What Are The Most Searched Keywords?

By Reynaldi Baki

If you want to drive traffic to your articles, your blogs, or your online enterprise, you will most likely need to conquer the world of keywords. For this reason, understanding what the most searched keywords are; is all important.

However, what sounds like a beautifully simple thing; is anything but a lot of the time.

It would be true to say that there are certain keywords that always remain popular; "money", "job", and "sex" being just three. However, whilst quite easy to work into blogs and articles; they may not be entirely relevant.

Therefore, it is better to look at trends. Currently of course, words regards the environment will be amongst the most searched keywords. Then there are periodical searches and the leading news item of the day for example. But these are just trends, and will change.

Therefore, understanding current affairs, public opinion and the human mind are just as vital to your work. It is also necessary to understand your target audience of course; who will have their own list of certain words.

It is here that companies, individuals and software houses could help. Using applied systems, they can generate keywords for you to target; be these the most used, or the least interrogated. They can also monitor trends, and work on adaptations.

You, as the writer or marketer, can then take this information and work them into your article, into your press releases, and place them at strategic areas in your blog.

However, as good as these services can be to help isolate the most searched keywords, you have the ultimate responsibility. Irrelevant content, poorly constructed articles and nonsensical crap will only deter people. Traffic is good of course; but repeat traffic is better; which in turn leads to a strong reputation and new traffic. And so the cycle continues.
