Short Tail vs. Long Tail

• Short tail keywords – Broad, general terms – 1 or 2 word phrases – Not very specific to your products or services – Might have lots of search traffic – Probably don’t convert very well

• Long tail keywords – 3 or more word phrases – More specific to your business – Might have less search traffic – Probably convert better
