Keyword Research Services - Read My In Depth Test Of One

March 31, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

If you aren’t a guru then you may (like me) find keyword research difficult. Actually I can find loads of keywords. My problem is finding good keywords.

I always believed that Google’s keyword tool gave highly accurate results. Why wouldn’t I? Big company like that shouldn’t be giving false figures. 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. I discovered the answer almost by pure chance.

I went for a key phrase with around 5,000 pages competing against it. I was pretty sure I could get a good result with that keyword. I started churning out articles by the bucket load.

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.

My point being is that I’d have swerved this keyword if I had seen nine thousand competitors. A lot of these sites were ranking with my article so I had a lot of competition but most of it was my own articles. A win win situation if you ask me.

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. Getting a daily list of quality keywords sent is something that appeals to me. I calculated the cost against the time it would take me and it seemed a value for money concept.

There were a few to choose from but I went with Travis Sago and his Instacash service. Let’s face it, Travis is THE bum marketer. And bum marketing really appeals to me.

One or two good quality keywords delivered each day could save me hours of time. 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.

I get a lot of emails from gurus banging on about outsourcing. 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. I said earlier about how I got loads of articles published for my chosen keyword. I’ll show you how I did that at my site.

Keyword Research Services - Great Idea Or Non Starter?

I struggle with keyword research. Maybe you also do? I can find keywords all day long. The problem is though that most are next to useless, or at least seem to be.

When I used Google’s keyword tool I trusted the results 100%. After all, they should be giving out accurate info. Sadly, that’s not always how it goes.

The keyword data you see will be out of date and wrong. But it will have been spot on at some time. I accidentally discovered the answer to that puzzle.

I was going for a keyword that had roughly five thousand competing pages. I was feeling confident enough to rank well with this one. I started banging articles out left right and centre. Hundreds in fact.

It didn’t take long to notice there were now over 9000 competing sites. I could hardly believe that. Had there been some mistake? As it happens most of these extra results were my articles on these different sites.

My point being is that I’d have swerved this keyword if I had seen nine thousand competitors. As a lot of them were mine (or had my article on) I was competing against my self most of the time. Not a bad situation to be in if you ask me.

I knew I wasn’t going to get lucky all the time so I decided to try a keyword research service. Hopefully I could get some golden keywords delivered to my inbox every day. 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 numero uno in the bum marketing world. Bum marketing only costs my time so it’s my kind of marketing.

It takes me an hour or two to come up with a couple of decent keywords. Getting them delivered is a huge help. Two hours or so to me is quite valuable. If I contrast a couple hours of my time against the cost each day it has to be value.

I get a lot of emails from gurus banging on about outsourcing. I see this as an outsourcing project. Outsourcing my keyword research to someone else.

If you want to hear about my trial of the Instacash service get yourself over to my website. I said earlier about how I got loads of articles published for my chosen keyword. I’ll let you into that little secret on my site.

Keyword Research Services - Instacash Tested To Destruction

Chances are you struggle (like I do) with finding good keywords. I can find keywords all day long. Most of what I find are useless though.

I always believed that Google’s keyword tool gave highly accurate results. Why wouldn’t I? Big company like that shouldn’t be giving false figures. As it happens, they aren’t always accurate.

The results you see are not always correct, far from it. But it probably was at the time they put it together. I discovered the answer almost by pure chance.

I targeted a keyword that ’said’ it had about 5000 competing web pages. I was pretty sure I could get a good result with that keyword. I started banging articles out left right and centre. Hundreds in fact.

It didn’t take long to notice there were now over 9000 competing sites. 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. A lot of these sites were ranking with my article so I had a lot of competition but most of it was my own articles. A good result all round in my opinion.

I decided now to try a keyword research service as I couldn’t keep relying on luck. Getting a daily list of quality keywords sent is something that appeals to me. I had figured that the daily cost against how much work I would save is value for my money.

Travis Sago was offering a service which I decided to try. Travis is the original bum marketer. And I like bum marketing, I like it a lot.

I figure if one good keyword comes each day that should save me an hour or two’s work. An hour or two of my time is highly valuable to me when all I have is time. Put that couples hours saved against the daily cost and it adds up to value.

My email inbox is usually full of stuff going on about how outsourcing is the way forward. And what I’m trying here is simply that. Outsourcing my keyword research to someone else.

If you want to hear about my trial of the Instacash service get yourself over to my website. I mentioned earlier about getting thousands of articles published for a good keyword. I’ll explain how I did that on my site.
