How to find easy keywords to rank for?
-
We've got fantastic results from a keyword here. After we signed up for SeoMoz, we found that, for luck, this was a very easy keyword (1%) to rank for.
How can I find more easy keywords?
-
Well the question was "How can I find more easy keywords? " keywords people place in their meta tags are usually challenging and even if they are not challenging one must do the research to figure out if they are challenging... Another thing I like to do is check for related searches in a google search

True but since sites still have them it's a good indicator of what people are optimizing for. That's my point.

Meta tag keywords are not good for SEO anymore, Bing looks at this as a spam indicator. If the site you are looking at still has these tags on their site they are probably not up to date with the latest practices.... I wonder how good their phrases will be
-
All depends on your industry. What I would do is look at your main competitors and check out the source code to look at their meta tag keywords and start from their. You do this best using Firefox browser, right clicking, view source code. All the info will be in the head, top of the page. Then I'd run an analysis using the keyword tool here or using the keyword tool google provides. I hope this helps and good luck.

Use Google keyword tool to find good keyword phrases. (be sure to check [exact] field on the left of page) This tool will also suggest other keywords for you. The thing is it will show competitiveness for Google Adwords not organic results soo...
Once you have the keywords you want...
Check SEOmoz keyword tool to see how competitive each phrase is. Since you are a pro member you can check 5 at a time.

Tool for wildcard keyword suggestions
Like others, I have also been oblivious to the options which were uncovered in this article, using stars or underscores to uncover more keywords suggestions. However, I am trying to find a way to avoid the manual labour. Did any of you find a successful tool that automatically adds all the possible combinations of these wildcards to give a comprehensive lists of suggestions? I am looking for a tool that also included my country (.nl).

Homepage keyword changing strategy
Hi! We're a spanish construction company and we've been positioning our home with the keyword "wooden homes". We also have a specific landing page positioned with that same keyword. Right now we are getting out of a penguin and panda penalization and we're doing well. As part of a rebranding strategy we are thinking of changing our homepage keyword to "luxury homes". We are still going to hace the "wooden houses" landing page but this keyword is just going to be present in its own landing. The new keyword has much more volume of search than the one we have right now. Is there a strategy you can recomend us for this rebranding? Thanks

To switch high-ranking keyword for one with higher volume?
I have a client who already ranks very well for the keyword "odor removal service" (#3 average rank). I'd like to use this as my primary keyword phrase, but the search volume is not very high (avg. monthly search of 90). A similar keyword phrase like "odor eliminator" has a search vol. of 4400 and the same competitiveness. Even its long-tail derivatives like "natural odor eliminator" still have a much higher volume (360) and would be a more accurate description of the service. In cases like this where you are already ranking well for a relevant keyword (but are still not generating much traffic), is it worth losing that keyword ranking in the hopes of ranking better for a keyword with higher volumes. Just to be clear, I'm not referring to a secondary keyword, but to the main keyword phrase around which we'll be building primary and secondary related keywords. Thanks for any feedback.

Keywords with and without diacritics
Hi, I am trying to make my site to appear in the search results even the searched term have or have not been wrote with diacritics for example: "șarpe" or "sarpe". The language is Romanian. If I seach for "Românul cu maşină, marea victimă" or "Romanul cu masina, marea victima" the first result for both searches is the same. I don't see anything special on their html code and I am wondering how do they did it. Regards, Bogdan

International Keyword Ranking
I want measure my ranking for keywords in various countries and search engines. If I use a tool such as rank checker to determine my rank for google.uk, google.au.com, etc... is that accurate, or does my IP still affect the rankings I see? If I use a VPS such as Hide My Ass (or another product you would recommend), would that make my ranking results more accurate? I also want to measure my ranking in Russia, where Yandex is very strong so a tool to measure my Yandex ranking + Google would be ideal. What method you would recommend to accurately determine my rankings in different countries? Thank you!
