When I first started Internet Marketing a few years ago I eagerly went out and bought multiple domain names with the hopes of profiting by promoting affiliate offers. Initially it seemed like an easy process until something happened…actually nothing happened.

Despite my best efforts there was no traffic to my sites and definitely no sales. Looking back now it is easy to figure out because I had not done proper keyword analysis or determined the quality of the competition in the chosen niche. It was a frustrating experience that is probably shared by many marketers.

Fortunately there are tools available to aid you in performing keyword research while also determining your marketing competition. SEMRush is the leading competitive research and keyword analysis service for both organic and paid traffic.

SEMRush provides a comprehensive database of keywords (over 80 million) and domains (over 42 million) directly from Google which is the leading search engine. By default SEMRush utilizes data from the United States Google database but is also capable of displaying data from several regional versions including the United Kingdom, Russian, German, French and Spanish.
