Various uses of Keywords
photo credit: 0595 It’s been a few days since my trial of WordTracker. I’ve been trying to get a handle on how to use the system. I’ve only been able to watch 1 video tutorial that they’ve sent me as a part of my trial. What I’ve learned is that keywords and its uses is a broad subject.

I signed up for it and I thought it was an awesome analytic tool. I’m still using WordPress Blog Stats plugin, and Shiny Stat, however Site Meter seems offers a bit more. Here’s one example.
