The same keyword has the same search volume for 6 ways to type it. How should I behave?
-
the google keyword tool gives me those results:
5 x 1000 60500
5 per mille 49500
cinque per mille 49500
5 per 1000 49500
5per mille 49500
5permille 49500
The google results are different for every typing.
Let's say I decide to bet first on "5 per mille". should I neglect the other ways of typing, or shoul I use them all while writing the content and the metadescription of the page?

Seems to be a significant difference between 5 x 1000 and the rest. So if you want to rank with that term you should definitefely set up an extra page for that and treat that indivually. 5 x 1000 can mean everything ...
The lasting 5 terms are similar and we know that the search engines use synonymes, too - therefore we should definetifely use them. Althouth I made the experience that it is really difficult to rank with all synonyms. The best would be to set up a page for each term - what probably will be very difficult.

I'm afraid you might have fallen into the Google Adwords Keyword Tool "broad match" trap. Select "exact match" and then decide.
-
if you use one, you will rank for all, but you will rank best for the one you include.
pick one and stick to it, dont go un-natural

Keyword Ranking Research Question
Hi Mozzers,This is probably a nooby question, but I was wondering how you guys end up deciding if a Keyword is too hard to rank for? Also vice versa, when do you decide that a keyword is too low volume to rank for so you try to rank for a harder keyword? Eg.

Keywords for fabrication (welding) company??
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?

Are the Volume numbers from the Keyword Difficulty Tool identical to Google Adwords Keyword Tool?
I use the Keyword Difficulty Tool daily. Because of the troubles with Google's API I can no longer see the search volumes. I still want to use the tool for difficulty numbers because I think this is a much better number than the Google Adwords Competitive bar. If I use the Adwords keyword tool for volume numbers, will that be sufficient? Is this the same as what Moz usually provides? If no, where is the best place to gather volume numbers? Thanks!

Targeting Keywords from the homepage
I tend to focus on two or three main keywords to target from the homepage. In fact come to think of it from all pages. Do you target up to 10 keywords of more from one page. Taking longer tail keywords into consideration. Granted the limits to any phrase or keyword group.
