"On the local keyword front, go with your gut. How would you search for that business. I find that most of the time there is nothing in adwords but that does not mean the phrase is not searched 100k times per month, it only means that no one is buying ads for that term.
National or state level terms/searches can give you and idea of what people are looking for."
Excellent point.
For instance i was looking up a keyword and it said low competition but when i put the phrase in "keyword" it showed over 2 million results! how is that low competition.
Google adwords tool is ok, but can be deceptive, what other keyword tools software would you recommend?
I have one site that ranks #5 in Google with a competition of 38 million when you google it.
I don't use any other methods than the one I explain in the original post personally.
