HI Everybody! I came across something not too long ago that I think many of you would find helpful. For some time, I've struggled with making sense of doing keyword research the right way. That's where Keyword Research Train comes in.
Keyword Research Train has helped to solve one of the hardest elements I have had to overcome in performing keyword research, as an online marketer.
After all this time, I still to this day never feel really comfortable in my keyword research skills. As such, I have sought keyword research tools to do much of the job for me.
This stems from second guessing myself. If I had to bet, I'd bet that you've been there yourself!
For years, I have searched for a proven method that was laid out, step-by-step that others were not willing to reveal. It always seemed to me that those that had been at this game for a long time, didn't want these methods known.
After all, if we all knew great keyword strategies to find the right niches, then there would be more competition to deal with.
Keyword Research Train is a 62 page PDF
(along with Bonuses, Examples, Mind Map, and a Read Me First file)
that is quick to download, but not so quick to read.
It is not that
the information is difficult to read, but rather the guide gives you
lots to think about as you go through it.
This product is the
definitive guide to keyword research that EVERYONE needs to get on a
first name basis with it.
Without a doubt, keyword research is
the most critical aspect to nailing the right niche market and
being able to compete, and that is what this product is all about.
Keyword research is a topic that is the gatekeeper to success. You
cannot reach the level of success you are looking for, if you don't
know or follow proper keyword research methods that work.
The methods provided in KeywordResearch Train are ones that I have known for a long time. Some,
I might add, are the most important ones, yet for whatever reason, I
had pushed these concepts aside and forgotten how to perform them.
Over time, I regretted not having written them down.
I guess that is the hazards of using
software as a replacement the manual techniques.
I have wondered over
time how I did certain things and this product brought it all back
into focus for me. It came at a time that is really valuable for
most people, I think.
The realization for me kicked in when I
realized that it is much better to depend on your brain, rather than
to depend on the scraps that Google dishes up these days!
As marketers, we are always seeking the
pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, and as beginners or those less
experienced, keyword research can really wreak havoc on our efforts
to succeed.
Tibor Szalay (a.k.a. Tiiberiuss as he is known on the
Warrior Forum) has anticipated our needs from every aspect-namely,
the absolute beginner to the more experienced marketer.
Tibor begins with the most simple of
concepts,asking the age old question: What is a Keyword?
Where to begin keyword research?
Ok, to those who have been around the
block a time or two, you're thinking “Big deal, so what!,” but
to beginners just starting out, well, they may need that introduction,
so bear with me here.
Then, he discusses the importance of a
profitable mindset that we need to have when considering the right
keywords for us.
Next, Tibor discusses why old methods
of “keyword stuffing” should not be a part of your game plan and
how to better focus your efforts to help in diversifying your
link-building efforts!
As most all marketer's do or teach,
they begin their research by starting out with GAKT (Google's Adword
Keyword Tool).
As a total beginner having no account or experience
with GAKT, Tibor has provided you with a link to an online resource
that provides you with just the right information to provide
everything you need to sign up for your own Adwords account.
As you can see, you have NO excuses not
to set up your own account and begin your keyword research.
Keep in
mind, that you can use this tool without an Adwords account, but you will be
limited in the number of keywords that Google will serve up.
With an Adwords account, you'll get up to 8 times that amount! So, do yourself a favor and just sign up! Or at least you are suppose to, but I have found that Google's Keyword Tool
When utilizing GAKT, it's nice to
export the results of your efforts and keep them organized. If you
are like me and don't have or wish to invest in Microsoft Office,
there is a perfectly acceptable solution, which I have used myself for
years.
You might like it as well. The clickable link to this
alternative is listed for your easy access to the software. Can't
get any easier than that.
Recently, I have heard of one that is
even better, but I haven't tried it out yet. As soon as I do so, I
will let you know my thoughts on that alternative as well.
As with any train ride, there are many
stops along the way to doing keyword research right, until you get to your destination. With keyword
research, it is no exception.
Keyword Research Train - STOP 1:
Keyword Research Train's first STOP
(Pg. 9) begins with SEEDS!
“Seeds?”, you ask. What do seeds
have to do with keyword research?
Well, as you might guess, many
things starts from seeds. Think about it. Seeds of life, from the
vegetables we eat to the seeds of great ideas and inspiration, to
keywords seeds.
Keywords seeds...want to know what they
are and if the terms or words you've discovered are related... find
out how by reading the guide. Learn the search query to help
you further.
Ohhhh! Lookie here! Something was
just brought to my attention that I never knew existed. How could I
have overlooked or discarded this and overlooked it's potential to help uncover hidden treasures?
I've used this tool many times, and yet, this is the first time I've
really paid attention to this resource/tool as a way of finding
ideas.
(Pg. 12-13) In addition to this
discovery, there are 3 main sources that Tibor uses to find his seed
keywords. The third of which I never knew existed.
I tried
several different random words to see how many seeds it would
generate and each time it came back with 100 results. Without
question, I'll be using that site again.
I will end this part of the review by saying that Keyword Research Train by Tibor gives you progress checks along the way. You will find what Tibor teaches you in this guide proves he knows his stuff, and is a great teacher. Take it slowly. Soak it all in, and don't let yourself get overwhelmed.

Until next time...
