From where do you get ideas for mini sites?

By this time, we all know that if we want to create mini sites, we need to do some keyword research to find a niche where it is possible to easily compete with other existing sites. (if you don’t know how to do keyword research then you should read my mini site creation series Part 2).

But where do you get ideas for keywords to research?

Sure it is easy to find a word. You just pick the first word that comes to your head, write it on a tool that gives you long tail keywords, and do a little study to see the competition and searches these long tail keywords have.

How many times a keyword has been searched?

For all you guys trying to find good niche for your site keyword tools like the overture keyword selector tool… but wouldn’t be great to gather all in one place sites like yahoo and google, so that you could have a total of searches of your selected keywords? well i found a site called SeoBook that offers a tooljust like that! Check it out at:

Unfortunately for me this tool doesn’t show results for Portugal nor brazil……

How to check if you have replicated content on the web?

Search engines, and specially google, tend to penalise sites with duplicate content. And this happens a lot. To check that just visit http://copyscape.com and do a search on any of your sites to see if you have duplicate content.

If you have a mini site then you probably did a “copy & past” from another site or article, like i did on my mini site: http://dietsforall.com

I did a search and i got two results.  But im sure there’s more copies, but unfortunately copyscape.com only shows more results if you purchase a premium account :\
