      Hi all,

      My website is www.bruadair.com which is a luxury 7 bedroom villa in Barbados primary suited for large groups and weddings , using googles adword keyword tool i have been trying to establish some long tail keywords that i could include in my website. However i am finding it extremely difficult to find any long tail keywords (such as: Luxury 7 bedroom Villa Barbados )  that are receiving any local or global searches, it seems that there are only extremely competitive keywords receiving traffic.

      Does anyone have any suggestions as to how i can find effective keywords? With this type of website is it really as likely to be able to rank high due to the pure amount of keyword competition?

      I would really appreciate any help given as i am really struggling with my keyword research 😞

      Thank you very much!!

        Have you tried using ubersuggest: http://ubersuggest.org/.

        The keyword "barbados villa" produced a lot of possibilities. Save all the relevant results in a txt file and check them out in the Keyword Planner.

          Thanks i really appreciate the help! :)If i see a - in monthly searches in the keyword planner should i assume that the keyword is not worth using?
          I am aware that statistics generated on searches are not 100% accurate but would those keywords be generating any traffic per month?thanks again

            I take a - to mean zilch...at least not enough to show up on Googles radar.  If the results are low you'll typically get a "less than" sign with the number 10.

            Remember you can specify when entering the keywords if you want broad, phrase or exact match results.

            I much prefer the old keyword tool that suggested keyword ideas with the match type already showing.

            It's like Google decided to curb how much free stuff they give us and are shoving us in the direction of PPC.
