4 X Search Engine Traffic - Extreme Keyword Research Part 2 - WA Keyword research tool
Firstly. I love Jaaxy! But I have already done my niche and evergreen keyword research for the next year already (for another lesson.)
So to save costs while I am growing my website, I use the WA keyword tool. WA keyword tool works 100% fine for all research, I simply prefer Jaaxy for bigger research topics.
Anyway, here is what I found.
The term review doesn’t look that great right?
Well, if a product is in pre-launch, then I wouldn’t expect to see much search results going on for it. It will take a month or two for more accurate results and the hype to build up. So don’t let this put you off yet…
Also note the competition for the product name… Looks quite tuff, but from our own research, we know that it is actually not going to be that tuff.
Wait… I know what you are thinking… The keyword tool is not broken, I promise… and even bugged support before I understood it ;) … The product keyword that we are searching is just made up of common words used in everyday language… This can obscure your competition results a bit… Hence the initial research we did.
Let’s view the results now…
So more or less (Watch Jay’s video’s if you don’t get the ‘more or less’ ;)… the exact matches are 125…. Which is good.
And…
More or less 14 results… FANTASTIC!
As you can see from the research, this is going to be super easy to rank!
Note that as your domain authority grows, you will be able to rank for even bigger and more challenging ‘fast, easy ranking’ keywords.
Also, understand that Google is a funny character and doing what I am showing you will not necessarily be 100% flawless. However, this kind of research will give you results and put you well on your way to reaching your goals.
With that being said, I mentioned the gamble you are taking doing this…. Obviously, if a product you review flops or doesn’t take off, you won’t get traffic even if you are in first place…
So if you don’t have a good feeling from your research that a product will take off… Put it in your list for a rainy day when you are not in the mood to do research and continue to do this above research until you find a product that excites you.
Lastly, even if you feel you won’t rank for a product now, put it away in a safe place… You may find your domain authority has improved in a few months and then your research you do now, will save you loads of time then.
Again, you are going to have to play around, dive into this and get a feel for it… Then ask as many questions as possible in the comments below. Sound good?
Great!
Once you have found your Keyword, there are a few things I want you to keep in mind while writing…

I fully realize the massive potential in making video's, however, have not yet been able to sit down and get going with my own videos yet..
I do embedded videos from YouTube on some of my posts and do find that it holds a lot of value, but for now those video's are not my own.
You have to remember that YouTube is like adding a second Google powered search engine sending traffic to your posts.
There is loads of traffic to be taken from it and though my thoughts on YouTube are purely from extensive study on the topic and not practice... It is not a traffic source that you want to ignore.
I have seen people build their online businesses from YouTube traffic alone and when you consider that YouTube is owned by Google, It makes complete sense why.
Hope my mumble jumble answered your question ;)
So you have added other people's video's on the topic to your posts?
Did you change the theme? I love the new look and header image. It immediately drew me in!
I had a quick look at your posts and can't promise I'll be able to do so for everyone, but what I noticed is that even though, according to the keyword tool... The posts are meant to be super easy to rank... You are going up against some super powerful Domain authorities.
I think that focusing on your competitor analysis will help a lot in choosing which keywords are worthwhile.
That being said... You are doing extremely well for the position that I found your posts in... I did not expect to see them up there with the likes of Amazon etc.
I mentioned at the end of this training that 'you may be one degree away from boiling', and I really think this applies to your website at the moment.
Check out Jays completion analysis training. I am 100% sure it will help.
I covered a bit in page 8: Extreme Keyword research of this training, but Jays goes more in detail.
Link to Jay's training can be found in page 3 of this training.
Let me know if you are still uncertain after that. :)

An experienced marketing person I know recently told me she couldn't find me in the first few pages of Google, and my niche is not one people will keep coming back to, and certainly not buy anything from. If she's right, I'm considering starting a second site that will be an interest, not a passion like animals, and see if money flows that way.
Anyway, I appreciate you taking the time to have a look, and offer advice. Cheers, Hindy
Happy to hear you are focused on the competition as well now. Looking forward to hearing about your results.
I have to be honest, your niche does appear like it could be a bit challenging. I picked up secondary keywords like 'food' and 'care', but did not see very high searches even with that. Also not sure what the product review searches are like for your niche.
It's a call you will have to make though.
I wouldn't go so far as changing niche all together, but taking out the 'senior' may be an option if it is still too tough after trying with the competitor analysis?
Good luck!
The second thing I'm doing is launching a second niche, with private label products (hopefully), and that has a lot more potential for money making.
