Now onto some of the more “secret” tools that none of the “gurus” want you to know about.  Keywords are easy to come by but how do you know if they are profitable? These advanced tools will help you scope out your competition and find the best words.

1. Wordtracker – Wordtracker has one of the coolest keyword tools.  You can type in your broad niche, like “carpet cleaning” or “real estate” and it will tell you how many times a day the word gets searched.  Although the free version leaves out some vital information it does allow you to click on your niche word and discover even more words. Carpet Cleaning for example yielded Carpet Cleaning Companies which yielded “atlanta georgia carpet cleaning companies” which gets searched almost 50 times a day!  When you look at the numbers, simply multiply them by 30 to get the “google” average, in this case,”atlanta georgia carpet cleaning companies” gets 1,500 searches a month. Not too bad.
2. SpyFu – SpyFu is a tool that if I showed this too you first, you wouldn’t go anywhere else.  The information is overwhelming.  Watch the video to get a good understanding but it shows you what your competitors are doing, what related keywords (niche’s), what the results are, even the directories.  It’s actually very complete but again it’s a ton of information.
3. SEMRush – SEMRush offers a more streamlined view of the niche.’ Related phrase, organic results, adwords and more.  Again, if you are looking for a niche finder, this is one of the better ones.  Spyfu is more complete from a strategic marketing standpoint.
4. Wordstream – Wordstream Keyword Niche Finder is by far my favorite since it does exactly what we are talking about. You enter your niche and find all kinds of words that are being searched, simply click on the bucket to reveal more words.
