Google has made some pretty drastic changes to their keyword tool that’ll make your life much easier when doing keyword research. If you’ve ever used their keyword tool before, you will have noticed that they represented search volume data for a keyword by a rating out of 5.

However, they have scrapped that now and are currently showing actual search volume for keywords as in specific numbers.

This is extremely useful because it eliminates much of the guesswork as to how popular a niche, market or keyword is and from now on you’ll able to determine precisely whether you can realistically target them or not.
