Free Traffic Tips

Okay, fire up those keyword research“>keyword research Tools and let’s get your site some more traffic!

The first site we’re going to is Spannerworks.com. We’re going to use their Keyword Density Analyzer (Analyser for those in the UK ). This will determine what keywords your site is currently optimized for.

Click that link to load it up and enter your link.

Look at the second list of links, the two-word phrases. That, in all likelihood, is what Google or Yahoo THINKS your site is about.

Okay, here’s an overview.

(Make sure you’ve got your Google API Key. You’ll need it for two of these steps. It should have been emailed to you instantly when you applied.)

In Step One, we’re going to see what theme your site gives the impression that it’s about. Then we’re going to compare it to what keyword you want.

In Step Two, we’ll pick a better keyword for your site.

In Step Three, you’ll find out what you have to do to make your site better address the kinds of keywords you want.

You probably want to do this in several windows, though not until around 9:30 a.m. because it may take me a minute to make these posts.

First, go to Google.com/api and get your free API key.

Next, go to Search Guild’s Keyword Difficulty Checker.

Then open up either Nichebot, Digital Point’s Keyword suggestion tool, or Wordtracker’s free trial.

If you’re really serious about getting ranked for an easy to intermediate keyword, I strongly suggest you use Wordtracker. A day there will cost you $8 – Wordtracker.com if you have something against affiliate links (I’d only make a buck if you bought a day. But you know me, I’m not just about the dollars.)
