SERPS + Keywords/Phrases

[David]

Hello,

Just wondering, what types of keywords I should be focusing on for DLSuite?

Right now, I am emphasizing on "free forum icons". Would you search that?

Thanks.

David have a look at Google's keyword tool. It can provide a lot of very useful keyword suggestions and details on how many people are searching for particular keywords.

Post back with your thoughts, once you've had a look at it and I will do my best to help you with it.

Thanks for the link. It proved quite helpful.

After analyzing the keywords, I could see the most related to my site were:
-free icons
-web icons
-free buttons
-forum icons
They all had substantial to excellent hits.

The one I had been focusing on: free forum icons, had 720 for the Global Monthly Search Volume so it isn't as popular. If I removed "free" then I got a better search volume of 9,900.

Glad it helped David, good luck with it.

Just one question, would "free forum icons" be something you'd search for?

Personally I wouldn't. I'd be more likely to search for terms like "smilies", "avatars" & "forum graphics". But I'm over 35 and people in their teens and early 20's might be more likely to search for terms like that.
