What Are The Best Metrics To Look For When Searching For Awesome Keywords?
So let’s talk about high quality keywords for a minute. High quality keywords in reality are the ones people are searching for that relate to some sort of problem they have, or to give them some sort of pleasure. If you can deliver on what people are searching for, you have hit a gold mine. You give them valuable content and then point them into the right direction. You will see what I mean after you have entered your search above in our free keyword generator.
Oh, you haven’t done that yet? Go ahead and give it a try…
This, of course, can be an affiliate product that satisfies their search even more than the free content that you have provided for them. This is the core of affiliate marketing. But, it starts with high quality keywords and in order to find these keywords we need a set of good metrics. They are as follows:
Monthly Searches –
This represents the number of searches for a given keyword. Keep in mind, these numbers are commulative. In other words, don’t go after a huge number. Not only because of the higher competition, but because they are additive in that you will be writing many posts and pages and the number of possible traffic adds up cumulatively. I believe if you target over 50 searches a month you will be doing well. The more the better, however, you also want low competition. We will discuss this on another metric below.
KQI (Keyword Quality Index)-
The KQI quickly indicates how easy or difficult it will be to rank for a particular keyword phrase. It is distinguished by color, green being great, yellow being OK, or red being poor. It is intended to give you a quick indicator to let you know whether you should continue with the research on that particular keyword phrase.
QSR (Quoted Search Results)-
This is the most awesome metric of all! This metric gather information from all the search engines and literally tells you the exact number of competing pages that are also trying to rand for that exact keyword phrase you are. Under 400 is considered good, 300 being an ideal result. So in conjunction with monthly searches of over 50 and a QSR of less than 300, you stand a good change of ranking on the first page of Google (and other search engines). Keep in mind that there are millions of these keyword phrases available so the opportunity for online success is huge when you have a tool like this available to you.
SEO (1 to 100)
This is a numerical score based on traffic and competition. The higher the score, the more likely you will rank for this keyword on the first page. The closer to 100 the better. If you can get on the first page of Google you can certainly make money online. Plain and simple. It is that easy when you have the right tools. This is super efficient research in action my friends.

Your very welcome Vicki! I will try my best to provide good sound value in the area of affiliate marketing. I love this industry and am willing to share what works for me. Anyone can do this stuff if they dedicate their time, focus and energy in the right direction. Thanks again for your feedback.
Thanks so much for sharing. Keyword research can be tricky for someone just starting out so this tool is awesome. I’ve heard of Jaaxy, but never really used it so I have a quick question… I often struggle to come up with keywords, so does Jaaxy make suggestions on possible keywords based on the phrase you originally put in?
Hi Shane, thanks for stopping by my website. To answer your question, yes, Jaaxy has a feature called “brainstorming” which gives you more suggestions based on the phrases you type in. They give you a full page of these brainstorming keyword phrases for each idea you type in. I use this feature quite a bit and have uncovered some really good keyword phrases that have a great number of searches with low competition. Even in niches that are typically considered high competition.
I never really understood the use of keywords until I started learning about online marketing. It’s really the heart of it all. If you can find a good keyword that gets you ranked, you’re going to get traffic. I think I still struggle finding the right keywords. Or, maybe I’m in a niche that’s too competitive. Thanks for some great information.
I Vic, I couldn’t agree more. Once you get ranked for a good keyword you will get great traffic and the best part is that traffic will keep coming in. As far as finding the right keywords though you might try the brainstorming feature offered through Jaaxy. One thing I do is type in my general keyword phrase into Google, scroll down to the bottom of the page and look for a few long tailed keyword phrases that Google offers. Then, I take those phrases and plug them into Jaaxy and come up with keyword phrases that are highly searched with lower competition.
