Using keywords on websites is not optional in the world of online marketing. You want to create a list of keywords to focus your website content around. If you’ve already formed a starter list, you could have a potential goldmine of words already in hand. You won’t know, however, until you have run them through some keyword tools to analyze their potential.
Fortunately, you will not have to run out and buy any additional software to get this job done. When it comes to using keywords on websites, most of what you need to analyze those lists can be found by using free online keyword tools or ones available for a small fee.
Many online keyword tools offer both a free and a paid version along with a free trial of the paid version. If a free trial is offered, check it out to see if it works well for you.
Here is a list of a few free online keyword tools for your website content to help you out:
1. Google Free Online Keyword Tool – Google also offers a free online keyword tool for researching keywords. As the currently top rated search engine, many feel that this tool is all that they need to find the best keywords for their website content as it is the standard that most measure against.
Keep in mind that the results you receive are based on the Google search engine database and not on combined results from additional search engines as are many independent keyword tools.
In addition, Google offers you the ability to check estimated traffic results and CPC for your keywords with its traffic estimator tool.
2. Wordtracker – There are many various combinations of words that can be used to produce results from your website content. Most people would be unable to think of all of these various combinations without assistance. This is where a software program such as Wordtracker comes into play.
With Wordtracker, you are able to feed in a list of keyword possibilities that you have gathered one at a time. The software will then search its database and return to you all possible related word combinations and the number of searches each has received.
With the free version of Wordtracker, you are limited to the first 100 results, while the paid version will serve up all of the results that it finds. Even with the limited return on the free version, you may find a few new keyword combinations that you had not thought of.
Wordtracker is currently offering in addition to its free trial, a monthly subscription for $59.00 US per month or a yearly subscription at $329.00 US.
3. SEO Book Keyword Suggestion Tool – Sign up for a free account to gain access to the SEO Book Keyword Tool. This free online keyword tool is based on the Wordtracker API that delivers a rough estimate of keyword search results to help you in your keyword searches. In addition, you will find a few surprises, such as results for news, directories, blogs etc that may also catch this tool’s interest based on the keyword you enter.
SEO Book Keyword Tool gives you a look at your keyword research from a slightly different perspective and includes links to other potential keyword sources.
4. KeywordSpy – The free version of KeywordSpy allows you to receive 20 results for the keyword you are researching. In addition to the keyword list, you are also given an overview of the keyword you used in the search covering the number of bidders for that particular keyword, the current CPC and search volume. The listed keywords also include the current search volumes to be expected and the current CPC for each. The free version of Keyword Spy will also show you the top 10 related ads, PPC competitors and organic competitors.
KeywordSpy offers 3 paid packages. Their basic research package, which is recommended for individual online marketers, is currently priced at $89.95 US per month and features a daily limit of 2,000 queries with unlimited results from their database, which is, updated daily.
Their keyword tracking package, recommended for mid-level PPC companies and individuals, also runs at $89.95 US per month and is used to track keyword performance in 3 search engines across 30 countries. Package 3, which is recommended for multi-national companies and corporations, is a combination of the basic research and tracking packages and is currently priced at $139.95 US per month.

5. Wordstream – Last, but certainly not least, we have the Wordstream keyword tool. Wordstream uses a bit of a different methodology behind their keyword suggestion tool. Using a database of over a billion popular keywords that are being constantly updated, the free version of this keyword tool will return the first 100 results along with the estimated total results available, a relative volume indicator and a sub-list of related keywords for you to search on.
In addition, Wordstream offers a free trial of their SEO package that currently runs at $49.00 US per month. If you are interested, they also have what they call their PPC package that currently runs at $299.00 US per month for those that would like a tool that combines keyword research with PPC ad creation and tracking.
