I began researching keywords for my introduction to my blog. Not quite as easy as I had hoped, I think because the of my topic. SEO techniques as a keyword is already quite popular with about a million web pages dedicated to it. I guess SEO is too broad, and according to the long-tail theory I need something more niche’. I have my doubts about how to achieve this. The research tools I used for keyword research was Yahoo Search Marketing. This gave the number of times that it has been searched for over the last month. I also tried WordTracker because they have a free 2 hour trial. The results of most everything I tried related to the blog came back as a bad choice for targeting. WordTracker couldn’t find anything on “SEO to-do list”. So I started investigating by Googling the term. There are a couple of pages with this term and as I was pleasantly surprised to find my own website within the top 10!
