Keyword Finder

I'm looking for some direction to find better keywords for my sites. Any tips would be appreciated? This question could potentially be too broad.

I'm surprised to see that SEOmoz doesn't have a keyword research tool like Trellian software or wordtracker! I would definitely recommend Trellian's "Keyword Discovery" tool - and I actually canceled my subscription with them when I started with SEOmoz, thinking that there would be a keyword research tool that digs into historical and global data for keywords and gives all related keywords that you can then export into a CSV file.
I'm impressed with SEOmoz for sure and just surprised there isn't a keyword tool like this...unless I just haven't found it yet!

If you are a pro Moz member, you can utilize tools like the keyword difficulty tool to see where certain terms rank, etc. There is also SpyFu to do comparisons with similar sites, etc. (though I personally am less enamored of this than others).
But, if you are trying to save a few dimes and your competitors are not savvy you can use your SEOmoz toolbar to great benefit. Go to a competitive site and then click on the toolbar to display the page analysis. Then look at page elements (shows first). See what they have put in as keywords and pick and choose. (On your site, make sure your keywords are not showing when you do this). See if there are terms they are using you did not think of, etc.Take what you gather and go to Google's keyword tool, put them in, and see what is going on with each in order to refine your choices. Hope this helps.

Hello,
You could try using the Google keyword suggestion tool (https://adwords.google.com/o/Targeting/Explorer)
That would provide suggestions of keywords by;
- Analyzing a list of keywords, then suggesting relevant alternatives
- Scanning a website (yours or a competitors) and parsing relevant keywords

Keyword Over-usage?
I have a photography page, where there are a number of galleries. In the galleries and thumbnails of each photo I'm selling. These also include the title. It's built dynamically. However, I've noticed when I do an on-page grade check, that one of the places I'm failing is over-using the keyword on the page. This is mainly due to the titles of each photo containing that keyword. For example, there might be a photo gallery for images of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, and 30 of the 40 images on the page have a title with "Golden Gate Bridge" in them. So naturally, the title is displaying this on the page and showing up 30+ times (after the term is used in the page text as well). Is this a really big problem, or is the benefit on each individual photo page outweighing any hit on the gallery page? Any thoughts? Thanks!

Keyword Density and ALL CAPS
Hello everyone, New member and first time asking a question! Having a disagreement about keyword stuffing on a home page. The client has 14 mentions of their brand all IN CAPS. So it's sentences like ... BRAND was established in 1968 and has become one of the biggest leaders in the donut industry. In fact, BRAND has created a strong BRAND community ... etc. [the lead paragraph is three sentences and four mentions of BRAND] A design agency that is also in the picture says that this is fine because the word appears naturally in the sentence. Can you either 1) tell me I'm wrong and explain why or 2) give me some ammo to give to my client to support my argument. Thanks! Lisa

Identifying Keywords - Longtail
I need some clarification as to how exactly keywords work. I learned that I should focus on more specifically targeted long-tail keywords. However I am uncertain of how this actually works. Say I decide to use the longtail keyword "online dyslexia test for children". Will my page only be found by people when they enter that exact search term or will it also be found when people search for any of the other terms containing the same words? For example like all the phrases below: free online dyslexia test

how do you test for dyslexia in children Also if I have a page that I optimize for "online dyslexia test free" can I create another page for "free dyslexia test online" or will this be creating competition? In other words are these both unique keywords that will independently rank. Last question about keywords is are they still important and what is the search volume you should be targeting with your keywords. (Allot of my long tail keywords only have around 20 monthly US searches) Thanks! Joy0 -
E-Commerce keyword question
We sell ItemA. One of the phrases that brings people to our site is "ItemA for sale". Should I just try to target "ItemA" or should I try to get "for sale" in there? I have seen a few other variations such as "on clearance" or "to purchase" as well. Can I just focus on "ItemA" or do I need all of those variants as well?

Keyword: singular vs plural
Hi, I've been putting some efforts to rank well for "San Antonio Wedding Photographer". I am ranked ok for that but not so on "San Antonio Wedding Photographers". My website is http://www.soobumimphotography.com/ So now, I am trying to rank for "San Antonio Wedding Photographers" instead since Google auto fills wedding "photographers" in search term. Question - Should I change my site title and some post / page title etc? What's the best way to do this? Thank you Soobum

Optimizing for two nearly identical keywords.
Hi Mozzers, So in one of my campaigns I'm trying to optimize for "Personal Trainer Minneapolis" and "Minneapolis Personal Trainer". Would the best tactic be: Develop and optimize two pages. One for each of these similar keywords. (Clearly not the best UX). or Try to optimize a single page for both. Thanks for your thoughts!
