If Jaaxy shows a keyword phrase of let's say "best birthday gifts men" as a low competition keyword phrase and we write an article for keyword phrase "best birthday gifts <

I always double check the correct grammar and compare with the bad grammar keyword. Usually they are similar, but you'll find the the bad grammar one will have lower competition.

That's because your "competition" number is looking at how many websites contain that phrase. Of course fewer websites will contain poor grammar!

This is why I always focus on keywords using correct grammar, but I do look at the bad grammar ones just for reference.

Hi Marissa, no they won't rank the same. However that said, google doesn't factor in punctuation. so you can use the begining of a sentence, then break it into two phrases. Just as long as it makes sense and it is grammatically correct
example
Syrian refugee numbers
Life is not easy for a Syrian refugee, numbers rise each day as they continue to flood the turkish border.
Keep your long tail intact.

Great information Joseph! Thank you!

I disagree with the use of punctuation to make up for keywords that have incorrect grammar. I think Google is smarter than that, and can understand the context of users typing incomplete sentences.

Yes you are quite right, they are sometimes called "stop" words. Jaaxy may return a result like "best birthday gifts men" because that is what is actually being searched for in the search engine. Jaaxy or any other keyword tool might say that this is low competition, because it will be for that exact phrase. However the keyword "best birthday gifts for men" may be given the same value by the search engines, but it might be much harder to rank for.

Thank you for clarifying ave212!! So I should plug in "best birthday gifts for men" into Jaaxy and see where this phrase sits in competitiveness?

Yes, exactly. Glad to help!
