I use a similar approach that I've developed based on reading a variety of online and offline resources. I've traditionally thought that "phrase match" would be the best way to determine actual competition, however one of my partners feels that "broad match" offers a better idea on actual competition. For the time being I've chosen to go with broad match, but I may switch back... Your keyword research review is among the most comprehensive and detailed that I’ve found.

For the time being I’ve chosen to go with broad match, but I may switch back…

Thanks Hi Andrei,

Really I would suggest doing both. Stage 1 is just to get a general feel for the market..there are no hard and fast rules…try without ” ” and with ” ” and just see the results…It is meant to give you feel for the market..

Thanks

When you are saying to type the keyword phrase into Google to determine the competition size and look for results under 100,000 preferably, you mean to type:
keyword phrase
or
‘keyword phrase” ?
There is a big difference in results.

Very in detail and informative article,

I've been working on the web for about 10 years and only started seriously researching and studying SEO about 6 month ago. I've always had a good grasp of SEO basics as far as keyword page optimization goes, but in these times that's not enough anymore. Backlinks with keywords as anchors is a really important factor of SEO and page rank building. For the past 2-3 months I've been doing some serious backlink building for 3 or 4 keyword search terms in my niche which are moderately competitive, 2 having under 125,000 page results, and one just over 300,000. I've managed to make some nice ground with page rankings, all my keyword terms are now are within the first few pages, but none have yet to crack page one on Google, but most have climbed to page one in Bing. The interesting thing I discovered (which is my reason for posting), your mention of doing Google searches using intitle:”keyword” and inanchor:”keyword”. I never knew about these techniques before and found them very interesting and useful. Funny thing is, when I performed these search techniques I discovered my site appeared on page one with most of my keywords. I'm not sure what relevance or bearing it has, but I found it encouraging and a possible indication that Google page one is just around the corner when doing a regular search for my keywords. Thanks for the info and tips! Nice article! I’ve been working on the web for about 10 years and only started seriously researching and studying SEO about 6 month ago.
