TDC - Awesome trick based on Ed’s Google Trend trick!

August 9, 2007 · Print This Article

Hey guys (and gals),

I discovered a way to take the awesome technique that Ed uses with Google trends to quickly do a bulk check of all your keywords at once.

Imagine the time you’ll save by just having to copy and paste all your keywords once and have google check each one individually and give you the total traffic for each key phrase.

Yeah, that’s right… Just copy and paste your entire niche phrases and sit back. In a matter of seconds you’ll have your list of keywords as well as their traffic estimates compared to the umbrella phrase (male yeast infection).

Pretty awesome isn’t it? I thought so too.

Let me show you what I done…

First thing you need to do is log into your Google Adwords account. If you don’t have one, create it.

Once you are logged into your account, follow these steps.


Click on Tools


Then click on Traffic Estimator


Type in your umbrella phrase (male yeast infection)


Go to Wordtracker and copy all the keywords for your niche (or wherever you have them stored).


Paste them as shown. I just included the search phrases given by one particular results of Wordtracker. You can paste in all keywords you want to check.


For this example I didn’t change anything on this screen except to add “All Countries and Territories” to the Selected Countries and/or Territories section. Now click Continue.


Here are your results. Click on the Search Volume to sort.


Here’s the final results. Notice the umbrella phrase and the bar indicating its search volume. Now we know from Ed that the “male yeast infection” phrase has an approximate search volume of 550 searches (give or take).

So from this we can now judge the search volume of each of the other phrases in relation to the umbrella phrase.

So for example, the phrase “self catering ireland” get approximately the same search volume as “male yeast infection” and therefore gets about 550 searches a day as well.

Awesome isn’t it? If these numbers are accurate, this trick will cut hours of work down to a couple minutes.

I would love to hear Ed’s thoughts on this trick. What are your thoughts?

    Shannon,

    That is an awesome trick. I love it. Not only am I going to Digg it but I will mention it on my blog.

    The only issue is that you have to add the “. remember we want to compare the exact match phrase. That’s an easy adjustment to your awesome trick!

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Yeah for the example I forgot to add the quotes. I actually have a spreadsheet created that I can just paste the wordtracker results and it adds the quotes automatically.

    Hey Planet Apex,

    It’s not the be all technique, but it does help speed things up a little.

    lol, I thought you’ll ask that.

    Actually I’m just trying to learn net marketing and trying to see whether I can make some money. I’ve been trying to do blogging like those problogger and all say but it’s not going right.

    @Planet Apex

    Just remember that internet marketing is not a get rich quick method.

    Whichever path you decide it’s going to take time and patience. It’s a never ending learning process.

    Good luck in your success!
