Competitor keyword referral intelligence

2008-10-06T14:51:42Z

Are there any free tools to check keyword referrals for competitors'
sites? I know compete.com gives top 5, but it's usually brand name
terms (amazon, amazon shopping, amazon.com, etc).

Hello all, just a moderation note from a moderator - unfortunately I
still have to do this job, and it is not my favorite one.

Some of the board rules here are just common sense.

I realize it appears like just common politeness to say "contact me
privately for x..." but in fact, several of you have ended posts with

hi Divya,
Your alexa/traffic is very low to get sales that too for that much costly
product.
So you need to increase your traffic thrice the amount you get now, to make
a sale/month atleast. ie. your current alexa is 190000+ you need to get it
down below 90K to get one or two sales a month.
This is a way to get direct customers, so no need to pay commission to some

I suspect one big problem is a confidence issue. The about us page is too
buried; the name of the site might (glimmer rocks) might make some wonder if
they were going to get real diamonds or something that glitters and isn't
real. The one testimonial doesn't sound like it came from a real customer.

Hi Divya,
I am agreed that you should first sell the product via suggested channels
referred by Hiroshi Yasukawa & Ahetarm.
If there is any branding issue like IMHO wants to be a brand in that
segment & so do not like to sell
product through auction sites or any other portal then it
is different matter altogether.

I agree with Hiroshi on the suggestion that you should try selling your products on shopping and auction sites in the target markets.

This will help u understand the saleability of your products.

Maybe thats where the problem lies.

Hi, Divya,
I share your concern; sometimes prospect customers do not act as you intend to.
I'm a Japanese and what I felt might be different from people in western countries, but IMHO the site is beautifully decorated but I could not find a sort of "safe feeling" or "yes this is the place I should shop" (I found a good explanation of your business's status in About Us page but I guess it is too difficult). This may be a branding issue. For example you could add a user-posted picture of the satisfied customer wearing your products on the top page. You could also invest your time a little bit to ask the customers (friends maybe?) to write about your store and experiences in some blogs so if people search glimmerrocks they will see some assuring results.

Hey Divya, I am handling same kind of verticals in Japan Geo Location.
You need to analyze the Analytics report in great way. In fact you can
design one web page where
people can write their name, address, appointment time date etc.
Since the product is expensive so you never know which client can buy

Shorebreak, I simply don't understand your comments. You are correct
that it is rare that a keyword maps to a single product; however, in
many industries it is possible to generate "inventory data" that maps
to keywords quite well (books, movies, CDs) and in other industries a
merchant with a good category system can map to category keywords.

Re: [SEM2] Re: Chrome Share Check

2008-09-26T05:33:23Z

Hi, The exact figure for Chromer is lower than 0.40% (0.37),
Since Japan is altogether different market even the market share of Google
is far less than overture.
In Japan IE is having 85- 90% users.
Firefox 5-6% users
