Although I definitely believe in doing thorough keyword analysis, to do initial keyword analysis as I am web surfing I often use [http://www.seobook.com/4515-8-3-28.html SE0 Firefox]. I suggest downloading [http://www.seobook.com/4515-8-3-28.html SE0 Firefox] now if you can and I give instructions in the next paragraph. I also use [http://www.seobook.com/4515-8-3-28.html SE0 Firefox] to do link building and it comes in very handy.
*[http://www.seobook.com/4515-8-3-28.html SE0 Firefox] If you don't have the FireFox browser I would recommend downloading it now as it enables you to use important SEO tools plus it is a more safe and secure browser than Explorer. You can download the FireFox browser [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ HERE]. Please watch the short video on [http://www.seobook.com/4515-8-3-28.html SE0 Firefox] and please definitely download it as it is a great free tool that I use all the time. I would only use this tool when doing SEO work (You can turn the software on and off by clicking the SEO FireFox icon at the buttom right corner of your computer screen) and I would adjust the settings so only the most important info appears automatically, PageRank (PR), age of website, total links to website listed by Yahoo (Y links), total edu page links listed by yahoo (Y! edu page links), and DMOZ. I personally have good luck with Google not temporarily shutting me off for access to Google (Google only does it for about an hour or two) when I put a 2 second delay but you might have to play around with this. If the first option to download the SEO FireFox software doesn't give you a fully functional piece of software like it did for me. Use the second option. I had to use the second option and perhaps you should use the second option first.
*[http://www.seoquake.com/ SEO Quake] (please get this although admitedly I never use it now that I have SEO FireFox. Again, only use when doing SEO work.
Next, I constantly use the free Google toolbar for Firefox to do for SEO which you can get [http://www.google.com/tools/firefox/toolbar/FT3/intl/en/ HERE].
An exception to the Google Keyword principle is linkbait material which will be covered later in this resource. A quick definition of linkbait material is material that is super helpful, VERY interesting, or material which is very controversial or upsetting to some people. For example, I created an article on a very popular subject. I then did some good research on a two very relevant but VERY irksome sub topics which were related to the main topic (keyword). The sub topics were on very relevant matters in terms of their implications but they were on topics very irritating to some people. these sub topic articles were on topics which normally people would rarely if never do searches on and by incorporating some of this material in my main article via two sub articles (linked to the main article) that covered these two sub topics separately, it catapulted my ranking for the main subject which is a very popular search. I actually featured a string of very irksome topics within my main article and had sub articles covering this topics but I know that the two very irksome topics caused the most consternation. Essentially, what happened is that the bloggers talked about the string of irksome topics due to some people inflating the view counts of the sub articles dealing with the string of irksome topics. My main article got free publicity all over the world because of this. I even came across some fairly well known Russian mentioning my material although I had to have a Russian speaker tell me what he wrote.
