Negative keyword search is equally important. In finding words that aren’t useful to your campaign, WordStream continuously refines your keyword list to help improve your CTR, which in turn improves your Quality Score and positioning while saving you money by lowering your CPC. Let’s take a look at what makes WordStream an effective keyword research tool, and how you could be losing money and qualified traffic by not using a keyword search tool. A Starting Point: The Free Keyword Tool by WordStream If you're new to keyword research, it can be helpful to seed your list using a free online keyword tool. These tools will always have limited value for search marketers because they simply spit out keywords and don't tell you what to do with them or help you actually optimize your site. Nonetheless, everybody has to start somewhere. WordStream's Free Keyword Tool is the best option on the market when it comes to fast, easy keyword suggestions. We index over 1 billion unique keywords from diverse sources to return more keywords faster. You get thousands of relevant, accurate suggestions, always 100% free. The next step is to build on this data with a more personalized tool, and then organize your growing keyword database, so you can turn those keywords into real results. Using WordStream as your keyword search tool Means More Effective Keyword Research Keyword research is an ongoing, iterative process, and as such, a tool that automates it in a smart way is the ideal solution. Traditional keyword search tools treat keyword research as a one-time activity, relying on you, the search marketer, to provide them with new terms on which to build other keywords that seem like they may be related. These tools don’t know your actual website content or traffic patterns, so the results you get are not only limited, but they’re often off the mark of what you really want to focus on. WordStream takes the smart approach by taking the guesswork out of building an expansive keyword list that guarantees a broader audience of qualified visitors. By automating tasks like: searching through your site’s traffic logs to pinpoint long-tail keywords, suggesting keyword group segmentations to help keep you organized, and helping you pinpoint which negative keywords to avoid, WordStream makes a previously overwhelming and time-consuming process remarkably simple. WordStream not only helps you to grow your keyword list larger than you would ever be able to on your own, but it also helps you to organize it and keep everything under control. How Not Using Keyword search Tools Restricts Your Audience And Loses You Money The traditional approach to keyword research involves hours and hours of frustrating and tedious work to attempt to wrangle a manageable an effective list of keywords to target for your PPC campaigns. Not only is this an ineffective use of your time, it’s also impossible to keep up and stay organized in a way that’s helping your campaign to move forward instead of being held back. When you manage your keyword research on your own or with a team, you are: working with a limited keyword list that’s not based on your actual site data expanding your keyword list only so far until it becomes unmanageable to expand it any further on your own expending a massive amount of inefficient effort with constant upkeep and revision, struggling to keep up with your data not reaching your broadest and most qualified audience losing money by bidding on the wrong keywords You need to find a way to free yourself from being tied to your keyword research, with the assurance that the keywords you’re using are the specific, long-tail terms that will bring the best traffic for the least amount of monetary investment. Unfortunately, this is physically impossible when managing a campaign by hand, but it's readily within reach with a good keyword search tool. A Keyword search tool That Goes Above And Beyond WordStream takes your keyword search to an entirely new level when compared with other keyword research solutions on the market. Tools like Google’s Keyword Tool help you out to an extent, because they can help you build a very small preliminary keyword list based on a handful of terms you think might work. While this is okay as a bare bones starting point, it quickly becomes clear that a more robust solution is in order. Unlike Google's claims above, WordStream can provide assurance that the words you're given will help your campaign because WordStream pairs data analytics with action, or, “actalytics,” to provide the best of both worlds of your keyword search. You benefit from the research and keyword analysis side that works with the data surrounding your site’s traffic, and the appropriate actions to take on that data, like: suggesting new keywords, grouping them into a hierarchy, or turning them into text ads for your campaign. WordStream goes beyond sorting data, or making ill-informed suggestions based on global search trends, and this, in turn, leaves you in the driver’s seat to manage your continuously growing list of keywords with confidence.
