Something huge happened in the internet world this week and you need to know about it.

This week marked a new change in Google Adwords which will be great news to all of us.

Google have actually done something that they said they would never do and it probably spells the end for services like Wordtracker.

Here’s a brief overview…

If you have ever used Google Adwords you will know that they always represented search volume for a keyword with a green bar graph.

Earlier this week they did away with that and started to to show the actual search volume for keywords.

Wordtracker keyword volumes have sometimes been accused of being inaccurate because they make predictions from only 2% – 3% of actual search activity.

Now that Google has made this change, you will be able to get a much more accurate search volume.

Enter a keyword and you will see Google’s estimate of actual search volume.

How will this affect your keyword and market research?

Using these much more accurate Google search volumes you can be much more certain of the size of a niche.
