If you want your website to rank in the search engines, you'll need to optimize it for particular keyword phrases. Keyword research is the process of finding out which keywords will be the easiest and most beneficial to optimize for.

Generally, you'll be looking at two things:

1. Search volume: How many people search for the keyword in a given month.

What is Search Engine Optimization?

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the process of optimizing your website with the goal of increasing your search engine ranking and ultimately your traffic and sales. It involves researching your keywords to find good phrases for your website, placing these keyword phrases strategically on your website and then improving your ranking by increasing the number of backlinks to your website.

What? This tool allows you to research keywords. It tells you the approximate average number of searches per month for a keyword phrase and also suggests similar alternative keyword phrases.

Why? You need to make sure that your keyword phrase is actually being searched on before you optimize your website. Optimizing your site for a keyword that nobody searches will mean that you get very little or no visitors from the search engines.
