By AffiliatesCenterBlog On February 16, 2012 Under Keyword Research

We have an easy way to find long tail keywords for articles today and when you take a look at this you’ll probably wonder why you are chasing expensive keyword tools in coming up with results.

Don’t get me wrong; there’s nothing wrong with expensive keyword tools although too many folks will try and use a bunch of them with very little result. My tip? If you are using a keyword tool find one you like and stick with it.

Anyways, how to find those long tail keywords without the expense except a little time?

We have shown you this trick a few times before and I want to say again that in Google, too many online marketers fail to realize what a great resource they have at their fingertips for free. Steve Shaw at SubmitYourArticle.com always has excellent tips for article marketers but the following can be applied to product promotion search as well.

Steve shows you in quick time using the Google search box how to find long tail keywords including supply and demand. In other words, how popular they are and competing pages. It’s pretty uncanny and once again, it’s all for free.

Often using a phrase like, ‘how to,’ together with one of your main keywords can help you discover suitable long-tail phrases which can form suitable article titles too. This is ideal for article marketing purposes as the title is ready-made for you and is already optimized for the keyword in question, i.e. the title is the keyword and can’t get much better optimized than that, of course.

So let’s see an example of how this could work.

What’s my favorite keyword tool? Steve mentions a couple of tools which has been around a long time and still work very well. I use Micro Niche Finder but the key here is, find one you like and when you do, stick with it as long as it continues to work.

But if you don’t want to spend money, what you have just learned is perfect. To be honest, I almost use this method and some variations to it exclusively now. There’s almost no need to go and run them through a keyword tool.
