Best Keyword Tool
-
WE are a small Internet marketing agency and of need of a new keyword tool. We were using Market Sumeria but they lost access to Google.
What would you recommend? I'm not looking for a free service but a good service under $100 per month.

Thanks for your input.
Has anyone tried SE Cockpit? It is a bit expensive but seems to do a comprehensive job and uses data from SEOmoz.

I'm a huge fan of Long Tail Pro. It uses the GAKT to pull keyword data and then you can sort by a number of criteria to find the best keywords to target. They offer a Platinum level which is only $17/month and uses the SEOmoz API for determining keyword difficulty/competition. If you enjoyed Market Samurai, Long Tail Pro is quite similar but I actually prefer it over MS.

We try them all out from time to time. I would suggest that you do the same since what your needs are may be more specific for one than another. At the same time I will tell you that for me, I still think of Google's Keyword Tool as very useful on a lot of levels.
With Google's Keyword Opportunities Beta, I find I am able to be quick and thorough. For competitive research, there are plenty of tools. For setting up the direction for a client site, etc. Google's works for me.
Here is a good description of the Beta on SEL by Crosby Grant.
Hope that helps,
Robert

How to best utilize keywords using All in One SEO
Please forgive my noob questions here. I'm using Wordpress with All in One SEO. I'm launching a new video production company (www.heartwavemedia.com) and have spent the last few months building a website for it in my spare time. Visually and structurally, it's there but I'm just beginning to tackle SEO. I've read a fair amount on the subject but I'm unclear on the following: 1. Regarding the All in One SEO "keywords" field on each page, are more or less keywords better? 2. Should I be using a long list of broad, industry relevant keywords that are plugged into every page (where All in One SEO gives you the "keywords" field) or should each page be targeting a more specific set of keywords? Alternatively, is it appropriate to do that sometimes but not others? For example should I be casting a wide net with my home page and then get laser precise with subsequent pages? 3. Is my goal to pick one (or two or three) keywords that my research leads me to believe I could get some traction with and write copy referencing them across my entire site or to spread them around? 4. Is it absolutely necessary to include keyword rich copy for each page or doe's the "keyword" field address that need? Are they read the same by SEs or do they complement each other? 5. On a scale of 1-10, how infuriating are the previous 4 questions? In the event that your head hasn't exploded, I appreciate your forthcoming advice!

3 (similar) keywords - 3 (similar) domains - best strategy?
Hi all! I've got head scratcher here, your input would be super valuable! We have these 3 exact match domains. FloatTank.ca
Keyword Research | | BrightIdeas
IsolationTank.ca
SensoryDeprivationTank.ca The domains are all 3 different ways of saying the exact same thing - and each of the 3 keywords have roughly the same amount of traffic. Right now we are just providing information on Float Tanks / Isolation Tanks / Sensory Deprivation Tanks, their benefits are and how to use them, where to find a location etc. Do you have any strategies or advice considering the current domains and the points below? The content on each site would be VERY SIMILAR, as they are all talking about the same thing, "floating". Any suggestions for this? We want to (sometime in the near future) create a branded website. ie. FloatNation.ca in which we rank for all 3 of the above terms. Should we spin content for each site, and then create a 301 down the road to our main domain? Your input is appreciated! All the best,

Keyword search tool or API
Anyone have a suggestion for a simplistic (scaled down) version of a keyword research tool that I can put on our website? We need our clients to be able to perform some basic keyword research on their own without getting lost in the details of something too robust. We would like to control aspects of the tool, capture the data from the site visitor and move those results (from their searches) into a database or other web application.

Best tool for drawing sitemaps?
Drawing up sitemaps is one of those tasks that seems to take me twice as long to do electronically that it does on paper. Unfortunately, sitemaps scribbled on sheets of A4 paper aren't much good for sending and sharing. So, Mozzers, what tool or software do you recommend for drawing up sitemaps quickly and easily? So far I've tried using Visio, Excel and Word but if there's a dedicated tool out there, that would be awesome. Thanks in advance, Cheers
