Being able to find the right products that you would be interested in selling on your sites is one of the KEYS of being successful on the internet. Storesonline provides some resources that would help you search these products to find out whether there is a market out there on the net. Below you will find information on these tools and what the benefits are for each one.
Note: It is important to note that the old search tool represented about 1/4 of all online searches and displayed results from one specific month. The new tool is a more complete representation of online searches so there is no need to multiply the results by 4. Also, the results displayed are the number of searches done in an average month.
Another important difference to note is that the old tool would aggregate "like" results and would include terms that are similar:
eg: for the query cheap financial advice, the old tool would record searches on the following terms in its results:
"cheap financial advising"
"cheap financial advisors"
"cheap finncial advice"
"cheapest financial advising"
With all of these terms included, the old tool consistently displayed a greater number of results. The new tool does not group results in this way. The results for cheap financial advice are for that exact term only and will not include data based on similar terms like the ones shown above.
Global
The global database compiles its data from over 32 billion keyword searches performed from over 200 different sources worldwide.
Premium
The more accurate Premium database bases its results on 4.3 billion keyword searches using user panel data. This data is free from skew caused by automated agents, a problem that has traditionally faced all keyword suggestion services. Typical search statistics report on popular queries, which are inflated by various automated agents such as search engine crawlers, rank checkers, and bid checkers. With these programs inflating the true search numbers, it is more difficult to accurately estimate available traffic using typical search statistics. The Premium database eliminates this problem, giving you a more accurate picture of the search engine market.
eBay
The eBay database contains searches performed within the eBay online auction network. This database lets you determine what eBay buyers are looking for. Popular searches on eBay can tend to be potential opportunities, and you can use these high conversion keywords in your PPC campaigns.
News
The news database contains searches from several major news sites and news portals, including Google news. You can use this database to identify and monitor current news trends, and adapt your marketing accordingly.
Shopping
The shopping database compiles data from searches performed at many major ecommerce and shopping sites. These sites include Amazon, Buy, Bizrate, Froogle, Yahoo Shopping, and many others. This data can give you insight into how your customers shop for products on major shopping sites, including which search phrases they use, what specific SKUs that are most searched for, and other aspects.
UK
The UK database contains searches performed on the United Kingdom regional version of several popular search engines, including Google.co.uk, MSN.co.uk, Ask.co.uk, Yahoo.co.uk etc
