Get article ideas here

I thought it would be nice to give a bit more detailed explanation of how I use the keyword tools out there to make my articles SEO friendly.

First up is the free keyword tool from Wordtracker. It’s extremely easy to use, and like I said, it’s free.

Just go here and type in a word you’re thinking of using and it returns the top related searches.

I like to use this tool when I have a broad idea on a new article, for example, when I want to write something anti virus related, but I’m not sure of the exact subject.

Check out this screenshot to the left. I typed in anti virus and it returned some related searches, as we can see there are some real good ones here, and by good ones I mean eHow article title friendly.

At this point you could click on one of the results and get more detailed search information.  This is sometimes a good thing to do if the original keyword is a bit too broad.  Either way, if you see more than one result that interests you, write the other ones down so you can come back to them later.

Use this keyword tool for ideas. For the best results though you need to use this in combination with Google Adwords keyword tool and Google Search, as we’ll see next.
