GTRENDS SE
KEYWORD RESEARCH FOR THE LAZY BECAUSE YOU CAN!
August 2007 - that was the month of the Thirty Day Challenge, the
"biggest Internet marketing event to date". It got me a bit excited
then, because it was quite unlike anything I had seen before in the IM
world. I'm Janis Elsts, and I've seen a lot of online marketing
resources, e-books and tools. Most of them are crap - but you already
knew that, didn't you?
TDC was different - it was free (and the archives are still
available free of charge), the information and techniques were
actually useful and it wasn't a thinly veiled attempt to sell
something. The goal was to help ordinary people to make their first
ten dollars online. While it wouldn't be the "first" $10 for me, it
still seemed like an interesting thing to try.
Anyway, one of the methods introduced was the "GTrends" technique.
WHY IS THE GTRENDS TECHNIQUE SO GREAT?
Typically nobody (outside of Google) knows how many searches a
specific keyword gets. All the usual keyword research tools are just
estimating based on indirect observations, like data from _other_
search engines. Those estimates are often wildly inaccurate. The
GTrends technique uses data that _Google itself_ has made available,
so it has _much better_ accuracy.
THE ONLY PROBLEM IS
you have to analyze _every single keyword_ manually, and you might
need to check hundreds of keywords to find something worthwhile.
Initially you needed to check the number of competing pages, analyze
the keyword on Google Trends, place a ruler on your screen (I'm not
kidding) to calculate the number of visitors per day and do a number
of other things. The online tool from Wordtracker helped automate some
of these tasks, but you _still_ need to investigate every keyword
separately. This is a mechanical and uninteresting task; it's also
rather slow.
THERE IS A SOLUTION!
When I first learned about the GTrends technique, I didn't
understand the implications yet. Only after wasting a few _hours_ to
come up with a couple of barely usable niche keywords did I understand
- this task should be automated. So I wrote a program, or - more
accurately - two programs. Now my market research process is a lot
faster and simpler. It goes somewhat like this :
* Get an idea.
* Go to Wordtracker's GTrends tool [6] and type in a phrase that
describes the idea, e.g. '"speed reading". Hit Enter.
* CLICK _ONE_ BUTTON to start analyzing all the keywords
Wordtracker returned.
* Continue exploring new ideas while the keywords are researched in
the background.
* When done with that, switch from the browser to the keyword
research software and - see below
So what is my program good for? Here are some of the things you can
EASILY do with this software :
* INSTANTLY KNOW which keywords are potentially profitable (they're
highlighted for your visual enjoyment);
* SORT the keyword list any way you like;
* EXPORT the list to Excel (or any other spreadsheet that can read
CSV files or tab-separated lists);
* Do IN-DEPTH research on interesting keywords;
* Add new keywords to analyze ON-THE-FLY (+ copy paste work!).
And here are some of the things you DON'T NEED TO do to use it :
* No license keys, serial numbers or "phoning home" to worry about;
* No need to sign up for a newsletter, opt-in to something or give
away your e-mail address;
* No need to expose your niches - the program goes straight to
Google to do the research, so I couldn't "steal" your idea even if I
wanted to;
* No need to give up control - you can add, remove, export or
otherwise manipulate keywords at any time; you can pause/resume the
analysis at any time and see the current progress at a glance; you can
save the keyword list and load it up again later - the software will
continue processing from the point it left off;
* No need to worry about whether this tool is right for you - try
the software risk-free for 8 weeks and, if you're not completely
satisfied with it, just let me know for a full refund! I offer a 8
week money-back guarantee, so you've got nothing to lose if you choose
to try this tool;
SO WHAT, EXACTLY, IS THIS GTRENDS SE TOOL?
It's two things - a Windows application that does keyword research
using the GTrends technique _and_ a Firefox extension (optional) that
can grab the keywords from a Wordtracker page and pass them to the
Windows program. You can also add keywords manually, so you don't have
to install the extension if you don't want to. The software comes with
an automatic installer and you will be presented with a download link
right after you've completed the purchase. Downloading and setting it
up usually takes no more than 10 minutes.
WHAT'S IT GONNA COST?
Inspired by the Thirty Day Challenge, the price is currently set at
$10. Yep, ten dollars is all I ask for this awesome tool. Take it or
erm, I mean, just take it, okay? :) It's a one-time charge and you get
free updates forever.
