Keyword tools are used to identify what words people are using when searching for something on the Internet. There are free keyword tools available. Google and Yahoo both have keyword tools that are free and are probably the most popular. Most other PPC search engines have some form of free keyword tools. These keyword tools allow you to glean general information on keywords. Free keyword tools also are limited in the scope of their responses, on what types of research and reports you can generate.

Why You Need Keyword Tools ?

Here is a general example of how keyword tools can be used to your advantage. Pretend you have a bass fishing guide service. You could build your site around the term - fishing guide and compete with 14,400,000 other responses. Using keyword tools you can find that people are searching for bass fishing guide and have to compete with 1,390,00 other responses.

When people are ready to buy online they usually search with very specific terms. This is where keyword tools also benefit.
