Google Insights for Search

Filed under: Keyword Research,Search Engines,ppc by mike |

Google Insights for Search is a great keyword research tool that deserves some attention if you are looking to spot trends and jump on them!

> Link to Google Insights for Search

There are a million ways to use Google Insights for Search – it has such great info, but let’s try to use it to help us build a campaign – whether PPC or Natural Organic SEO

Let’s say you want to promote a new product or CPA offer – simply go to Google Insights for Search and type in keywords relating to the product and note 2 columns in particular – Rising Searches and Top Searches (under search terms).

Change the settings to 90 days on Google Insights for Search so you can see the CURRENT trends (it’s set to a few years by default). This will show you keywords that are on the rise. Click those and you’ll be taken to more data. Keep track of the keywords and you’ll have an excellent list of “off the beaten path” keywords that are GROWING as opposed to drooping.

Also of note at Google Insights for Search is the “regional interest” data – I just searched for “affiliate marketing” and noted India is at the top above the USA! Hmmmm…. India might be ripe for some PPC traffic, possibly even at a good bid price.

Me, I have Google Insights for Search as a widget – gadget set up on iGoogle – so I can see at a glance what is going on for a few key search terms

So there are a few ways to use Google Insights for Search.

Here are some helpful links with more info on Google Insights for Search.

  38. Google insight for search is really good one but it is not preferable if you are searching for keywords to rank for long time in search engines by using SEO to get free traffic.
    I normally use adwords keyword tool which is simple yet amazing. I found that princess costumes get lots of search by using this tool and hence bought this domain http://disneyprincessdresses.com check it out :)

  41. Great info Mike. Looking at the past year’s data (or longer), Google Insights is also very good for easily seeing the seasonal trends in various niches so that you can be better prepared.

    Comment by Office Password Pros — January 29, 2010 @ 8:00 pm

  42. That must be the most immature tool ever from Google. To start with it is presented to me in Finnish, a language spoken in my country but not MY language.

    Add to this that the change language box is off-screen to the right, really hard to find and finally when I did find it, IT DOES NOT WORK. The drop down box drops up instead of down so half of it isn’t visible on screen and theres no way to use it.

    Google FAIL.

  67. The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index, which covers both A and B shares, shed 102.72 points to 3,369.99.The index slumped 37 percent in the first quarter of 2008, posting the biggest percentage quarterly drop in 15 years.”The market stayed in a downward trend as the government has not issued major market-boosting policies.” said Liao Wenkai, an analyst at Hengtai Securities.”Investor confidence was severely hit by recent sharp falls and they are overreacting to any negatives.” Liao also added that China’s high inflation would be a drag on corporate earnings.Luo, Wang Fengxiu and the other senior citizens in and around the stadium may not have to worry about employment when the situation returns to normal.
