      I've been tasked with finding the keywords for our website.  The difficulty I'm finding is receiving help from the fabrication personal to suggest keywords.  I'm not sure if its peoples imagination or if there's a general unwillingness.

      Can anyone make any suggestions here?  Is there a fabrication or welding keyword database I can put to them and hopefully get their brains working?

      Or even a way to see what keywords our competitors use?

          Hi Martin, Thanks for the further explanation of your business model. You are right - Local SEO is not the right match for you, so the tool isn't helpful.

            Thanks for the reply 🙂

            I'm not sure Google places would help our business and correct me if I'm wrong.  We're not a company that people visit for sales.  We're onsite fabrication and we also manufacture products to sell all over the UK and occasionally abroad.  How would it help us?

              By entering the URL of a website in the Website box in Google keywords tool, you are instructing Google to go and get the keywords hints from the URL to come up with the list of related keywords and phrases. So as Wikipedia pages cover any topic comprehensively, there is a good chance that the keyword list prepared this way will give you a solid head start for your current job at hand.

              Best regards,

                  You've received some very good replies here from members. I'll just add that if you are branching into competitive analysis of local competitors, you might like to check out 51 Blocks' competitive analysis tool, which is free:

                    Go to a list broker company like www.infousa.com, they have a nice classification of industries as a part of the list selection process and you can find sub categories related to your industry type. That's another way of finding closely related keywords.

                    Here is the Link.

                      Hi Martin, you can do one thing. Just go to Google AdWords keywords tool and make sure you are logged in to your Google account.

                      Once inside the tool, set the settings to All Locations and All Languages, type the following in the Website box: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding

                      Hit Search. Export all the keywords and repeat the process for the following URL typed in the Website box:

                      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_fabrication

                      Try to look for other related topic on Wikipedia and repeat the process till you have good list.

                      Hope this helps.

                      Regards,

                        Unfortunately Amazon is a product company and we are in a service industry so couldnt get any names from them.  I see your point about being creative, I've through about searching job boards for descriptions such as http://www.totaljobs.com/JobSeeking/Fabrication.html

                        Can you think of anything else that may help?

                          Thanks the Google Keywords is useful.  I've also visited SEMRush typed in a list of our competitors and not very information out of it.  It might be because our competitors are not very active on-line.

                          The SEMoz keyword analyser isn't working at the moment so we cant check that out.

                          Our other big problem is that we work in a lot of different industries such as energy, power stations, Nuclear, transportation ect. How can we get a list of industries for metal fabrications?

                              Hi Martin, you can take the steps outlined by SEO5 and also you can visit Amazon.com, search for the keywords, 'welding' and 'fabrication', take a note of the items that come up in the search, visit the product page of each of these products and also note the itemsthat Amazon mentions under the heading, 'people who bought also bought'. Put all these terms in Google AdWords keywords tool and bingo, you will have a very good list of related terms. Put your brain in to this a bit deep and add your creativity to further enhance the list. Sometimes, the shopping sites and specialized online portals for a particular product or niche can give you more than you can ever imagine while doing keyword research analysis and I do it all the time and the results will be outstanding as per my experience. Good luck.

                              Regards,

                              Devanur.

                                Ask to speak with the receptionist or the person who takes most of the incoming calls for the business.  This person hears the language used by people who ask for their services.  These people often know more about the keywords to target than management.

                                  You can use Google's keyword suggestion tool , type in fabrication and welding in the keyword list and the website , check the box that says "only show ideas closely related to my search terms" . You should be able to pull a good keyword list using this tool.

                                  In addition to this tool you can also use SEM Rush , type in the client's website and see what keywords they are ranking for that are related to your site. You can also use the keyword analysis tool from SEOMOZ.

                                    How granular should I get with Keyword research?

                                    I'm doing KW research for a new business. My understanding from KW research guides: Use tools to create a list of thousands of keywords Analyze difficulty and search volume Reduce your list and do on page optimization for your select KWs My dilemma with this approach is that it seems "keyword based" rather than "intent" or "category" based. e.g. Let's say I have a grocery store. Ignoring SEO, I know that these are my main categories: Produce Meat Dairy Canned Goods Baked Goods In other words, the above categories are the general "intents" and "categories" that I'd really want to rank for. Keyword tool shows that they have high volume and high difficulty. Let's say that after doing keyword research, I discover "Low Fat Chicken Breasts" and "Turkey Sausage" and "Cheap Meat Wholesale" have decent search volume and low competition. I don't quite understand how I'm supposed to utilize these fringe keywords in my on page SEO plan because it doesn't make sense as a human to categorize my site that way. Not sure if this is clear. Basically I'm trying to figure out if I should really be getting this granular on keywords to help guide my store categories or if I should just be picking broader terms.

                                    Keyword Themes - What's in a theme?

                                    I recently read the Moz guide for  "How To Rank - 25 Step SEO Master Blue Print" and had a question on keyword themes. What is considered a theme? Is there a recommended number of keywords in a theme? For example, if my site is for listing and selling cars, would the following terms fit within the same "car" theme or should the terms be broken out by "cars general" / "car locations" / "car types"?

                                    Is my SEO company a scam?

                                    Hello, I am rather new to online marketing and because of this employ an SEO company to help with improving my ranking. They have now been working with me for around 6 months and I have not seen an increase in the traffic to my site - in fact it is at it all time low. Yesterday I only had 4 visitors for example. They keep ensuring me it will take time, and show me reports on how my keywords are ranking, and some appear to be doing okay, but I would have thought traffic would have improved by now. Why I am a little suspicious of this company is they only seem to be doing back linking. They have done very little, if anything, with on-page optimisation, so much so that I tried to do this all myself following Moz guidelines etc. But even this has seen very little improvement. I would have thought that as a paid SEO company, they may see that something is clearly not working. Perhaps the wrong keywords? Suggest a different tactic? I write blogs posts, am social media active but feeling very discourage with it all as seeing very little results. I continuously hear about scams and get new emails every day saying "we have analysed your site and all these things are wrong... pay us $XXX and we will get you traffic" but who can you trust and how can you find an affordable way to gain traffic as a very small business. Would be great to get feedback from anyone who may know what is going on. Thanks Astrid

                                    Bulk keyword competition tool?

                                    The SEOmoz Keyword Difficulty tool is great, but the 5 keyword limit is too small. I need a tool that will allow checking the organic competition level of 100's of keywords (to help in selecting blog topics). Anyone know of such a tool?
