Download Free Software: Good Keywords

Good Keywords is free Windows software tool from Softnik Technologies for finding the ideal set of keywords for targeting your web pages. Use Good Keywords to find suitable keywords sets, create your meta tags, brainstorm product ideas, etc.

Keyword Search Suggestions & Related Terms

Good Keywords is for finding the common words people usually search for.

For example if you type ‘computer’ the Overture/GoTo search suggestion tool will tell you that during the last month the word ‘computer’ was searched 459549 (these numbers are not exact and are used as examples only) times at Overture.Com. Similarly ‘computer game’ was searched 302207 times. Also, given one word it will tell you all relevant combinations of that word.

(again this is based on actual searches done by people).

If the word you typed in not a common search term you will not get any results. It simply means that very few people actually searched for that word during the last month.

The Yahoo (different from the Overture tools, though Overture is Yahoo Search Marketing) and Ask components of Good Keywords will tell you the other combinations of keywords similar to the one you typed in (related searches). If these search engines have no suggestion it doesn’t mean that there are actually no search results.

The software is useful for researching how people search the web and then optimizing your own web pages so that more people find your web site.

Site Popularity

The Site Popularity Meter in Good Keywords is based on the Alexa (alexa.com) service. Alexa ranks web sites depending on the number of times Alexa users visit the site. While this is not exactly accurate it gives a good indication of how your site compares with that of your competitors. Since Alexa is a browser add-on toolbar for a Windows browser (IE), the Alexa statistics will not be accurate for sites that are normally visited by non IE surfers.

Now that FireFox is becoming popular, the Alexa accuracy is likely to be affected even more.

Please note that Good Keywords will not install Alexa in your system. It just connects to Alexa’s web based information page and retrieves the data about any domain you type in.

Link Popularity

The Link Popularity Meter displays the number of web sites that link to your site. This information is extracted from search engines (Altavista, MSN and Google).
