Overture - The Free Alternatives
With the Overture Keyword Suggestion Tool either
overworked or retired (and either way it's currently
inaccessible), the question for keyword researchers
is... What will replace Overture?
In this article, we will look at several contenders...
currently available alternatives to Overture that
you can use without logging in or paying anything.
Just like it was with the old Overture.
There are some fine commercial resources, but today
we're talking about free sites only.
1) Google AdWords Keyword Tool
This keyword generator from Google provides a list
of potential keywords for AdWords ad campaigns but
of course, you can use it for any purpose you like.
You don't need to login or pay anything. Because
results come from the massive Google resources,
your results are as up to date as Google is.
You can select in the drop down box from several
alternatives including search volume for your keywords
or keyphrases and trends in search volume. Search
volume is nothing more than a graphic that depicts
a score out of 5. You can opt for synonyms to also
be displayed.
Overall: The lack of specific numbers means this
tool will be less useful to many keyword hounds.
Let's keep looking...
2) NicheBot Classic
This is the original nichebot service. It offers
fewer options than the new nichebot, but it's easier
to use and doesn't require logging in.
Good points:
-- Fast and easy to use.
-- It produces numbers (counts of search volume).
Bad points:
-- Has a captcha device so you have to type in
the random letters before it will do any work for
you.
3) WordTracker Free Keyword Suggestion Tool
Enter a starting keyword or keyphrase to generate
up to 100 related keywords and an estimate of their
daily search volume.
Yes, you get numbers here too. Their results are
drawn from Dogpile and Metacrawler, two meta search
engines.
Good points:
-- Has a clean user-friendly interface and is easy
to use.
-- It produces numbers.
-- It lists up to 100 results which is more than
either AdWords or NicheBot.
-- No captcha.
Bad points:
-- (Sorry, I cant find any.)
