Hi,
On what basis does the Competitor analyze the keywords?
I believe by Organic Keywords.
Hi,
A keyword search returns a list of keywords sorted in descending order. Further analysis can be performed to help qualify keywords.
keyword analyzing also show your keyword ranking & position on Google page.
You can use these 2 tools also for the keyword research: http://www.google.com/trends & http://www.google.com/insights/search/#
It depends upon the website you have. For eg if you have football website then search for football related keywords like football, soccer, fifa etc. Find the apt keywords in Google keyword tool. This tool too suggest you more primary n secondary keywords.
@ponsankari… Can you guess me…???
I’ve been doing a lot of research on this lately, and I’ve read on several forums that Google is no longer even paying attention to keywords. They say that they haven’t for some time now. They still pay attention to title/description/tags, but keywords are out. Does this mean, then, that keyword density is a moot point?
I think “altax” have better explained. It depend upon websites do you have.
no, it means they are totally disregarding <META name=“KEYWORDS” … >
keywords in the actual web page (which factor into keyword density) are a separate issue
Explanation on something mentioned here:-
They are paying attention to Meta Description tag, but it won’t have any effect in your rankings in search engines:-

However it’s a great thing to have, as it increases clickthroughs.
rhysboy84 is correct.
Google ignores both <meta name=“descriptions”> and <meta name=“keywords”> elements from a ranking perspective.
However, the <meta name=“description”> element is still VERY important. If you optimize your meta description element properly with your URL’s targeted keyword(s) and a call to action, not only will it be shown more often in the search results as the Google snippet but it will also drastically increase your URL’s click-thru-rate when it is shown in the organic results. To optimize the meta description, you really need to understand [URL=“http://www.canonicalseo.com/google-snippets-in-search-results/”]how Google chooses their search result snippets.
As R937 indicated, keyword density is still a ranking factor. But it carries MUCH less weight in the overall ranking algorithm than it once did. One reason is simply that there are far more ranking factors that Google is looking at these days than there were 5-10 years ago when keyword density was important. Another is that they also weigh that one ranking factor much lower than they once did because of how it was abused in the past by simply repeating the same keyword phrase over and over on the page to get a high density and therefore high rankings. If you write naturally, your keyword density will typically end up being 1-2%. Even at 5% density you’re repeating the same keyword every 20th word which is going to read like total spam. Write your content for users, and don’t worry about density.
if you examine your last paragraph, it contains 143 words
you use the word “density” 6 times, which is 4.2%
which is very close to your pulled-out-of-the-air 5% number
and yet your last paragraph does ~not~ read like “total spam” does it
And I’m sure if you pick a particular sentence it will be even higher, or better yet… a particular phrase, my density could be 50 or higher%. But if you’re writing a post or article without SEO in mind… just writing naturally as you would speak… you’ll "generally "end up with much lower densities for the entire post/article (not a particular paragraph, sentence or phrase), typically in the 1-2% range… maybe 3. The real test should be does it sound natural, not spammy.
