How to Use Google Keyword Planner Tool
–Renee’ Groskreutz
“It is important to consider keyword research when writing a blog post
but it shouldn’t be your driving factor to blogging. It is crucial to
start off with great pieces of information and then figure out
what keywords work best. ”
What you will need
a free Google account
If you don’t have one just go to gmail.com and create one now.
Step 1: Go to Google Keyword Tool
Just click on the Google Keyword Tool. (This was recently named to Google Keyword Planner Tool, because more
characters.)
It will ask you to log in again – that’s standard Google protocol.
Step 2: Click on traffic estimates
You will have several options on this screen but for now,
click on the Get Traffic Estimates for a list of keywords.
Step 3: Decide on location
On the next screen, there are several places that you can type in content.
If your business is local, take advantage of the new location targeting option.
Step 4: Choose your location
Just start typing your city or area that you would like to target. A list of options will come up; pick the area that best suits your potential
client base. If your blog is not geo-centric then just choose your country.
Step 6: First keyword research
Now you are ready to type in your first keyword or key phrase.
Once you have done so, scroll down and hit search.
Step 7: Save your results
If you feel good about your keywords, save the file by choosing .xls
from the dropdown. A .csv file tends to not save edits properly.
Step 8: Sorted Keyword Spreadsheet
The last and final step is to start sorting your keyword in the spreadsheet. What I do is highlight the keywords that I think that I want
to use. Then I pull them to the top right area of spreadsheet so that I can easily reference them.
