How can I learn what are the most popular keyword phrases?

[GreenHatWeb]

I have done a lot of research on Google AdSense (e.g. how to get started, best practices, how much money can be made, custom channels). I want to write a blog post based on my research, but my question is -- how can I learn what are the most common questions about Google AdSense or Internet advertising from a keyword search perspective?

For example, are more people searching for "How to make money with AdSense" vs "How to make money with Internet advertising" vs "How to make money with a website"?

How do I know which phrase is searched most?

It seems to me that I should make my page title, URL, H1, etc. exactly match (or as close as possible within proper grammar) the question that is most often searched.

Thanks everyone!

Ryan-

Within Adwords you can do a search for traffic on each of those terms. You can also do it within SEOMOZ's keyword research tool. This will give you an exact match figure for monthly search for global and local.

Then when you work through the writing the blog, you can use the item that is most searched as the title and heading and you can use some of the other terms within the article that are searched in 2nd and 3rd place, in the main content of the article, so that the articloe doesn't look like you are keyword stuffing.

Good luck. Hope this helps..

Here is a link to Google Keyword research tool. Be sure to check the box on the left to see [exact] search volume: https://adwords.google.com/o/Targeting/Explorer?__c=1000000000&__u=1000000000&ideaRequestType=KEYWORD_IDEAS

Also, I do not recommend making your title, URL, and H1 exact because that does not look natural (Panda update). I do recommend including them but with variations, build your site for your users not for the search engine spiders.
