Predicted - This is the maximum total predicted traffic for all of the major search engines/pay per bids and directories. It is based on the current 24-hour period. Dig - When you perform any kind of search in the keyword universe, you can now dig down to the next level. E.g. search for 'gambling'. Then, when you click on 'online gambling', just the results for 'online gambling' come up, click on 'online gambling in states' and so on. Great for focusing on niches. Clicking on each word again adds it to your basket. The next step is to compare these keywords in order to find the best keyword for you, You are looking for a keyword with a high KEI or Keyword Effectiveness Index, what's this? In a nutshell: Look for the keywords near the top. The higher the KEI, the more popular your keywords are, and the less competition they have.
