You now how to find keywords for your website, right? You know about Google external ad tool, WordTracker, trillian and seobook.
But there are more easily and very targeted keyword suggestions to be found.
The Search Engines themselves will show you what they think are the most relevant keywords…
It is like looking into their database and finding what they think is relevant for you visitors.
You just have to now how and where to look.
I did some research for a new page of a new site to check out the Singer Anastacia
Google Suggests
First Google, as this is one of the biggest engines, their you can use Google Suggests to find extra keywords.
You just type in you target keyword and you instantly get a drop-down box that shows you related search suggestions.
Yahoo homepage
You have to use the search box on the Homepage of Yahoo to get the next items to show.
here it works the same way as with Google Suggests, just type in you search word and you get a related items drop-down box.
Live.com Search
Microsoft's Search engine Live.com also has suggestions for your keywords, but the just show up after you did the search.
In the results page you will find a nice listing on the right hand sidebar.
And they throw in some songs suggestions to take into you list..
Ask.com Suggestions
Yes, you can find the best suggestions on Ask…
They give you a complete left sidebar with all kind off suggestions, even other related items…
You can find extra words to target in the “narrow your search” items.
Find other artists to include in extra pages to build somewhat of a themed site with “Related Names”
Find extra keywords in the “Expand your Search” items.
Af course you will have your own favorite, but for my the Ask results pages was on of the best to use…
You could try the more.. link as well….
Naturally you have to combine the results from all the resources you can get to come to what you think are the best keywords to target, but that's what makes it so nice to do Search Engine Optimization.. finding new ways to get relevant visitors to your websites!
Thanks, I will have to play with this for a while, but it looks promising!

WoW! nice post.
I did not know that the search engines can be of such a great help. I must say, they have made keyword research really easy.
A great news for all search engine optimizers.
Google suggests is a favorite feature of Google for me, but you definitely come up with some weird stuff in there. For keyword research it can be helpful though.
