Making use of the "Googol" and "Googel" keywords

By Zigfred Diaz

With the help of another blogger, I discovered two interesting keywords these are no other than "derivatives" of Google itself or should I say where "Google" was derived from. Those key words are Googel and Googol.

Bloggers and webmaster often tell us of the value of keywords. The reason for such is because it will bring them more traffic. More traffic means more more chances of people clicking your ads or buying your products. The kind of commercial activities that a blogger or webmaster is involved in does not matter. Whether it is pay per click, pay per impression pay per visit, pay per whatsoever or selling affiliate products, what is most important thing is the traffic. The equation for online business is very simple. More traffic means more money.

Traffic from three of the world's biggest search engines, Google, Yahoo and MSN is the most important thing that a blogger or webmaster should consider. This further ensures that they are making money online.

When somebody googles a word they click the first spot and if they get what they are looking for they loose interst in all others. If they don't they simply move down to the next on the list. That is the reason it must be made sure your website or blog is in the first 3 pages or if possible in the first top 10 in the search engine's first page. If your website is on the 100th page, then most likely people making a search engine search will not go to your site.

The key is to make sure that your blog or website sustains a high volume of traffic always. One way is to make sure that your blog or website is competing for the right and proper keywords.

Selecting the proper keyword is not easy as it may sound. There are good keywords but unfortunately they have a lot of competition. To know this just type a keyword in google and look at the upper right hand portion of of the page. For example the keywords "making money online" produces more than 18 million results. Competing for this keyword is really a tough one.

It is not enough that you ensure that the keywords you choose does not have a lot of competition. You must make sure that such keywords have a high search volume. This means they are being searched by several number of people. This is to make sure that all your hard work for optimizing a keyword will truly count. You can achieve this by going to google trends and typing the keyword. If after typing the keyword it produces a graph, then said keyword is one with a high search volume.

To sum it up you must opt for what bloggers call as "high-trend but low-dense keyword."

Going back to the main topic, Googel is one high-trend but low-dense keyword that bloggers must take advantage of. If you look at the graph in google trends it has sustained a huge and increasing number of searches since 2004. This shows that it is a high-trend keyword. It is considered as low dense sense as of the time of this writing it is only referenced by 860,000 blogs or websites. In other words competing for this keyword is not so difficult.

On the other hand, Googel's twin, "Googol" may not have a very impressive graph in google trend. But the the fact that it made it in google trends shows that it is a high-trend keyword. What's good about it though is that it's density is lower by half than that of Googel. As of the time of this writing only 468,000 blogs and websites has been mentioning it.

So go right ahead ! Exploit and optimize the keywords Googel and Googol in your blog or website right now !
