you're gonna be speaking about And a list of ideas that you canuse to start to develop your on page Seo today we're going to jump in to something that issuper crucial and that is seo keyword research How do you start to come up withthese different keywords And how do you know what to do first What to doafter that So let's go ahead and jump into it today We're gonna be talking about breakingthe algorithm with search phrases You heard that right Not keywords but search phrases And Iwant you to pay attention to the additional resource that I have added into the lesson workbook foryou today because it's gonna walk you through and help you better understand why Google Crawlers workthe way they do and what search engines actually do Whenever you produce content you can understand whykeywords are not really so important but search phrases are a little bit more we got a couple morelessons after this but you're starting to get an idea of what you need to do Keep your headup keep working towards your goal that you set up and that starts with how to find keywords Sohow do you find keywords You don't just think here's what I want You don't just look online andsee what other people are doing because what somebody else is doing might not work foryou and your audience and your audience is going to be special They're gonna be people that are likeyou people that are similar to you and you wanna make sure that you are talking tothem in the way that is best for them So how do you find keywordsWell there are different types of keywords Let's dissect what a keyword is So you understand the three partsSo three kinds of keywords And the first one is called a seed keyword This is really short It usuallyhas one word and an example of key C word could be seo that is notreally descriptive It's just a general overarching topic not the best when somebody is lookingto try to understand what Seo is or how to employ it for their website or for theirbusiness So then we move into something called short tell keywords short tell keywords are usually two or three keywordsthat are stuck together into a search phrase These are called short tell keywords because they're short they're notvery long then we have something called long tail keywords and long tail keywords are very long 3to 5 words And whenever you start producing seo content you really want to try to focusin the beginning At least on these long tail keywords you're gonna get less trafficbut the traffic that you do get is going to be higher intent they're gonnabe more interested in what you're writing about or what you're trying to sell long tailkeywords They are a winner winner chicken dinner We you are just starting out Howdo we take a seed keyword which is essentially one word and expand it into ashort tell or a long tell keyword You do this with something I like to call seedexpanders and I don't want you to overthink this Just imagine you're searching for resources about a topicand think about what you would like to see We got a taste of thisin lesson one So if you're unfamiliar with how we started to do this go backand check lesson one again Uh It's available for replay here is essentially how you use a keyword expanderSo I want you to look here in the pink box I have seo that's a seedkeyword If I type that in I'm not gonna be able to rank for that on Google Ifyou type that in you're not gonna be able to rank for that on Google These seed keywordsare pretty much reserved for multimillion dollar corporations that have millions of dollars and thousands of it to be spenton people helping them every single day If you're a small business or new entrepreneur you likely don'thave those sorts funds So we have to use something called keyword expanders Keyword expanders are allthe different ways people could be talking about this when they search for that keyword So as youcan see here I have how to why which and what and we'll see later how these aregonna help you to understand how to produce your content But before you start producing thecontent you first have to have your goal and then you have to have the keywordsyou're going to write about Once we have these keyword expanders we're gonna let's start to turn them into phrasespeople look for So as you can see here we take a short C keyword andwe start to turn it into a long tail keyword So if you look at which forseo I have which Seo research tool is best which seo keywords should I choose Which Seo strategygets the fastest results And I'm actually going to tell you at the end of this course which SEO keywordsyou should choose and what you should do whenever you're starting to develop this entire plan Sostay tuned into that because I promise you're gonna love it Let's take a lookat this A little closer long toe keywords generally have lower search volume but higher search intent Imagine it ifyou're looking for Nike shoes and you type that in well you're really only looking for one thingbut if you type in the best Nike running shoes for basketball players you are probably abasketball player and you're probably looking to purchase running shoes So keep that in mind you're gonna havelower search volume but you're gonna have higher intent And if you're trying to make sales that'sprobably going to be your best bet Short tell keywords have tons of traffic but the intentis really low People don't really know what they're looking for yet So you kind of need to guidethem and that's how you're choosing these seo keywords seed keywords again let's reiterate super difficult to rank forYou should not ever choose these I cannot think of any business that probably should choosethese The last thing you wanna do after you have gone through and used all your keywordexpanders and you've already built out your long tail phrases is you can use a toollike Google keyword planner or you can use a service like spy fu to understand how these keywordsare performing and how many people are looking for them It's a good indication like aforecast if you will of what's to come if you write and include these keywords on yourwebsite or on your web pages So how do you use Google keyword planner It's super simple Go to Appdot google.com Create an account if you don't already have one Once you're logged inclick the wrench in the upper right hand corner and then under planning you'll seesomething called keyword planner Discover new keywords is what you should click on and youcan use this to enter a URL and find what keywords they're using Or if you aretrying to use these long tail keywords that you have created you just wanna click getsearch volume and forecasts You want to use this tool It's gonna tell you how many keywords are rankinghow many people are searching for them And it's also going to let you know if it's a goodchoice or not a good choice for your brand for your industry You want to choose keywords that havehigh search volume and low competition If there is high competition it means you're gonna have to spenda lot of time and a lot of effort starting to rank for those keywords So make sure thatyou're focusing on something with low competition and high keyword search volume This is my preferred tool Thisis called spy fu and it's not a free tool but it's pretty cheap I think it'slike 39 bucks a month and it's a great deal So create account click on seo researchenter a keyword and analyze it the reason I like this keyword tool is because they pull theinformation from Google They have their own little spiders that find out exactly what ison the search engine results page And as you can see here it gives you a lotof detailed information So for the keyword seo we can see that it roughly has 100 and 65,000searches every single month 66,000 of them have a click What you wanna do here is find somethingthat has a high click ratio 66,000 40% are only only 40% of people are clicking on it Notreally a good choice but the reason that this is definitely not a good choice is because of thedifficulty 62% difficulty is not a keyword that you wanna target as a new business owneror a small business because it indicates you're gonna have to spend a lot of money on back linksUh You know a bunch of time and effort to get your article with this to rankThat's it for today guys Uh So go ahead go complete the workbook for lesson number three
