Using Market Samurai for Keyword Research

Before you can create a profitable website, it’s important to figure out what terms you can rank for in Google.

This will prevent you from spending months creating a website based around a term, just to find out you targeted a highly competitive keyword (Such as “best diet”) that will take you a huge amount of resources and time to rank for.

If you had the time and money, you could, but in most cases we want to start seeing a profit up front, blaze new trails, and tap into markets that aren’t being tapped into, where money is being left on the table (ie. work smarter, not harder).

I downloaded the trial version of Market Samurai to do some research on a niche website I’ve been building, and I just realized I wrote a whole ebook and created a 15 post website without doing this important research. I’ll most likely never rank high for that specific keyword that’s in my domain name, so I might have wanted a huge amount of time- but perhaps the website will still be salvageable by targeting less competitive longer-tail keywords. Lesson learned.

Here are some important videos that explain how to use Market Samurai, that I’ve been watching:
