Are you like me and struggle with keyword research? Actually, it’s not a problem finding them. My problem is finding good keywords.
I always believed that Google’s keyword tool gave highly accurate results. I mean, they wouldn’t be telling fibs about their data, would they? Well, that’s not always the case.
What you see (the data) is not what you get. But it probably was at the time they put it together. The answer to this particular enigma came to me almost accidentally.
I was going for a keyword that had roughly five thousand competing pages. I felt I could do well with that one. I put out probably thousands of articles.
Pretty soon I noticed over 9000 competitors. I could hardly believe that. Had there been some mistake? I was relieved to see that an awful lot of these competitors were showing my articles.
The point I’m trying to get across is that had I looked at the keyword with 9000 competitors, I would have left it alone. As a lot of them were mine (or had my article on) I was competing against my self most of the time. A great result in the end for that key phrase.
I got lucky on that keyword but I suspected I may not get lucky again so I made the decision to try out a keyword research service. I was looking to get some decent keywords delivered on a daily basis. I calculated the cost of these services and concluded that they were value for money.
Of the keyword research services on offer I opted to try Travis Sago’s Instacash. Travis being at the top of the bum marketing pile. Bum marketing is something I really like.
If I can get a keyword or two in my in box each day then that saves me valuable time. At least a two hour saving. An hour or two of my time is highly valuable to me when all I have is time. If I put the time saved up against the daily cost it shows clearly there’s value to be had.
Outsourcing, outsourcing, outsourcing. Seems to be all you hear from the gurus of internet marketing. I reckon there’s not much difference here. I’m giving my keyword research to someone else to do. That’s outsourcing.
Do you wanna know how it went with the Instacash service? Get on over to my website and I’ll tell you. Earlier I mentioned that I ended up with thousands of articles on websites for a certain keyword. I’ll let you into that little secret on my site.
