Marketing Tips
Here at Kolb Net Works, we've recently paid for a year's subscription for Word Tracker Pro. This tool allows us to do groovy research into keyword selection. We can actually see how many times a proposed keyword has been requested in search engines recently and how many web sites service that keyword, thus giving an index of keyword uniqueness.

You can try out a free sample of Word Tracker.

Visit our Keyword Guidance page.

Call us to review your keywords using up to date marketing tools.
