You are right, since Google is our bread and butter, it stands to reason that we should use their research.

Yet, people missed that simple logic. They rather pay for monthly subscription than use a free and most reliable keyword tool.

Jon,
Your video shows the broad match type, to be accurate for the search phrase, you should choose exact match from the drop down menu, this would show how many people searched for dog training , and not the broad match which would include terms “like training my dog in the park” or “poodle dog training ” both of these terms would be in the 1 million figure.

Hi Dave.
Thanks for pointing that out. That’s another thing I should have mentioned in the video.
People just grab the numbers without really scrutinizing it.

Hi Jon
Thanks for the explanation which was helpful and much appreciated, but can I make one suggestion.
Your video lasts for nearly 8 minutes. However, the essential message you presented could easily have been expressed in 90 seconds.
The actual content was highly repetitive and very slowly delivered. If you are going to offer us an 8 minute video, please can I ask you to give us 8 minutes of content.
I hope you won’t think I’m rude for making this point, but I think it is good to be honest in these matters.
Best wishes
Dan

I have been using Adwords for the last 2 years and i can only say that it increased my online sales by about 20%. The pay per click cost of Adwords is even cheaper than Adbrite. I love Adwords.

Adwords is really good for promoting a product that you want to sell online. It is very important that you geoatarget your intended audience so as to avoid wasting your advertising funds.
