Hey all,
I have got couple of ideas to start a website of my own. I really need help from you guys in terms of letting me understand which all things should I really take care of? How should I start doing a research on the idea?

The two most important things for finding a niche to write in:
>Keyword Research (how much traffic those search terms get.)
>Competition (how many other sites are competing with you for those keywords and how hard they will be to beat.)

(1) Secure more business from existing customers
(2) Enter new markets
(3) Penetrate existing markets to a greater extent

I rarely pay for software preferring whatever is free but this...

What are your strategies for finding good keywords for articles, and what factors do you associate with a good keyword or keyword phrase?

Just what it says on the title thread really - I've been using it for a couple of days and just really not getting it. I've watched the videos but I still need some help with getting started on a keyword at the beginning.Anyway I'll wait for a volunteer and then try and explain myself a bit better
