What is the best keyword tool for 2013?
-
Since the change in Google's keyword tool I have found it frustrating to use in finding new keywords. Which keyword tool would you recommend? Many thanks.

I am a huge fan of Long Tail Pro. You can enter in a few seed keywords and it automatically grabs thousands of related keywords from the Google Keyword Planner (so you don't have to mess with it). Then you can sort and filter by search volume, organic title competition, CPC, etc. But perhaps the most valuable part of it is that is uses Moz's API to determine Keyword Difficulty so you can quickly determine which keywords get a decent number of searches and are not that competitive, aka the Holy Grail of SEO.
(I am not affiliated with LTP, just a big advocate of it since it's definitely the best keyword tool I've used in years and it doesn't seem to get a lot of attention in the "mainstream SEO" community. Maybe because the site looks kinda spammy and sales-y but I promise it is legit!)

Agreed - that is an excellent post, with many useful tools and info.
I would add - for the google suggest part of the post - an excellent tool is Uber Suggest. http://ubersuggest.org/

Great, thanks! I'll look into those now.

Here is an excellent blog post from Ruth on the different tools: http://moz.com/blog/keyword-volume-tools
I currently use Spy Fu and would recommend it.

Coworker and I see totally different keyword volumes on same paid keyword planner account
My coworker and I are both connected to the same company's paid keyword planner account but are using our own individual google accounts to log in. When I look up the keyword "joint bank account" I get a search volume of 9,900, while she gets a search volume of 2,900. Does anyone know why this might be? Do we know which might be more accurate? This doesn't seem to be connected to Google lumping semantic variations together. I've seen it happen way before that update. It's hindering our headline pitching since the volume she sees does not meet our minimum search threshold. Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Laira

Keywords/URL
Greetings! I've read previous posts on this topic, but wondering if something has changed recently...On the on-page grading, the following was suggested:Use Keywords in your URL - high importance - easy fix _(In the past it has read difficult fix). _Could it be as easy as creating a new page with the name in the url, then redirecting to it? My site is www.enchantingquotes.com and the keyword that brings in virtually all of business is "wall quotes". I've read in the forum this isn't worth the trouble of trying to do, but the "easy fix" comment has me wondering...?Any help is much appreciated....I'm been trying to recover from a recent unexplained drop in rank. Ugh! (So feel free to analyze my site LOL!) :DA huge thanks for any advise!

Meta Keywords Dilution?
In general, does having a large number of meta keywords listed in a page's meta keywords line dilute effort? On other words, should I focus on optimizing for 1 or 2 keywords per page to keep my efforts focused and increase the probability of ranking better for those 1 or 2.....or should I put down all the keywords I would "like" to rank for? Thank You

Two for the price of one: Can I rank for multiple keywords when only targeting one keyword?
If I'm optimizing for a specific keyword, is it accurate to assume that by ranking for that specific keyword that I will also be able to rank for similar or root keywords merely by ranking for the original keyword? For example, if I'm targeting 'free online bucket list' is it safe to assume that I will also be able to inadvertently rank for 'online bucket list' or 'free bucket list'? Can I assure clients of this? Or if I'm targeting 'Colorado grocery store' should I also naturally rank for 'grocery store Colorado' and not need to make both of these my targeted keywords?
