What do broad match keywords represent?
-
Exact match is perfectly easy for me to get my head around - broad match, not so much! Take the phrase, "removing blueberry stains." Is the broad match data for this that I'm seeing in the Google keyword tool for searches that involve any of these particular words, in any phrase, in any order - just so long as they're all there?
Any help with this concept would be much appreciated.

If it said broad 10,000 then yes

Thanks for this, but I was referring specifically to the search query aspect. What does it mean, search-wise, if "removing blueberry stains" receives 10,000 hits a month... Does it mean that there have been that many search queries (and ONLY that many, as a ballpark) which contain all of the words "removing," "blueberry" and "stains" in any particular order, and amongst any other number of words?

Yes
if some one types "removing blueberry stains" and nothing else, it is an exact macth
phrase
when removing blueberry stains wear safety galsses
broad
I dropped the blueberries while removing my safety glasses and got stains on my pants

Ranking a homepage for keywords
We recently found a handful of keywords we would like our homepage to rank for (for example - customer experience). On our homepage we have articles (4-5 posted daily) that feature the keywords we are targeting (one being customer experience). How do the keywords we are using in our daily articles that are posted to the homepage affect the overall keyword ranking for the homepage? In other words do the keywords used in the articles (title, first 2-3 paragraphs, meta description, etc.) all roll up/build up to the homepage's keywords or how does that work?

Google Keyword Tool
Hello, Is the Google Keyword Tool the only reliable source for stats on keyword search volume on Google? The tool returns "no data" results for keywords I would expect to have some, if not much, search volume. I would like to cross-check these results, if possible. Thanks!
