Some excellent tips Mandy. Once a campaign is up and running, I also like to look at search queries for new keyword opportunities. Thought I’d share an article I wrote yesterday on identifying new keywords themes from Google’s search query report, which your readers may find interesting:

Thank you for the excellent post. I haven’t really checked google suggest and wonder wheel, but I’ll make sure to do so.

Bharati, that’s a great point about suggest!

Al, yes – I forgot about Webmaster tools for a second. Also really valuable 🙂

Christopher, glad to have been of help 🙂

I think the “Google AdWords Keyword Tool” and “Google Suggest” are great tools for SEO, too. I haven’t use the other three tools but I think I will do this in the future 🙂

I like the wheel thing Google has. Also Analytic is a good one but webmaster tool that you didn’t mention can also give you good keyword ideas.

But good post overall thanks.

Hi Mandy,

What a cool, simple and straight forward Post.

I vouch for Google suggest and the Google wonder wheel.

The reason being that Google instant has made the searcher just go by what Google is suggesting. Hence, I think that this is a more reliable tool atleast from the SEO perspective.
