Wordtracker IS SKEWED?!

I have been using WT for 6 years now, but lately I am really having issues with its data. Am I alone?

I'd love to hear feedback on the other tools available too...

THANKS!

I like to use Google Keyword tool and Wordtracker... however i always compare the results of the two. I started out trusting Wordtracker more ofter, however it has very quickly switched to the opposite.

The best tool (IMO) is google and even they struggle to be accurate. How then can we expect WP to be?

The best tool is your OWN analysis used from log files of your well written content. That 's th eonly data you can trust and it's accurate!

Thanks Guys!

and when you refer to the Google tool, you are referring to this correct? https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

Question, isn't this a lil skewed and for Adwords? What exactly is it pulling? It seems way higher than WT.

Sure thing. I was thinking more when you are looking in to new areas or launching new sites.

At that point the best you have is google (imo) and even they are way out.
