Some are in thousands, but it's not always noted and I'm sure there is more than 1 query for a term. Thanks!

Hi there,

There are high, medium, and low volume keywords. Are you referring to the Parent keyword?

Target Search Terms Changed - does this affect traffic?

We spent the last 12 months targeting a particular search term (mortgage broker) and have been ranking well for it consistently for about 6 months now. We have decided to change the target search term to something else (insurance broker) but noticed that our traffic has started to decline since we started doing this. We are still ranking well for the initial search term, and our ranking is slowly improving for the new targeted search term in SERPs but traffic is down about 60% from January. Is it normal/expected for this to happen?

Supplementing Moz's Keyword Explorer When Volume Has "No Data?"

Many of the keywords for which I'm trying to find volume information in Moz's Keyword Explorer have "no data." This makes it difficult to determine the value of the keyword compared to other options. What tools / techniques do you use as a stand-in for this data?

What is the best way to research long tail search queries?

Hi, I am wondering if there is any special way to seek out long tail search queries? For example, when I search in Adwords or Ubersuggest for a particular group of keywords, I only ever seem to get 1 to 3 keywords. I am looking for the longer search terms like actual questions i.e. "Where is the best yoga studio in Doncaster?" Currently I rely on not hitting in Google in enter but I figure that there must be a better way? Thanks guys!

Also the fact hat may keywords has so many variables, it makes it even tougher and more complex for a new beginner like me. Could anyone please guide me in the right way please? Lets say I would like rankings for Electronic Cigarettes in Norway. It can be written in so many different way, ecig. e-cig. elcig, e cigarette etc etc. (norwegian version ofc) I have for the most part used google keyword planner, but I am really unsure of what boxes to tick and not. I have deleted my wordpress installation and starting from scratch. But I want to make sure I get it 100% right this time before I start.

E-Commerce keyword question

We sell ItemA. One of the phrases that brings people to our site is "ItemA for sale". Should I just try to target "ItemA" or should I try to get "for sale" in there? I have seen a few other variations such as "on clearance" or "to purchase" as well. Can I just focus on "ItemA" or do I need all of those variants as well?

Accurate monthly search data

I have a search term that is only used widely for one month of the year (roughly) - that keyword is "ucas clearing" only really used in august. Looking at google's keyword tool it shows a monthly search figure of 22k and apparently this is the average across the year. Now, do google add up 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,264k,0,0,0,0 - divide by 12 and come up with 22k - or do they see that it isn't steady traffic and just ignore the 0 months and therefore 22k is actually about right? Many THanks for confirmation, Ally

Search Volume vs. CTR

Is it better to optimize based on search volume or click through rate? For example: If a keyword has a CTR of 19% and only 3,000 monthly searches, while another keyword that is relevant to that page has a CTR of 0.7% and 20,000 monthly searches, which keyword should that page be optimized for for better natural results and the bottom line?
