Keyword Research Services - Can They Save You Time And Money?

If you aren’t a guru then you may (like me) find keyword research difficult. I can find lots of them. I have a problem finding good ones.

I always believed that Google’s keyword tool gave highly accurate results. After all, they should be giving out accurate info. Well, it turns out the figures aren’t always right.

The results you see are not always correct, far from it. It would have been correct at some point though. The answer to this particular enigma came to me almost accidentally.

I homed in on a key phrase with roughly 5000 competing websites. I was pretty sure I could get a good result with that keyword. I started banging articles out left right and centre. Hundreds in fact.

Soon after I noticed Google telling me there was about 9000 competing pages now. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I started to think thinks weren’t going to be easy as I thought. It turned out that my articles were showing on these sites and ranking for the keyword.

What I’m saying is that I would have left it alone had I saw over 9000 competing sites. A lot of these sites were ranking with my article so I had a lot of competition but most of it was my own articles. Not a bad situation to be in if you ask me.

I knew I wasn’t going to get lucky all the time so I decided to try a keyword research service. I liked the idea of good keywords being delivered to me every day. I had figured that the daily cost against how much work I would save is value for my money.

Travis Sago was offering a keyword research service which I decided to try. Let’s face it, Travis is THE bum marketer. And I like bum marketing, I like it a lot.

If I can get a keyword or two in my in box each day then that saves me valuable time. At least a two hour saving. And a couple hours work is pretty valuable to me. If I put the time saved up against the daily cost it shows clearly there’s value to be had.

Outsourcing, outsourcing, outsourcing. Seems to be all you hear from the gurus of internet marketing. I see this as nothing more than that. I’m paying someone else to research my keywords. I reckon that’s outsourcing.

If you want to hear about my trial of the Instacash service get yourself over to my website. Earlier I mentioned that I ended up with thousands of articles on websites for a certain keyword. I’ll show you how I did that at my site.
