Tips

  • Look for keyword patterns in the returned data.
  • Read The Action Guide before you start your brainstorming sessions if you are a new SBI website owner.
  • Good keyword research sessions always starts 'wide' (using global terms) and then goes deeper with each additional Brainstorm It! 'run'.
  • Do NOT become number bound with the DEMAND/ SUPPLY/ PROFITABILITY numbers.
  • Because SBI! is a content driven website system the relationship between DEMAND and PROFITABILITY is the most important data.

Warnings

  • Brainstorm It! can be a 'sensitive' program. It rarely happens, however you can crash or freeze Brainstorm It! if you start clicking your mouse button. So, start your keyword research 'run', and then go take a break while Brainstorm It! does its research.
