Google Keyword Tool Updated with Search Volume Numbers
July 11, 2008 | Written by annliu | Filed Under Alert & Opinion & News
There are something big happened in the Internet marketing world this morning and you need to know about it, it is a new change in google adwords, before I am telling you the news, here is a quick update that Google Nemesis is going up in price in less than 48 hours …
Okay, here’s the adwords change - Google just did affiliate marketers a HUGE favor! It’s one that they once claimed they would never do, but now it’s done.
Here’s the summary…
If you’ve ever used Google Adwords you know already they always represented search volume for a keyword by a rating out of 1-5.
This morning they scrapped that, and started showing ACTUAL SEARCH VOLUME for keywords, instead of using just showing you those “green bars”, which only gave you an idea of relative search volume, now you get to see search numbers based on Google’s database.
Wordtracker keyword volumes have always been accused of being wildly inaccurate because they make predictions from only 2-3% of actual search activity. So now that Google has made a change, more accurate search volume is finally available.
You can go to Google’s External Keyword Tool to try out, enter a keyword and you’ll see Google’s estimate of actual search volume.
Their keyword tool has jumped way ahead of any other free tool, and that may even mean you can do without a paid tool if all you do is very basic keyword research.
This is great news for us Internet marketers because now you can be absolutely sure of the size of a niche when you do your keyword search, there’s no more need to make wild guesses about search volume.
According to the Google Blog post,
“Now, when you use the Keyword Tool to search for relevant keywords to include in your keyword list, you’ll be able to see the approximate number of search queries matching your keywords that were performed on Google and the search network.”
