Keyword research is the process of finding the best words and phrases that will give you the best possible SERP (Search Engine Results Page) position for terms search by Google users.
When a user uses a search engine to find pages about a particular topic, they would use some common words to search that will describe the topic. You and I need to try and foresee what those terms might be and use them in our copy.
Here are some free tools that will help you.
Your Brain
Don’t underestimate the power on your own intelligence. Your brain is the best tool you have. In fact it could well be the only tool you actually need.
The reason why your brain is the best tool, because you already know what keywords you should be using. This is because you and I are a regular users of search engines, so we know the process.
You need to ask yourself the question, if I were researching this topic what words would I use to find valuable information on it.
Reference Sources and Dictionaries
When using your brain, you could enlist the help of some resource material. We were taught at school to make use of things like dictionaries, thesauruses etc. The internet has all these powerful tools for you to use right at the click of a button.
Google Keyword Suggestion tools
Google, the king of search. You want to rank well on Google. So why not use the tools that they supply.
Other Keyword Suggestion Tools
Besides Google there are a bunch of highly qualified individuals and companies who specialise in SEO and keyword research. Many of them have made their own unique tools available to the general public to use.
Firefox is probably the best browser used by many geeks and other professionals. What makes Firefox so great is that there are thousands of add ons developed to make your browsing so much better.

These set of tools help you get related keywords as you brainstorm your niche or subject.
Social Network trending
Social networks is the buzz word of the decade. Everyone and anyone has a social network account somewhere. They chat about trivial things, but about things that are close to their heart. Want to know what is happening in Social Media. Use some of these tools, then blog about it.
