Word Tracker --- Overture

[amar]

Hi Friends,

I need some clarifications about wordtracker and overture keyword selection tools.

The count displayed by overture is of which search engines, it will show these many people searched for this keyword in last month? Will it add the counts from all the 3 major search engines(Google,yahoo and Msn)?

when i am getting the keywords from wordtracker keyword selector it was showing the count from dogpile and meta crawler which are a mixture of all the major search engines...


I am in a great dilema to move forward..

I would like to have a clarification on both the cases.....

waiting for members suggestions...

Thanks,
Amar

Amar I wouldn't use either a quantitative number of hits, users, visitors that can be expected to come to your site. The numbers on both tools are nothing more than a value assigned to keyword show you its popularity when compared to other keywords. That's it. Overture/Yahoo says their numbers are accurate, but it is not true.

The closets to accuracy might be the new release of Google Suggestion Tool which is supposed to show us a more accurate tell in number of hits each keyword receives in their search engine. Aaron Wall has a good write up on it here:
