LSI is Latent Semantic Indexing.

The easiest way of defining LSI is to simply say that itʼs how the Google spiders look at the relationships between words both on the page and also on a site overall to return a relevant result for the user related to the search term entered.

When the Google spiders come looking at your site they take a whole heap of information away with them in order to rank you, but when it looks at the keywords it looks for themes and it looks at the inbound and outbound links to and from other websites in order to decide on what your website is actually about.

Not sure what you mean by LSI list, but hope the explanation helps.

Ian.

I'm not an expert and Ian knows a lot more about google and the spiders than I do. From what I understand about LSI words are synonyms for the keywords you are using. For example If Cheap is your keyword then you can also use inexpensive or
low price. I hope this helps. Look at your list of keywords and see how they relate to the your keyword you are targeting.

I believe jgbama has got it right.

I haven't heard of it put that way before (LSI list).

However, I'm guessing you have been given a list of keywords that are relevant to promoting a particular product or whatever. You can now use them for getting organic and/or paid traffic via posts, articles, ppc etc.

If someone has another definition of a LSI list please jump in here.
