Hi all,
Apart fromm the Google Keyword tool, can anyone recommend any other keyword search tools I could use, prefably that offers as close to real time as possible?
Thanks

Hi Simon,
I'm not sure exactly how realtime you're after but these are worth looking at:
- Google Trends http://www.google.com/trends - you can see trends over time too
- Trellian / Keyword discovery is pretty good - but not necessarily very up to speed
- Google's Wonderwheel can also be pretty useful for seeing like-minded terms: we've got a blog post on how to use it here:
We have a blog post that talks more generally about keyword research too.
Hope that helps!

You can use SEO toolbar to starting working at Google and it is also suitable if you are optimizing your keywords to get backlinks.
