Choosing the right keywords
-
With the Pro tools at SEOMoz, how do you know if your going after the right keywords on your website and do any of the tools suggest keywords you should be going after?
-
I see what you are thinking but take it as an investment, if you calculate witch keywords convert you will be able to rank for them. SEO takes time and why put a lot of work into ranking for bad keywords?
And if the keywords dont convert you could look into that and change the page so that you do convert.SEO is just wasted time if you dont convert! Site structure, navigation and user experience should come first. Adwords is great for finding you and then position spesific pages to rank.

I don't even use Adwords anymore. The problem with Adwords was it costs abotu 80 cents to 1.10 per click. I am selling a book and the profit margin is only a few dollars. So unless 100% of the people who clicked on my ads purchased the book, it was seriously ripping into my ROI
-
In addition, look at what keywords are actually converting in your Google Adwords Campaigns. I didn't know what my keywords were until I saw what people were converting on Adwords.
-
It's not on SEOmoz, but I use Google's Keyword tool - https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal - and Google Insights to see which keywords get the most monthly searches. If your field isn't super competitive, go after the highest traffic keywords first. If there's a lot of competetion you may want to start with the more specialized, less competitive keywords first.

Hi, I just received an email alert from Seomoz telling me my "Weekly Keyword Ranking & On-page Optimization Report " for the period 11/06/12 - 11/13/12 is ready. It is just a copy of the previous report though, all rankings and ranking changes are the same. What is up with that? Best regards, Martin

Whats the best way to research website relevant keywords
I wanted to know the general practices SEO marketers use when initially researching and revisiting relevant keywords for a website. I use this process Brain storm a list of keywords, between me and the client Check out competitors websites & SERP's look at Google adwords traffic analyser ( mostly as a point of reference and for increased ideas) How do others do it? what process do you find works - i'm based in the Uk would be great to get a UK perspective. Obviously you can't optimise for all keywords in your list how best is it to decide on the best value or less competitive keywords? I struggle to get stats for local keywords( not enough search data) - most my clients are local businesses and have limited surrounding service areas. thanks

Can you track the same keywords across multiple campaigns?
I have a few clients in similar industries across the country and I'm wondering if it's possible to track the same keywords (for instance, air conditioner repair, faucet replacement) across more than one campaign, or if I'll had to reupload the same keyword list for each one. Thanks!!
