How To Use Google To Do The Best Keyword Research For Free

by Dave Joa

Google has quietly released a new version of the external Adwords Keyword Tool to display the number of times a keyword is searched for, when you use it for keyword research. By now showing us Search Volumes for keyword phrases searched for their extremely popular search engine Google gives us a much more accurate idea, for the first time ever, of how often a keyword is used and this is very important news.

If you are an internet or affiliate marketer you will know that the tradition tools used for keyword research, like Wordze, Keyword Discovery, Keyword Elite and Wordtracker have always been thought of as inaccurate when providing estimated search volumes. They can only collect a very small fraction of the data that Google has access to. The Google keyword database must be massive when you compare it to those of the tools above.

Up until now all the keyword research tool services available have just tried to estimate search volumes from the little data that they have, but at best these were only really best guesses and probably have never been very accurate. With no other tools showing anything any more accurate they are what have been used for years.

With the new release of the updated version of the Adwords external keyword tool Google has changed the game, because the search volumes it displays are are taken from real keyword phrase search entered by real people into the Google search engine. Thus from now on Google can give you everything you want for keyword research and there will be no need to use the paid for keyword services any more.

What is more Google provides all this keyword data for free! Although designed originally for use just with Adwords by affiliate marketer this external keyword tool, as it is known, is available for anyone to use totally free. Once you know the link or URL you can just go straight to the tool and use it whenever you want.

Many top internet marketers in the industry are claiming this as the biggest thing that has happened to internet marketing for a very long time. For once it seems that Google is giving something back. Of course there are also many cynics out there who question why Google has done this and there are others who question the accuracy of the search data Google has revealed. Early checks have shown that in may cases the data is fairly accurate, but only time will tell as more analysis on these new results is completed.

The other fact that is important to remember is that there is also a free version of this for each geographic country location, such as the UK or Australia, so keyword search volumes are now also available for country specific keyword research. So for UK keyword research, the Google external Adwords keyword tool is now the best keyword research software currently available.

This is extremely useful as the paid keyword research tools are not good at providing this localized information and remember again that it is free!
