Does anyone know of a good keyword identification tool to be used on a particular piece of content?
-
I'm hoping for a tool that would extract keyword possibilities from an article, run them through a keyword popularity tool such as Google AdWords Keyword Planner and present ranked results (including number of monthly searches) to the writer. That would enable the writer to choose relevant popular keywords (especially phrases) in the web headline, page title and text.
Does anyone know of such a tool? I'm considering having one built in-house if nothing already exists.
How it might work
Ideally, this might be a browser add-on. The user would highlight the story or blog text, and click on the browser add-on button to start the tool.
Using something like viewer.opencalais, the text would plug into a keyword extraction tool and automatically run the results.
In the next step the extracted terms would automatically plug into the Google AdWords Keyword Planner and run the results for “Keyword Ideas.” I think this can be done via the AdWords API: https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201402/TrafficEstimatorService?hl=fr
The user would then be presented with a series of ranked keyword possibilities based on relevance and popularity.
Why it’s useful
This would make it far more efficient for busy journalists (or anyone) to write effective web headlines.

Ray, thanks. This tool does get me part of the way there. Thanks for pointing me to it. For my particular intended purpose, I'm hoping for a tool to be used by busy journalists as a quick analysis tool to know what words and phrases are most promising to use in their headlines/titles.

Hi John,
There are many popular content analysis tools out there, this is where Google would be your best friend (search: content keyword analysis). Now, to the extent of automatically providing Google Keyword Planner results AND ranked listings next to the keyword, that I am not sure of.
I like to use Spyfu tools for much of my keyword and competitor analysis. One of their tools, http://www.spyfu.com/Groupie accomplishes much of what you've listed. It analyzes a domain/page and lists its popular keywords and then ranks them by traffic volume. You can then export lists of keywords and further your research through their other tools (like what content is ranking for specific keywords, the competitive landscape, ect).

Thanks, Wilson. I'll check that out. One additional thing I'm hoping a tool could do is show keyword volumes, but maybe I'm hoping for too much in one tool.

Hi, we use Wordtracker scout, an extension for chrome and is probably available on others. it will analyse your page give you a keyword relevence list and then a score on how relevant the page content is for each keyword

Should I use our brand when choosing keywords/making lists?
I have recently joined an accounting firm and am in charge of SEO as we revamp the website. As this is the first time I've done SEO for this type of site, my question is: Should the keywords I choose include our Brand (name of the company) in the keyword. For example, I'm not trying to rank #1 for "Careers" but I do want to rank #1 for " <ourbrand>Careers". So, should I include the brand when doing my research, making lists, etc.?</ourbrand> If the question doesn't make sense, please ask for clarification.

Optimizing for close keyword variants
I am planning my seo project using Moz tools. I am finding keywords that are close to each other. What is the best way to optimize? If I made a page for each of the close words, it would pretty much be duplicate content. Is it best to go ahead and make a page for each and try to make content a bit different? How different does it have to be? Or, would i try to use the different versions of the keyword on one good page. Thank you!

Keyword research tools
So I went to a panel a while back that said Wordtracker is basically useless. I'm not using it as an end-all, be-all, but more for insights and context. Do you agree with that statement? The hosting company provides a keyword research tool, so I wasn't sure how seriously to take it. Have you guys been using Bing for the search data previously provided by Google's Keyword Research Tool? Do you find that to be a viable resource? Thanks.

Using keywords targeted on one page, on another page?
This has been bugging me for awhile. I am trying to build up some great evergreen/cornerstone content for my site. It's basic stuff that just needs to be there. This problem is affecting me already, and I fear that when I get the main content done I will run into the problem when I start blogging for fresh content. The best way to explain this, is to use an example. Imagine a Jewelry store in a major metro. They are already ranking for a few "city + keyword" combos but are looking to expand their keyword reach and get some better rankings. They might have a page on diamonds, and target "city + diamonds." Then, lets say they are writing about Jewelry and you target a page on "city + jewelry" and on this page, it can be hard to write normal sounding content without saying diamond. AKA "We make shopping for "city + jewelry" super easy. You select a diamond, select your "setting, city + jewelry, or something"" What I would like to know, is if I should go crazy with the targeting and just write about "city + jewelry" on one page, for instance, and make sure not to just mention "diamond" and then make a sub-page or something to target "city + diamond + jewelry" Does any of that make sense? Edit for clarity - targeted keyword phrases bolded - I left my ramble above for historical and comedic purposes. It is hard to talk about jewelry without including some really (basic terms/keywords) that I am targeting on other pages. Is this going to be a problem? I might have a page on engagement rings, and another on diamonds probably targeted to the local area. Later, I might decide to write a blog titled "10 Reasons you need to buy an Engagement Ring" Should I alter that blog to be called "10 Reasons you need to buy a Diamond Engagement Ring" and try not to mention just the word diamond(s) or engagement ring(s) so that I don't confuse the almighty Google? Please advise
