I think the most useful aspect of it is finding up and coming keywords. Type in they keywords you “think” your site should be optimized for and it’ll show you some others that could be even more popular, or becoming more popular.

The more information we have to work with, the better off we are in preparing campaigns and following up with them. I’m glad Google continues to provide us with such tools.

I am just starting out at this game of analyzing search traffic, and I was about to enroll in Wordtracker. Can anyone comment on whether I would be better off with AdWords Keyword Tool + Insights, or if I would be better off with Wordtracker? Or another option? I will be doing some niche work, by the way.

As I understand it, this tool presents data measured against the total volume of searches on Google. Since Google’s search traffic pretty much constantly increases (and broadens), you’re measuring against an X axis line that is moving up. So if you have a keyword that is flat, it’s going to look like a downtrend…

It’s an interesting tool though. The trend comparison is a valuable feature.

Definitely a good tool for trends and search volume comparisons, but it’s pretty useless for anything even resembling a long tail phrase. For that, you still need WordTracker or Trellian (for now).

At first glance it looks interesting. I am sure people that target by geography zone will find it interesting.

I found the Keyword tool in my Adwords account, is better for what I need. I doubt I will ever use Wordtracker again for researching keywords again. Google just has too much data on searches. No matter how niche your keyword string is, the keyword tool has results. Very important.

Google in their desire to improve Adwords has greatly improved many things related to search.

It’s a great tool, but not very usefull for keywords or sites with a low search rate
