I know what you are thinking, so I have to go out and spend more money on a keyword research tool. No, do not buy a keyword research tool, they are a waste. I never have spent one dime on a keyword research tool. I commonly see people using WT and this is inaccurate, outdated, and a waste. The best things in life are free. Use the one at Googles very own tool. Believe it or not Google wants you to make money. Here is the URL to the best and most accurate tool out there:

Ever since Google started showing the actual numbers, I've noticed that all the numbers are over inflated. Google would show 6600 hits and Wordtracker about 600. Can't really believe either one.

I think it's important to get your keyword research from a few sources. Many times Google has 'no data' or shows me the price of a keyword is low - and these values don't help me. So even if WT is inaccurate, it's still results - we just don't know who's truly correct - and does it matter? I check quoted results to see how popular a term is too :)

Wow! I've been using Wordtracker's free keyword tool for quite some time now. I have noticed that there is a difference between WT's results and Google's. I'll just stick with the Google tool from now on. Thanks!
