Google Health Provides some New Keyword Research Data

Posted by Martin Jamieson | May 22, 2008 .


If you’re interested in anything to do with the health sector (and judging by adwords prices there are some very profitable niches in there), then Google Health, which has just been launched to the public can give you a quick little boost to your keyword research.

Google have put together an extensive amount of reference data on a large number of medical conditions that you can browse to your heart’s content (you may need to log into your google account to actually read them). Not only is the information contained in these reports quite detailed, but they also highlight related searches for each topic arranged into three sections: diseases, symptoms and drugs.

For example, here’s a screenshot of the relevant section for ‘Psoraisis’ (a condition that causes accelerated skin growth resulting in red, splotchy scales on your skin… something that I have myself) shows these search trends:

If you have any interest in blogging about medical conditions, then the new Google Health data has got to be one of the best places to start your research - you’ll need to expand further obviously, but for some macro level research, it’s a great resource.
