Member You - KeywordDiscovery VS Wordtracker - How Do They Compare?
Telemarketers come in all shapes and sizes and are constantly selling us all sorts of garbage. But they are not always selling us a service or a product, as sometimes they are persuading us to do something. Now normally telephone sales people try to get us to buy something but not always. Occasionally they try to get us change our opinion, re-enforce our decision or vote for something. How do they do this you ask?Well it is simple really, first they attempt to get us to fear the outcome if we fail to act. For instance if we vote for the Republicans then the Democrats will lose and that will mean Global Warming will destroy the Planet they will say. Or if we vote for Democrats then the Republicans will not get elected and the International Terrorists will come into our country and your family will be in grave danger.When selli
This is a crucial point as you could rely on Wordtracker for 100% of your keyword research and subsequently find that KeywordDiscovery showed a very different picture for the same core keywords!
KeywordDiscovery vs Wordtracker - Ease of Use
I found that KeywordDiscovery was much easier to jump into than Wordtracker. It has a simpler interface although its use of icons for various actions takes a little getting used to carrying out your research, saving projects etc is not too hard. It is also faster if you need to carry out quick keyword research.
With Wordtracker, the learning curve is a little steeper. For example, when I first started using it I did not realise that, when querying the search engines, you could only submit batches of 100 keyword phrases at a time. Consequently many of the keywords I saved in my baskets where not analysed! I also didn’t realise that significance of projects and their use for organising keywords. Overall I would say that KeywordDiscovery has a simpler interface and is easy to get started with but
Are you continually trying in the hope of earning the level of income you want from your Internet business activities? Is discouragement starting to creep into your thinking? Most people keep on trying in the hope of one day succeeding. However, you won’t succeed unless you address these two key factors.The first factor is "keep on trying". Some people do the same thing over and over again and never learn from the experience. It’s like continually running into a brick wall in the hope of eventually breaking through. Alternatively, they constantly join new affiliate programs or network marketing companies in the belief that this is the magic one to bring them riches. However, they never devote enough effort or attention to any one program to succeed in it.The second factor is "hope". For some people, they almost have a blind f
It is generally recognised that KeywordDiscovery and Wordtracker are the industry leaders when it comes to keyword research. Bear in mind that there are paid alternatives for keyword research out there such as NicheBot. In addition to this there is also a plethora of free keyword research tools available with Yahoo’s Overture tool being one of the best out there.
It is beyond the scope of this article to look at the main alternatives to KeywordDiscovery and Wordtracker but it is definitely a subject that I want to cover at a later date as they are important alternatives. The main focus in this article is KeywordDiscovery vs Wordtracker - what are their main data sources and how do they compare in use?
First off, I have to admit that I am biased. I have tried virtually all the keyword research tools, paid and free, known to man. After a lot of trial and error I have finally settled on KeywordDiscovery and Wordtracker for my day to day work as it is my sincere belief that they are the best tools out there!
KeywordDiscovery vs Wordtracker – where does the data come from?
The main advantage of KeywordDiscovery is the fact that it draws its data from a very large keyword database of over 32 billion searches compiled from over 180 search engines. This data is also compiled over a 12 month period so you get seasonal trends as well and this makes for a very large and comprehensive database.
This contrasts with Wordtracker which draws its keyword data from just Dogpile and Metacrawler which are two metacrawler search engines. These search engines aggregate search results in one place from a variety sources but the initial query is made in the metacrawler engine. Wordtrackers database is made up of over 300 million keyword phrases that users have typed into Dogpile and Metacrawler in the past 90 days.
This means that, in theory, you are much more likely to get accurate keyword data from KeywordDiscovery as is, statistically, drawing from a much larger keyword sample than Wordtracker. It also means that the data is smoother as it is looking at 365 days history rather than 90 days as Wordtracker does.
This “smoothness” also means that KeywordDiscovery caters very well for seasonal anomalies. For example, you might find that the keyword “christmas decorations” is heavily searched on if you ran a query in Wordtracker in November whereas KeywordDiscovery would show you that this may not be the case in April!
Paradoxically, this larger size of KeywordDiscovery’s data sample actually highlights a big advantage that Wordtracker has over its rival: it is widely believed that Wordtracker contains cleaner data as its source data form the metacrawlers is not plagued by automated queries carrying out keyword research etc.
This can be a serious problem with some keyword tools and can provide flawed results if you are researching a very popular or competitive niche as the results are not representative of organic or natural search! As KeywordDiscovery does not fully disclose where it obtains its search data from it is probably safer to assume that there is an element of data skew or “corruption” in KeywordDiscovery keyword results.
There is also a theory that Wordtracker is not very representative of the average internet user as it obtains its keyword data from just Dogpile and Metacrawler. Now the average internet user will probably never have heard of these search engines and just use the major ones such as Google, Yahoo and MSN.
This theory stems form the belief that users of Dogpile and Metacrawler are internet savvy and, as a result, their searches are not representative of the internet as a whole. This is not the case with KeywordDiscovery which draws it data from over 180 search engines so is much more likely to contain a sample of data that represents the internet as a whole.

Whether you’re designing a magazine layout or a personal web site, functionality, aesthetics, and - above all else - ease of use should comprise your primary concerns. Your reader must be able to find the information she needs, quickly and effortlessly. Locating the desired content is only half of the battle; once found, your audience must also be able to read your subject matter fluently and without difficulty.Type constitutes one of the dominant elements of most publications. Good typography is largely “invisible” typography; rather than drawing the reader’s attention away from the material, the type remains in the background, unseen and unnoticed. However, invisible typography does not necessarily entail boring typography. Quite the contrary; it takes both creativity and skill to make type attractive and pleasing to the eye

Recently an entrepreneur had considered the possibility of taking a new type of jogging light, which would not need a battery from concept to market. The product made sense because everyone who walks or jogs at night would love to have one and it has applications for security professionals, neighborhood watch groups, space and probably even military. The entrepreneur was a salesman in a large corporation. He was determined to sell the product via TV Infomercial. Of course in reviewing this I had some comments;“. . .Sales experience is important indeed. So is your stated experience being involved in start-ups, but doing the whole thing and making it work when your own butt is on the line is something else in the current business climate in this country.

Whether it's buying a car, asking for a pay rise, saying 'no' to a friend or renting an apartment - at some stage in our lives we all are going to need to know how to negotiate.

KeywordDiscovery vs Wordtracker - Conclusion
KeywordDiscovery and Wordtracker are both top quality keyword research tools. I actually believe that they are complementary as they draw their keyword data from different sources and present it differently. This is why I personally use both keyword research tools. I usually start my initial research with KeywordDiscovery as, due to their large database, they have a good variety of well trafficked keyword terms that originate of your seed keywords. Once I have these subsidiary terms I then fire up Wordtracker to do the real deep long tail keyword mining on these subsidiary terms. As you probably know, these long tail keyword phrases are gold!
The crucial thing is not to rely on just one keyword tool as both KeywordDiscovery and Wordtracker can provide very different results for the same set of core keywords due to the fact that they pull data from different sources. The key to success is to realise the strengths and weaknesses of each tool. Once this is done, intelligent application of both tools will bring you guaranteed success in your internet marketing whether it is via PPC or SEO!
