Once you are aware of importance of keywords in SEO, you will surely include keywords in your articles, but which kind of keywords will be good for your search engine ranking? For finding answer to this question you need to go research the keywords which are highly attainable, preferred phrases and which can drive target visitors to your blog.
Using Hit and Trial method is tiresome and waste lot of time. There are lots of keyword research tool available which can provide you the list of synonyms or keywords which are searched highly on search engines. You just need to enter the proposed keywords and the captcha and all highly searched keywords will be just a click away.
Here are list of some useful keyword research tools:
1. Google AdWords Keyword Tool: I like it most. It can search keywords in approx. 50 languages with systematic database and estimated search volume and advertiser competition. You can have option to analysis according to exact / broad/ negative / phrase search. So, you can get the results according to what you are searching.
2. WordTracker: This is another tool for keyword research but you can only find 100 results for free .If you want to see all the keywords , you need to pay for it. But, I guess 100 Keywords are more than enough for bloggers. It gives you the number of search results in free trial and if you go ahead with paid version then you can get detailed information about competitiveness of each phrase.
3. Trellian Keyword Discovery Tool: This is available both in paid and free trial tool. In Free trial it gives the number of search of the keyword and the paid tool gives you information about the market share value of keywords, number of search, spellings and misspellings. I like one feature of Trellian keyword discovery tool that it collects search data from all major engines to provide better results.
There are many more but I found the above one useful. Beginners must remember that before paying to keyword research tool, you must read all the features, reviews about utility of Keyword Research tool.
