I was wondering if SEOmoz has any tools for finding longtail keywords
-
Hi all!
I'm new to the community and to SEOmoz, so there is definitely a chance I am misusing the already available tools. And I was sure to do a search for "longtail tools" before posting this question. But, does SEOmoz have any available tools for researching and suggesting longtail to target? ...similar to what HubSpots tool does
-
I don't know of one here at SEOmoz. I use the Google Adwords tool and WordTracker.

Very nice!

Thank you so much for the detailed and accurate responses. While your answers were very insightful --and really answered some questions I had not even known to ask-- I was really just trying to see if SEOmoz had a tool similar to HubSpot's that does all of that longtail research for you. I'm unsure if anybody is familiar with the tool I am referencing, but put simply, you enter the root and it returns a gambit of longtails that you should be targeting (calculated by volume of search and level of competition).

Here is what I do if I want to pull in traffic for a ton of long tail queries.
I decide upon the root keyword for the article and do research on that keyword to discover the RELATED topics that people are googling.
Let's say that my keyword is widgets and I use the google keyword tool and learn that people are searching for...
different types of widgets
who makes them
what they are made from
what color are they
history of widgets
etc. etc. etc.Then I write an article that addresses everything that everybody everywhere is asking for about widgets IN SUBSTANTIVE CONTENT.
Each of these subtopics for widgets is included on the page as subheadings
or
and described thoroughly with photos, illustrations, tables of data.
That is the start of a potentially killer page.
Google knows what people are asking for and they can recognize when content covers all of those details in a substantive, rich beyond text presentation.
I believe that people who have produced best-on-the web content that is substantive and complete will agree with me.
If you want an example look at a wikipedia page for a topic such as "Philadelphia".
An article like that can pull in fantastic traffic for the topic - even if you don't rank anywhere for "Philadelphia".

I would definitely suggest connecting your google analytics account and that'll give you a lot of keyword info.

I'm finding it difficult to make a decision on keywords to select to target for new site?
Hi, I'm doing keyword research for a small site and followed the standard keyword process of using Ahrefs and Google's keyword planner tools to see what keywords are being searched for my service. There are keywords that have a higher avg monthly search volume but they are aren't as relevant as ones that include the word cheap or affordable for example but those ones are only 300 monthly searches per month which seems very small for the main page of the site. Any advice what I should do in this scenario? Do I choose a more relevant keyword with lower search volume or go for one with much higher avg monthly search volume which is much more competitive?

A Solution to Keywords Being Grouped in Google Keyword Planner
Hi guys, I am trying to get search traffic for a list of keywords which I put together a few years ago for one of my clients, this was before Google made changes to their Keyword Planner. When I am adding the list into Google Keyword Planner it is "grouping" a number of the keywords/phrases together, and therefore removing 13 of the keywords from the original list of 59 keywords. Is there a way around this so I can get search volume for the original list, and not the cut down one? I am specifically using Google Keyword Planner as I want to get search volume for a number of specific locations in the UK. Any comments/feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Jack.

Worried about keyword cannibalization
I've been reading a lot about keyword cannibalization and I'm worried that some of my sub pages may be pulling rank from my home page. If I'm trying to rank my home page for the keyword phrase "blue widget manufacturing" and I have sub pages with the titles "blue manufacturing services", "blue widget enginnering", "medical widget manufacturing" is it possible that those pages could be causing me to commit keyword cannibalization? I'm looking at a lot of the results for my keyword phrase and they don't seem to have additional pages with similar keyword phrases. Wondering if I should change my titles so they don't look as optimized.

Ranking Reports for New Keywords
I added new keywords to my campaign. They do appear in my ranking report. But I am not getting any ranking data on the new keywords. It looks like they are yet to be crawled. For my initial set of keywords, i see the specific rankings in each search engine and for some it says "not in the top 50." For the new ones all I see are zeros. Will the ranking data eventually appear?

Not Set Keywords
Hi, we have recently been working on our site's keywords and we have seen an increase in traffic. As I monitor my keywords, I see that the Not Set keyword has increased a great deal and now become my top keyword.
