Assisting Affiliates –Keyword Search Tools

Keyword search tools are the tools of the trade for any affiliate marketer. Just as a carpenter has several hammers in their tool box so should an affiliate marketer have several keyword tools in their armament arsenal.

The product of the internet is two things:

Firstly, it is all about words. To be more precise, which words and in which order people ask for information about them and we call these keywords or keyword phrases.

Secondly, the internet is about numbers. These two things are the ying and yang that makes the Internet come together. The 'secret' for want of a better word, is how these numbers are interpreted by the keyword researcher that makes the difference between a successful internet marketer or someone still trying to figure out the magical mathematical equation.

To date, I have not gained Merlin status but I'm happy to share with you what hasn't worked for me yet so if this is useful to you to know then we are a good fit for each other.

That is why so many keyword finding products or any Internet marketing products for that matter will usually do pretty well in sales if it has the word 'secret' in there somewhere. This 'secret' word would have to be the biggest selling product on the internet this decade.

Every keyword research tool uses a different mathematical equation. No one knows the algorithm Google uses because that is one of the best kept secrets in the world today, so all the software programmers are putting together these keyword finding tools based on educated guesses.

So no matter which Keyword search tools you decide to use or how many you decide to use, everything has to be checked and verified against Google's own estimated traffic search tool. Google's own tool is the yardstick by which every keyword finding tool is measured
