How To Conduct The BEST, FREE Keyword Research

SEO and traffic Dec 26, 2022

Keyword research is fun. I love it. I can spend hours researching keywords, which is a mistake as it takes away from writing articles. Still, it is fun to do and you may find if you have extra time you can spend a little extra time on this all too critical task.

Don’t waste too much time, but remember while doing it to have fun.

Now remember, if you plan to do keyword research, you better find a good product to promote. This is not hard, start with Clickbank. Just do it. Create a list of at least 5 products you would consider selling because:

They offer good affiliate commissions
The product sells for a decent rate
There are great keywords you can find to write articles about
The competition is not so stiff you will find it hard to make money…

As I said above, the first thing to do is find a good product to promote. The next thing to do is keyword research.

To find keywords, I go to:

https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

When I visit this page I type in my main keyword. Doing so provides me a list of over 200 OTHER keywords related to the keyword I just typed in.

All of this is free. I can now write 200 more articles using the additional keywords I just found. Remember, keywords change from month to month, so it pays to keep on top of things and recheck occasionally. Remember, the tools I provide you with in this guide are FREE.

I'm not a fan of spending money on tools that are not needed and keyword research tools can be expensive. Besides, the whole point is to become a bum marketer right? And who wants to pay a lot of money to be a bum? Certainly not anyone with a bit of common sense.

For every product you find that you want to promote, you should write 30 articles. You should be able to get 30 articles out a day.

So in 5 days, a working week, you would have 150 articles written and have 5 Clickbank.com products promoted and saturated. Not bad, and remember, you only have to work a few hours each day. So, theoretically, if you do your homework, you can soon start making almost full-time income working part-time hours being a bum.

Do Search Count And Competition Really Matter?

Search count and competition are important considerations when creating your business. There are many people that will encourage you to look for keyword terms that people search for frequently but those that also have little competition.

This means finding a keyword with a high volume of searches but few products listed or competitive marketers promoting the same product. I am not the type of person that relies or worries too heavily about volume or competition.

A true bum marketer is someone that writes as many articles as possible on all key search terms and great products to saturate the market. That said, when starting out, if you want to encourage yourself or make a good impression, you may find it easier to start out by selecting good products with little competition.

After all, the more competition you have the harder a time you will have attracting people’s attention. However, once you become more experienced at writing articles and selecting products, the chances are high competition and search volume will become much less of an issue to you.

Me?

I'm not overly fussed on the search count. If a keyword or search term gets under 500 searches a month but is highly targeted to the product I want to promote, I will still write an article for that term.

That goes the same for keywords with more then 10,000 competing pages in Google.

If the term is really good, I will write articles for keywords with more then 10,000+ competing pages in Google, especially if it has a good amount of searches per month.

I am a firm believer that there are plenty of people available with a never-ending supply of income, so no amount of competition is too much competition, as long as you are putting out articles consistently.

But, try it both ways and see what works best for you. Remember each person is different, so you may find you prefer working one way versus another. You can even write an article or two on this subject, since it is such a highly debated topic within the industry.

Now that you know even more about keyword articles and search terms, it’s time for you to get to the real meat of the issue. It’s time to talk about “little-known-secrets” of the industry few if any people will tell you.

In the next section, I am going to reveal information you will not find elsewhere. Use this information wisely and you may find you expand your financial portfolio tenfold all while dominating your market as a bum marketer.
