HitTail reveals in real-time the least utilized, most promising keywords hidden in the Long Tail of your natural search results. We present these terms to you as suggestions that when acted on can boost the natural search results of your site. It's that simple.

The long tail is an economic concept that says the collective demand for less-popular items (in green) can exceed the all the most popular added together (in red). Online music stores are a perfect example because they can carry large collections of music just as easily as just a small selection. The product is digital and there are no inventory issues. So, the pay-per-click industry is now using this concept to encourage you to run ever-larger keyword buys. Their inventory of obscure, yet valuable keywords is inexhaustible. But the dirty secret of keyword marketing is that the longtail concept applies even better to un-paid search, and can eventually free you from your paid keyword campaigns. How?

I signed up for one month to test things out, I've had it for a week and I'm pretty impresed so far.

Here are some of the stats I'm able to see. It's helped with some of the threads I start. You can see in the suggestion tab, so of the latest threads I've started.

I really shouldn't show everyone what search terms ppl are hitting to come here, but maybe this will convince a few of you to try it out. :coolgleamA:

ps.. the first pic is really a lot longer, I just didn't want to stretch the page out.

    I have been using it, looking at keywords that are being hit, adding them... and boom! They get even more hits!
    I love this thing!
