keyword Analysis

1.Keywords for Search engine optimization :
Keyword is nothing but “on what we are searching for”.

Ex: - India temples, job opportunities, web development, Telugu movies, it solution, software training.

Key word should be “well define” and It must be a meaningful

Key Phrase: -Combination of 2 key words

Keywords are considered the most important in Search engine optimization. So it is necessary to see that the right keyword is optimized for your website. Choosing keywords seems easy at first but when you get into more detail, it might be a bit confusing to correctly determine the right keywords. But with a careful keyword research and thinking the problem of selecting the right keywords to optimize for a particular website can be solved.

Keywords are what search strings are matched against. when you start optimization, the first thing you need to consider is the keywords that describe the content of your web site best and that are most likely to be used by users to find you.

Choosing the right keyword is the first and crucial step to be successful in seo process, Before choosing keywords we need to see:

What the online population is searching for?

What are the keywords our competitors chosen?

What are the keywords that describe our website best?

If we fail in choosing the right keyword we will waste ours or our client’s money and time. after we have made a long and detailed list of all the important keywords that are searched by tens or thousands a day and If you have many competitors for that particular keywords we have chosen, chances are that it will be difficulty to overtake them and place our website among top ten results,

If we are not placed in the first page or on the second page or in the worst case on the third page of the organic search results, we will have very few visitors to visit our website. It is true that sometimes even web sites that are after the first 50 results get decent traffic from search engines but it is certain that you can't count on that.

We should not get discouraged if all lucrative keywords are already occupied; Low-volume search keywords can also be as lucrative as the high-volume ones and their main advantage is that you will have less competition with these keywords.

Some of the SEO experts confirm that with low volume search keywords it is possible with less effort and with in less budget we can achieve much better results than targeting for high-volume search keywords.

Before selecting a low volume or high volume search keyword we need to make an estimate about how difficult it would be to rank well for a particular keyword.


2.Choosing the Right Keywords to Optimize for search engines :
It is impossible to achieve constant top ratings for a one-word search string as the Web is densely populated with web sites; It will be a realistic goal when we achieve constant top ratings for two-word or three-word search strings.

we can include one-word strings in our keywords list but if they are not backed up by more expressions, it is waste of dreaming for high ratings.

For Example if we have a website about temples, “temple” is a mandatory keyword but we will be not successful if we do not optimize for more words, like “temples in India”, “temple visiting times, “temple gods”.

we need to think broad when choosing the keywords, When we start optimization (seo), the first thing we need to consider is the keywords that describe the content of the web site best and likely to be used by users to find the website or service provided by the website. We should understand our users well and guess correctly what search strings they are likely to use to search our website. Synonyms can be taken into consideration.

For Example, in a dog site, “canine” is a synonym and it is for sure the users will use it, so it does not hurt to use it as a keyword in the content of the web pages.

But search engines have algorithms that include synonyms in the keyword match, especially in languages like English so do not rush to optimize for every synonym.

3.Website Keyword Suggestions Tools :
can help you to see how search engines determine the theme of a web site and what keywords fit into this theme. We can try Google’s Keyword Tool to get more suggestions about which keywords are hot to use.

Before choosing particular keyword or keywords or key phrase to optimize for Google or any search engine, we need to see relevancy of keyword to our web site and the expected monthly number of searches for this particular keyword or keywords or key phrase.

Some times narrow searches are more valuable because the users that come to our site are those that are really interested in our service or product. If we go on with the temples example, we might discover that the “festivals in India” key phrase also brings us more visitors because we have a special section on our web site where we give information or list of festivals in Andhra Pradesh. This page is not of interest for current visitors for temples but potentially attracting this niche can be better than attracting everybody who is interested in temples in general. So when we look at the number of search hits per month consider the unique hits that fit the theme of the website.

4.Effective Keyword Choice Strategy and Useful Tools :

The search engines will know the Web site theme while "crawling" the site pages; this is where the keyword power needs to be utilized. One correctly targeted keyword will produce a better overall search engine ranking than keywords just generally placed. The presence of that keyword placed strategically across the site is a factor in determining whether or not the web site is ranked high in a search on sites like GOOGLE, YAHOO and MSN. Many users will type broader search criteria into the search engines if they are uncertain of exactly what they seek. We should try to establish what keywords are most used in the context of the web site content and theme. Choosing keywords depend on the target audience's needs, and what keywords they will use to locate sites.

Keywords will be relevant words and parts of phrases that relate to the site content.

So what kinds of keywords should we use?

For example: if you have a site that focuses on mobile phones, When any person is not aware of model and service provider and if he is searching for information like what are the best mobile deals available at present?

Some keywords might be "mobile, mobile phone, phone tariffs, cellular," etc. If the user wants to find mobile phone sites that host budget phones, he or she may type the keywords mentioned above.

If it is a movie information site, keywords could be "movies, film, movie, films, horror movies, Horror, sci-fi, action, cinema"

This positioning and choice of keywords is crucial for a site towards SEO optimization.
5.Seeing in Overture which of the keywords that are related to our web site had most searches recently and optimize for those keywords is wrong because the fact that a particular keyword is often searched does not mean that this alone makes it a worthy target. If the competition for this highly desired keyword is tough, your efforts might be useless,
