What is Key word and Keyword Research?
Keywords are the building blocks of SEO. Keyword research involves the process of researching the best keyword or search phrase which is ideally suited for the given website or the website under observation. It is the first step in SEO.
Why Keyword research is important?
A bunch of links point to your site from reputable, authoritative, and relevant sites. But without the right anchor text, how much are those links really worth? Do you ensure your site is designed and developed in a way that's intrinsically search-engine-friendly? If your pages don't contain the keywords you want to optimize for, how will spiders know to return them for those queries?
Benefits of Proper Keyword research
Proper keyword research and selection helps establish an effective foundation for most of your online marketing efforts. The keywords you choose will power your search engine optimization, sponsored ad campaigns, link building campaigns, press releases and more.
When to begin keyword research? Before you begin any of the aforementioned marketing efforts you must have already determined what core terms your site will be built upon and what keywords will fuel your online marketing efforts. Keyword research should be the first step in any process that involves optimizing and marketing your website through the search engines. I would say keyword research is the most important part of the process, yet often one that is glossed over as either largely unimportant, or not important enough to spend enough time doing effectively.
Where do people go wrong?
Identifying and selecting the correct keyword phrases to optimize and promote your site with is important, time consuming and sometimes it’s even difficult. Many people often get hung up on the wrong keywords based on incomplete data or not thinking through each keyword carefully. If keyword research is not performed with the correct focus in the correct areas you may find you have a whole mess of phrases to target but no clear picture on the value of those phrases or their ability to drive targeted traffic.
