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

Keyword optimisation
I have a few questions regarding keywords that we are wanting to optimize on our site. This may be a bit basic so if this had already been answered elsewhere let me know. Question 1: How many time can I refer to the one word on different pages on the site ? Is there any rules around this? In theory the keywords we are looking to include will be relevant to these pages. **Question 2: ** Should I use different variation of the key word or is the one variant fine? Question 3: Looking at the search terms people use from google analytics to get to our site, there is a lot of people using the phrase “sliding windows New Zealand. Should I write this on the page exactly as “sliding doors New Zealand “ or is “sliding doors” fine? Its just that the former phrase doesn't really work with our communication. I look forward to your advice!

Keyword research tool - for off site results
New to Moz, and after playing with keyword research, it seems very comprehensive for analysing keywords based on my site content, and showing me how many people are visiting based on those keywords. However what I'm really looking for is 'alternative' keywords that are 'not' on my site, but still relevant to my sector, and how many searchers are using those. basic example My site is optimised for 'soccer for kids' which Moz shows me getting 50 hits for. Google KW tool reports that every month there are over 2000 searches for 'football for kids' Because my site has no mention of 'Football', Moz doesn't show this as an alternative KW Admittedly my site is new in Moz, so do I just wait a bit longer? or do I continue to use Google KW tool? I'm sure I'm missing the obvious. Thanks!

Google Keyword Tool
Hello, Is the Google Keyword Tool the only reliable source for stats on keyword search volume on Google? The tool returns "no data" results for keywords I would expect to have some, if not much, search volume. I would like to cross-check these results, if possible. Thanks!

Am I Doomed with Low Volume Keywords?
I've been pursuing an internet startup for over a year now. We've figured a lot of things out along the way and even managed to start making some modest revenue ~$3,000/month. We're just now starting to dig into SEO and I'm realizing that most of our keywords aren't very high volume. The best have 1,000 local searches per month (exact match) with most being a couple hundred local searches. I'm worried that I've picked a market that's too small, but I don't have the SEO experience to know if this is normal or not. Most of my keywords are rated 'highly competitive' and also are stacked with CPC ads upon Google search. I'd love to know what others' experience with keyword volume is and if I'm just overreacting on limited knowledge. Thanks!

Trying to avoid Keyword Cannibalization
I have a navigation menu at the top of my page with drop down menus that lead to different pages of my web site. Very typical navigation. If I have a page that is optimized for a particular keyword, lets say "Awesome Blue Widgets", do I want to remove that link from the navigation menu on the page awesome-blue-widgets.htm since the link uses the keyword phrase "Awesome Blue Widgets'?
