		<description>You need to look at the global search volume ~ I think we&#039;ve talked about this before. The global is the average for the last 12 months. That is the one that is important. I don&#039;t even really look at the local ~ it just shows you how many people searched the previous month ~ not really all that important in the big scheme of things.</description>

		<description>Hello,

I know keyword research can be fun. I do like searching around on the google keyword tool. There is lots to find. The problem I am having is that I can find a whole keyword phrase Such as &quot;How to cure toenail fungus&quot; (not using this) I will find that sometimes the local search volume is low and the global is higher. But when I do an exact search for the above phrase for example I get the exact global. My problem is though I do not know which is more important &quot;global&quot; or &quot;local&quot; because there are ideas when there is a high/low local and high/low global. Am I suposed to combine different keyword ideas from both local and global searches. Sometimes its confusing. But, maby this is something like a feeling or combination of different words to capture both the global an local traffic</description>

		<description>Just go to &lt;b&gt;squidoo&lt;/b&gt; and in the search box put your keywords in quotes. If there is already a lens with your exact keyword check to see if the url is available with dashes ~ if it isn&#039;t then I would look for something else or else look for another keyword for the product you want to feature. There are a million products out there ~</description>

		<description>How to check to see if there are other Squidoo lenses for that specific keyword that I have chosen? 

I don&#039;t know if i have done it right? I put the kw in the &quot;search&quot; space in squidoo with &quot;&quot; and search.

Most of the times there are so many lenses having the exact kw or slightly the same, what must I do in this case? 

Thanks</description>

		<description>With keyword sniping it&#039;s not only the search volume that counts but the amount of adcost and how they all work together to see if it&#039;s going to be a profitable keyword. My ebook &lt;a href=&quot;http://keywordresearchrevealed.com&quot;&gt;Keyword research revealed&lt;/a&gt; really focuses on finding keywords for keyword sniping sites. 

For niche domination I would stick with the numbers I use for christmas cash lenses ~ 1000 searches monthly under 30 total PR for the 10 sites on the front page of Google for the main keyword ~ you may find it difficult to find super related keywords all with search volume that high so it just kind of depends. You want to find search volume but you don&#039;t want to spend your entire life doing keyword research or you won&#039;t ever get any real work done. :)</description>

		<description>Hi Jackie,

I just love your blog and the information you provide. Thanks. So much help. When you are looking at search volume for a niche blog, a good volume would be greater than 300. What are the search volumes you look for with respect to keyword sniping or niche domination? I think you would need much higher search volume.</description>

		<description>What did you put in the search box to get that? It may have been that your lens was not yet indexed (which it is now). I&#039;ve gotten that sometimes when I put in the lens url but it&#039;s not indexed yet. 

You know that when you&#039;re checking for rank in the search engine you just put in your keywords ~ not the lens url yes? 

About linking ~ I&#039;d download the mindmap and start at the beginning of the linking section  and go from there. There&#039;s no right/wrong way to do it. Links are links. It&#039;s just a matter of what you can be consistent with and do regularly ~ so find a couple things that you can do and then do them.</description>

		<description>Jackie,

Can you answer a couple of questions for me?  I was trying to check my ranking for my lens about &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.squidoo.com/shark-vacuum-cleaner&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Shark Vacuum Cleaners&lt;/a&gt;, (Thanks for the hint about the linking in your last post), and found that on the page it showed up on in the search results, it was displayed as shown below.  It’s like Google somehow picked up the associated lenses to my Christmas campaigns but I’m not sure how.  Is this a problem?  Is there any way to fix it if it should be changed?

1.	Shark Vacuum Cleaner
... Diamond Floating Heart Pendant • Klipsch Quintet sl Home Theater System Set of Five Black • Dansko Nursing Shoes • Bob Double Stroller ...
www.squidoo.com/shark-vacuum-cleaner - 21 hours ago

Next, when it comes to backlinking, is there a manner you have found that gets the sites to a top ranking quicker such as sticking with more Web 2.0 postings verses bookmarking or free ad blogs verses Web 2.0, articles verses free ad blogs?  Or, is it a combination of all that does the trick?

Maybe I just need to test that process.  Any suggestions on how I would go about doing that.  It seems that as I continue with this career that would be good stuff to know.  Thanks.

		<description>Yeah, I know that and I did click on it to lengthen the time and I&#039;m still getting &quot;Retrieving&quot; when I click on OCI. Don&#039;t know what&#039;s up with that!    Oh well, I&#039;ll keep trying!  :)

Thanks!
