Using keyword suggestion tool from overture effectively.

 
  This article explains you how to optimize your content for keywords which may actually generate traffic to your website. We will explain the process taking an example.
Imagine you are developing a website which aims to help a person choose a domain name. So you may now think that a domain name like www.choosedomainname.com or www.suggestdomainname.com or www.suggestdomain.com may be a great name for your site. Also you plan to rank at top position for the search "suggest a domain name". We will consider that over a period of 3-6 months your new site is at number 1 position for the same keyword.
 
  Wow!!!. Sounds great.
 
  Now use this tool from Overture, a Yahoo company available at
Overture Keyword Suggestion Tool
and make a search for suggest domain. The results are pathetic. Only 37 people have done search for this keyword in whole of August 2004. This explains why although you rank well in google, you are not getting traffic. You have selected the wrong keyword.
 
  So what you need to do?
 
  Make a search on all relavant words like "Domain" "Domain name" etc. Find out the top searched keywords. Make a search of these keywords to find how many web pages appear in the results. This gives an idea about your seo competetion.
