Word tracking numbers

[farmnwife]

What kind of numbers should I be looking for when researching words with word tracker? Is 100 enough? 1,000? 10,000? For someone just starting out where do you start? I understand that certain words like "buy" and "order" along with the niche have a higher quality search but where is a good place to start from?
thanks

Judi,
I personally don't look at the Wordtracker numbers all that much because there is a time and place for everything. And I think you'll notice in the blog posts from Lynn that I share below that she's all over the board as well when it comes to phrases.

SEO Content: Choosing Keywords Phrases

Web Page Optimization

Hope this helps!

I think it also depends on the site you are trying to build. If it will be offering physical products (even if it is through affiliate links) then qualifiers like buy or cheapest etc are good to keep in mind.

If you are offering information with a plan to monetise through adsense, say, then those qualifiers may not be so relevant.
