Keyword confusion
I'm at the keyword hunting stage of the training programme, and my head is spinning.
Back in prehistoric times, 1986 to be exact, I did a postgraduate diploma course in library and information studies.Then, it was all about trying to harmonise keywords into standard ones used by everyone. We talked about terminologies and thesauri and the need to use terms from these in web page meta-tags. We learned to search using Boolean operators so as to ensure we had tight search parameters.
The librarians have obviously lost the battle.
Now its's all about finding terms no one else is using, and throwing random woolly phrases into the search engines.
I've spent at least 12 hours on this so far, and still haven't come up with the 15 keywords I need to find.
I don't want to take anything away from the tools within WA as I have not used them and I couldn't say how good they are, but what I have been using a fair bit is Market Samurai which I find to be an unbelievable tool.
Of course, it may not be what you are after but the information about the competion for the keywords etc is the best I have seen so far and the training videos and pdf's on how to do specific searches is outstanding.
Might be worth a look if you haven't tried it.
I'm only a message away if you need any assistance.
Good luck.
P.S. I read your other post and I am sorry and hope you get through this sad time quickly and strongly.
