Publish an article for blog before the Keyword research
-
Hi, my first time in the community.
my web site is pretty new and I'm focusing now on the Onsite SEO.
I am using an outsourcing company that writing me content, and I want to start my blog and publish it.
but, I didn't finish yet my Keyword research, is it useless from google perspective to publish it without any keywords?
it can hurt my site if ill publish it without any keywords inside of the article?
or it still can be good for my site ranking/power?
thanks !!!

If you haven't done any keyword research, your article still contains keywords - you just don't know what they are. It will make the performance of your content erratic. Even this comment which I am typing now, contains keywords which Google will be picking up on. Google doesn't know what research you have done and all strings of text contain words, which when grouped in certain ways can form keywords
You'll just get traffic for slightly bizarre queries every now and then as your work will lack focus. Keyword research is something you do to target your content. It doesn't mean that content can't perform without keyword research, though - but that un-targeted performance may not bring the visitors you would wish for

It's a somewhat unorthodox approach, but if you write about your businesses industry - if your a mechanic write, about cars - then it won't hurt your business. In my experience content is optimised for keywords, starting to publish articles sooner rather than later is a better approach in the long run.

How accurate is Googles Keyword Planner?
I did some keyword research for our company. Some of the terms we got 100,000 search volume for in 2011 now have only 90 monthly searches. I am doing exact match for both US and Global and neither are any where near those high of numbers. Now I can't say how the old report on this was done but we are all a little skeptical of these numbers. Is there any other tool out there for search volume on Google? The Moz tool while it lists Google as an option only does Bing. Thank you!

What are SEO's using for Keyword Research?
Hey folks, I just wanted to find out what everyone is using for keyword research now that the Google Keyword Tool has been retired. I know there is a form of it in Adwords, but something a little more usable than this. Cheers,

Google keywords
I'm having trouble understanding how google determines out of my text what are the keywords and what aren't. Is there somewhere I can go that will tell me what google sees as my dominant keywords and I'd like to see my total keyword list too. We are running eCommerce and I don't think it is picking up on everything we expected it to see as keywords. I'm pretty new to this SEO stuff but I'm trying to learn. Any help would be appreciated. I understand I'm suppose to include important words in my page titles, headers and meta description and use effective markup as well so I'm just a bit lost on how I can actually see what google counts as my keywords and their level of power/importance. If this isn't possible if anyone has any suggestions on how to gauge this, I'm open to ideas! Thanks in advance guys!

How do I find traffic for local keywords?
We're having trouble finding reliable traffic numbers for long-tail local keywords (ex. - "computer repair green bay"). We tried using Google Insights but it doesn't display long-tail keyword information, only broad keyword keywords searched for in a certain locale. We also tried using Wordtracker, but that hasn't been too reliable either. Is there a single tool that provides real traffic for local long-tail keywords?

Reasonable price for Keyword Research
If I knew what to look for I would do it myself. But I want it done now. The words would relate to one broad category with possible gold that can be mined from 12 sub-categories categories. In my preliminary seat of the pants research I didn't find much in the sub-categories but there were around 10 key words in the broad categories. I am getting a lot of long tail words ranked but I don't believe there is hardly any traffic. Does anyone know what a reasonable estimate is for this degree of keyword research? Also if anyone would like to submit a bid for this work please personal email me. Utah Tiger.

How do I figure out which keyword to optimize for?
What's up guys! We run a site for tennis players and courts in the whole country - http://www.tennisround.com/. People use the site to find a tennis partner at their skill level and send each other invites to set up matches, it's also used to find local tennis courts. The question is - Which keyword(s) should we optimize the site for and how? Cheers, Alex 7h1HKYL_jJ0 sYaQH 7h1HKYL_jJ0 sYaQH 7h1HKYL_jJ0
