Spy On Your Competition and Discover Their Profitable Keywords

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I’ve tried a few keyword spy tools and have been quite disappointed so far. They either give you silly results or they are fine if you live and market in America.

However, I’ve just signed up to Keyword Spy and so far I’m pretty impressed!

The best thing about this is that you can select where you want to “spy” quite accurately, rather than just assuming you’re in America. You can pick either UK, Australia, Ireland, Canada & South Africa, as well as a “Global” option.

It tells you exactly what keywords your competition are bidding on, and although it’s not totally accurate it does give you a damn good idea of what they’re up to!

You can also view their ads related to the keyword and find out how many other advertisers are bidding on a search term. I just spent about 4 hours on this thing last night - it’s fascinating.

I don’t think this replaces good keyword and market research, but if you are entering a new market or are in a competitive market, this’ll definitely give you an edge.
