Search volume trend from last two months provides the trend of users who searched for the same keyword each month. If you see that trend is going down every month then it means that the keyword is trendy only in a specific month. It can provide you traffic for a specific time interval or for a seasonal occasion but it is not a keyword which can provide you traffic throughout the year if you are on top with the keyword. It is good to select those keywords which show a consistent trend for the keyword research throughout the year.

Google keyword planner provides the keyword average monthly searches in a specific range like if the search volume for the 1st keyword is 900, and the other keyword has only 200 search volume google keyword planner will show AMS (average monthly searches) in the group of 100-1K search volume. Whereas the KWFinder provides the exact AMS which is good for analyzing different keywords. You should select the maximum keywords in the range of 800 to 2000 or 3000 AMS rather than a single keyword having 10K to 100K AMS. The reason behind this approach is that it is very easy to rank multiple keywords which are similar and have low search volumes whereas targeting a single keyword with high search volumes takes much efforts to rank the website with that keyword on the top page of Google.

This score ranges from 0 to 100, the lower is easy while the higher is difficult to rank. As per our own experiences you should go after the keywords which have KD (Keyword difficulty) lower than 35. Look for the keyword with consistent search trend, good search volume, and lower keyword difficulty.

If you see the authority sites in your competitor list, then try not to focus that keyword as it is very hard to compete with an authority website whereas if the websites are less famous and don’t have good stats then you should go for that key phrase.

Use Results Filters

To get the good keywords, you should use the filters option as well. It allows you to set your own preferences for the suggested keywords. Like you can provide a range of average monthly searches from 800 to 3000, you can set the keyword difficulty from 10 to 30, minimum and maximum values for CPC and PPC, and you can also set the number of words in a key phrase. This is best practice to use the number of words filter to find only long tail keywords. Set the minimum value to 4 and the maximum value to 8 or 10 to get the best long tail keywords for your specific seed term with high search volume.

Concentrate on Local Searches

The last thing which you should take care of while searching for the keywords is that if you are providing your services then try to find the local keywords. It means you have to target those users who are finding the services in their own city. For example, if you are an SEO company and you want to promote your SEO services by getting top position on Google, then your first target should be to take #1 spot on Google with your own city name. If you are based in Cambridge, then you should focus for the keyword SEO Company Cambridge instead of simple “SEO Company” and if you are providing your services in London, then you should go for SEO company London, or SEO services in London or anything like this which can target your local potential customers.
