Google Insights for Search helps SEOs and SEMs

by Gert Mellak on August 11, 2008

A few days ago Google released a BETA of its new tool “Google Insights for Search” – looks really great, just enter one or more words/phrases people might search for, and you get not only country- or region-based statistics about the expressions you entered, but also hints on what else might people search for in this area. I just tried with “web analytics” and “seo” and got the following results:

Google Insights for Search

Google Insights for Search 1

Google Insights for Search

Google Insights for Search 2

And the best: if you don’t enter anything and just click on “Search”, this tool will show you what people in the area you selected look for in general – should be great to do research on where to head to with future projects. Not only the seo industry will benefit greatly, it will also come in handy for marketing research.
