Lynn,
You are spot on. Choosing the right buying modifiers can make all the difference between getting a flood of traffic, and a flood of traffic that buys or at least clicks on an affiliate link and sets a cookie. (although with actions such as Amazon’s recent one on affiliate tracking, it may not be easy to get an affiliate sale much longer, as other online retailers will soon follow suit if it works for Amazon)

Interestingly enough, one of my old sites ranks near the top of page one on Bing and Yahoo (duuh) for one of the terms in your example, and I do still get buyers from it.

Articles are very good and easy to understand. You always use wordtracker but have you ever worked with other keyword tools? Is site size a factor referring to number of pages? Some people can throw out a few splash pages and claim to get a small fortune from them. I always read that content is key. Women do most of the buying. I have observed many women shopping online and noticed they don’t read, just look at the items, description and price. Google seems to be tbe the only one reading content.

My primary goal is to get people to click on the site I’m promoting. In the past I accomplished this to a certain degree but found that it was the companies site, not me, who did not get the conversion. So do I need to have pages of products on my site, is there a way to further promote the companies site for better conversions?

Hello Lynn, thanks for the keyword modifiers. What would be your numbers, to decide if it is worth using that keyword? I have found at times a large discrepancy between the free wordtracker tool and Google’s keyword tool, as much as a factor of 10.

Thanks for the WordTracker idea. I usually use the Google Key Word thing which is also free. But It will be interesting to compare the two.

You’re right, it would be very difficult for a newcomer to look for a long tailed keywords because he lacks experience and increase in competition. However, if we only use our common sense or place ourselves and follow the mindset of every possible buyer or consumer, we’ll surely get some long tailed keywords with low competition.

I agree with your information, but the times are coming when it won’t be that easy to find such “easy pickins” – more and more newcomers and experienced marketers target these long terms, both with SEO tactics and PPC advertising, and you got to admit it’s not that easy to find those easy long-tails any more.
