			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Are you stuck in doing keyword research? </strong></p>
<p>And you feel this is the most boring part in your Internet marketing business?</p>
<p><em>Here&#8217;s the deal.</em><br />
<span id="more-73"></span></p>
<p>Post a comment with your niche or a niche that you think there&#8217;s really no room to find keywords that can easily rank on and I&#8217;ll do a case study on it.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll choose among the comments which niche to use as a case study.</p>
<p>Give me 7 days and I&#8217;ll post another video post that contains detailed information on how I did a <a href="http://www.taknique.com/blog/">keyword research</a> for that niche. I&#8217;ll show you long tail keywords to target and why I did choose that keyword.</p>
<p>To be honest, I can&#8217;t see yet any niche that&#8217;s there&#8217;s no room for you to launch a new business. Not even in weight loss niche!</p>
<p>In fact, successful business people will tell you that, more competition the better. Because that means that people are proven to be making money on that niche.</p>
<p>Note though that research a niche and keyword researching is different. Some people get confused on that part. Be sure you already have a niche then I&#8217;ll do a keyword research.</p>
<p>So, go ahead and <strong>post your niche</strong> and you got a free professional keyword research services.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.taknique.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/rubic_cube.jpg" alt="Rubic’s Cube" /></p>
<p>I have a subscriber who sent me a message and asking why keyword research is so damn hard. I know the ordeal she’s facing as I was on her situation nearly 3 years ago.</p>
<p>But I tell you it isn’t hard. People just make it so difficult.</p>
<p>If you’re one of the people who find it difficult, these could be the reasons:<span id="more-66"></span></p>
<h4>You don’t have a clear goals and objectives.</h4>
<p>People do keyword research for various reasons. This can be for PPC campaign, article marketing, or niche research. Your goal and objective depends on what you’re trying to accomplish.</p>
<p>If you’re doing PPC campaign, then you are looking for those keywords that are converting or what commonly known as “buying keywords.” I’ll discuss this type of keywords in my future post.</p>
<p>If you’re into article marketing, then you’re after long-tail keywords with little to competition.</p>
<p>If you’re into Google Adsense (advertising) business model, you’re looking into high to medium traffic keywords with high advertiser bids.</p>
<p>CLEARLY define your objectives, and then create a specific and measurable goal. Your goal can be number of keywords you will attack through article marketing.</p>
<h4>You’re confused which keyword research tool to use.</h4>
<p>There are tons of keyword research tool out there and wherever you go, people seems to advice (promote?) different tools.</p>
<p>Are you aware of affiliate marketing? Affiliates are basically commissioned sales people. They get a certain percentage from every sale they make. With this, people are writing blog posts, forum posting, etc., to promote a keyword research tool.</p>
<p>This is a BIG reason why people promote different tools. To make money.<br />
My advice is just use Google Keyword Tool because they hold the largest search data and it’s free to use. For basic keyword research, you really don’t need fancy reports.</p>
<h4> You didn’t gather your keywords in a single place.</h4>
<p>If you’re like most people, you don’t have a single file or spread sheet that will list all the keywords you’ve searched. A spread sheet that will help you to analyze which keyword is the best to use.</p>
<p>In my book “<a href="http://www.taknique.com/gold">Digging For Gold</a>”, I included a FREE spread sheet where you can type in all important details of a keywords like, number searches, number of competition, etc. This will help you to have a single view for keyword analysis.</p>
<h4> You don’t know what you’re doing.</h4>
<p>This sums up all the points given above. You may be just gone straight to keyword research tool website and start punching in words and phrases. I suggest that you spend 10-15 minutes and be specific with your objectives and goals.</p>
<p>Gather all those keywords and analyze manually which is best for your search engine marketing campaign.</p>
<p>Follow my advice and you’ll be relieved!</p>
