The difference is 13, or i should use the smallest number between the 2 values? “That is if 10 results have the keyword in their title and 23 have the keyword in their anchor text, I will assume that 10 of them have both keywords in anchor and title, and 13 only in anchor.”

The difference is 13, or i should use the smallest number between the 2 values?

Just one thing. Ok, maybe two. allinanchor:”personalized sippy cups” returns 103,000 results, yet there is hardly any competition. This means that there are 103,000 webpages that are are linked to using the term "personalized sippy cups" right? Then, [allintitle:personalized napkins] 7,500 results [allintitle:personalized wedding napkins] 15,200 results Since the words personalized + napkins are found within the search phrase personalized wedding napkins, doesn't this mean that it should show at least 15,200 results using the allintitle: operator? I am pretty good at logic, and do not see how this can make sense if I understand the operators correctly. Thanks Tyrone!

What it looks like is that there are lots of posts about ”personalized sippy cups” and Google picks this up from all websites across the Internet. With these kind of results I can see there's a demand for this market and with competition this low, you may be possible to rank well. Have you applied the formula? What is your result? Thanks.

Sure, the second one seems to be very highly optimized and therefore more people would search for this over the generalized "personalized napkins". Don't forget Weddings are a very big market and when you search for something in this market you are going to get higher results. Hope this helps. Thanks. Hi Jim,

[allintitle:personalized napkins] 7,500 results [allintitle:personalized wedding napkins] 15,200 results The first keyword query is also within the second, yet the second has over twice as many results. How can this be? Also Tyrone, if you don’t mind addressing this question as well.
[allintitle:personalized napkins] 7,500 results
[allintitle:personalized wedding napkins] 15,200 results

The first keyword query is also within the second, yet the second has over twice as many results. How can this be?

I look forward to reading more in your newsletter. My question is about allinanchor. While using this operator, I've found that there are often 100,000+ results my lower competition keywords. For example, the query allinanchor:"personalized sippy cups" returns 103,000 results. However, competition for this keyword is substantially low. There is even a website that has NO backlinks on the first page. Can you tell me why there are so many results for this allinanchor query? Any help is greatly appreciated much.

When you put quotes in an inanchor search then it will search for that phrase similiar to allinanchor with quotes.

There are two kinds of keyword terms, head terms and tail terms. Head terms refer to short keywords, usually one to two words in length that tend to have very high search volume. Tail terms are the longer keyword terms, typically three or more words that tend to have a much lower search volume than head terms. An effectively executed SEO strategy sets out to generate large amounts of quality Web site traffic by targeting a blend of head terms and tail terms. When you select keywords to incorporate into your Web site, remember that your goal is not to optimize your Web site all at once, but to optimize each page of your Web site. You should never optimize for more than one or two target keywords per Web page, because doing so dilutes your optimization in too many directions and decreases your overall effectiveness and ranking potential. The approach you take to optimizing each page of your Web site is different depending on whether you are optimizing existing Web page content or building new content. If you are optimizing existing Web page content, you should select one or two keywords that best summarize that page. In addition, you may need to manipulate the content a bit to make sure that your target keywords are emphasized and stand out from the rest of the content. If you are building new content, you should have one or two target keywords in mind before you start writing. For example, if your target keyword is “Extra Double Aged Gouda,” your Web page content should focus specifically on gaining ranking for that keyword.
