sources (databases) currently available.

This is one of the major reasons that NicheBOT provides multiple keyword databases so that our members are making sure not to miss any obvious wholes in their keyword research with keyword phrases that can bring in extra traffic.

My motto is… “Grab all the website traffic that you can!” So…

If you’re not double checking with Google, then you may be missing out on some crucial key terms for your site content or the keyword phrases used in the links pointing into your site.

Given the size of Google’s keyword database, you should even double check the data you acquire from other keyword sources to verify a keyword’s true popularity. We’ve already discussed that most database sources are so minute and microscopic, they only amount to 1%-2% at best of the overall data available.

With the exponential power of what I’m about to show you — Google’s keyword engine is fast becoming my new long tail keyword generator of choice (as well as other keyword professionals that I’ve spoken to).

There’s an incredibly radical shift that has already begun to take place.

It’s no longer coming down to looking at search count since most databases are so minute and their Predicted Daily search counts are just that… a prediction. Besides, more and more professionals (like myself) are beginning to ignore KEI (Keyword Effectiveness Index) as a measure of a keyword’s true competitive nature.

So more focus is being placed on the quality of the keywords and taking the extra time to double check Google’s superior keyword engine.

Who doesn’t want to gather keyword phrases from the largest search engine on the planet?!

It’s a fact that 1 out of every 2 people on the planet contribute to building the world’s largest keyword database known as Google.

In the recent data released by Comscore.com, Google’s search volume in the U.S. is an astounding 58.4% of all searches being done.

And there’s a pretty good chance with you reading this that you in fact use Google.com to search for quick reference, solutions and answers — right?

With arguably a database 50-60 times larger than any other keyword database, you would be literally ignorant to not double check your keyword research with Google’s keyword engine.

If you’re not a NicheBOT subscriber, then you can easily access Google’s keyword engine for free through the Google External Keyword Tool. It’s great for doing quick spot checks.

But here’s the problem with the word free:

1. You have to enter a captcha every time you do a search

2. You only get 200 results per search

3. You must download the CSV and work with a spreadsheet — and if you are unfamiliar with how to effectively use Microsoft Excel or its equivalent, it can be frustrating.

With NicheBOT’s powerful processing, gathering keywords is elevated to a whole new level with Google’s keyword engine. There is no such thing as having to enter a captcha and you can now gather up to 15,000 keywords from one single root keyword phrase in 41 languages and 243 countries with the Google Keyword Cruncher.

The power to create Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) keyword lists across 243 different countries in 41 languages has also been added to our 1-Click LSI keywords tool:

From one simple keyword entered, you can easily extract highly relevant long tail keywords that show real promise directly on Google.com. No other keyword database can offer a glimpse into what is happening on Google.com. No one!

With one click of the mouse on the sortable columns in NicheBOT, you can easily bring all the high traffic terms right to the top. Click the sortable title column again and bring all the low traffic terms up top that are easy to rank for:

Without sounding like too much of an advocate of the tool I founded, NicheBOT’s powerful Instant Keyword Filtering, you can get rid of the keywords you don’t want to see in a few clicks. Try doing that on the free Google tool…

I’m sure you would agree that manually entering 75 different searches digging down into one keyword using Google’s external tool would take you the better part of one day let alone a great deal of time to combine all the different CSV’s you would need to download from the Google interface.

The above is done by NicheBOT within two clicks and processed within the space of about 10 minutes and your keyword list is combined and conveniently de-duplicated ready for use.

One more click of the red “Google Trends” link to the right of each keyword will give you a quick indication of the trend that keyword phrase is taking on Google so you can immediately identify its current upward and downward trend. Spotting the seasonal trends will be effortless as well.

And given the enormity of Google’s database, NicheBOT’s WordTrend keyword tool will soon be powered by Google — replacing Keyword Discovery as the source since they no longer use actual search engine data to power their monthly charts.

In fact, the new WordTrend Comparison tool powered by Google will be free to all NicheBOT subscribers. It will allow any user to compare up to 5 different keywords at one time in a chart like so:

As you can see by the chart above, you can see that the “ruby” is well outperforming “diamonds” and the “emerald” while the “sapphire” and “pearls” are struggling at the bottom of the heap.

By comparing two (and up to five) different keywords at a time on the world’s largest search engine, you will get a glimpse at what is really going on with at least 50% of the global population, rather than just a fractional 1%.

You can continue to wonder whether a predicted daily number, tallied by using a formula, will actually come through for you, or you can use the Google tools to give you at least a picture of what half the world may be doing as it relates to your niche market or main keyword phrase.

Sure, Google only gives you an indicator bar for the search volume instead of an actual figure because they keep their search counts proprietary. But if one keyword database indicates that a keyword phrase is the most popular in the market when Google indicates that the traffic is rather low and you pour all your efforts into that keyword phrase, you may wind up being sorely disappointed.

Why take a chance?

I would personally choose to take a couple of minutes by double-checking keywords gathered from smaller sources against a much bigger source and find any gaps that may be missing.

It only makes common sense.

Here’s to your future keyword success!

Best wishes for success,
