With only a few weeks until the event, St. Clair Park and Recreation Board members are pushing for an increased number of vendors for the 2012 Freedom Fest, scheduled for June 23 in Orchard Park.
Park board member Letha Childers said between 150 and 200 letters have been mailed to individuals who potentially could display their wares at the annual event. She also said she has emailed many others, but did not have a count for that specific type of solicitation.
"We sent the forms to past vendors as well as to any others we knew," Childers said during the board's April meeting. "We would really like to have more vendors this year."
City Administrator Rick Childers, Letha's husband, agreed.
"Vendors and a crowd are what we're really trying to draw," he said. "If you have a lot of vendors but not a big crowd, your event is not as successful. If you have a big crowd but not a lot of vendors, your event also isn't as successful.
"We really want a lot of both."
Last year, a couple dozen vendors signed up for the event and offered games, food and sellable items.
"We just want to make sure people have plenty to do," Letha Childers said.
Extra electrical service is being wired at Orchard Park to better serve vendors, Rick Childers said.
Vendor information and applications are available through city hall at 636-629-0333.
The St. Clair Area Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring a pair of bounce houses for children during the festival. Household Sales & Leasing will have a variety of games on the basketball court area. Michelle's School of Dance will have a dance troupe on site. Turtle races, a hot dog and watermelon eating contest, pennies in a haystack game and other activities are planned.
New this year will be some kind of a talent show. It will replace the children's pageant that had been a staple at the festival for years. Dana Collins is organizing the show.
The festival will conclude with an expanded fireworks show at dusk.
On the evening before, Friday, June 22, a kiddie parade will kick off Freedom Fest. Rick Childers said plans are for it to be similar as last year's when children up to age 12 decorated bicycles or other nonmotorized modes of transportation and traveled from City Park on Main Street to Evergreen Park.
Rick Childers also said the city is looking for individuals to serve on the park board. The board meets once a month, on the fourth Monday, at 6 p.m.
People must live in the St. Clair city limits to be considered.
The board monitors an annual budget and makes decision on park-related events and activities, such as Freedom Fest, October's Boo Bash and the annual Lighted Christmas Parade in December.
By ordinance, the city is supposed to have nine park board members. Currently, it has four. There are several people who serve as nonvoting members
For more information, contact Rick Childers at city hall.

Show synopsis In this suspense thriller, a man discovers the unexpected danger of trusting a good Samaritan. Jeff Taylor (Kurt Russell) and his wife Amy (Kathleen Quinlan) are driving through the New Mexico desert en route to California when an incident with a lunatic driver causes their jeep to break down in the middle of nowhere. Jeff is trying to fix the vehicle when an apparently friendly truck driver, Red Barr (J.T. Walsh), stops by to offer help. Red tells the couple that there's a diner a few miles down the road where they can call for help; Jeff decides to stay with the car while Amy hops a ride with Red to see if she can find a mechanic to help them. After a long wait, Jeff is able to get the jeep running again, and he discovers that the diner is indeed a few miles down the road. But everyone there claims they've seen no sign of Amy, and Red claims to know nothing about picking her up. When Jeff attempts to file a missing person's report, he discovers mysterious disappearances are disturbingly common in this stretch of the desert; he soon realizes that someone has kidnapped his wife, but he's not sure who, or for what purpose.

All Ways - instant oil moisturizer leave in conditioner
I only got this last week, I just decided to try it because it had decent ingredients and said it was made with 100% natural herbs.
I washed my hair as usual, and used this for a leave-in. I used a denman to detangle and define while my hair was wet.
I didn't use any other product at all, no moisturizer...nothing! I was going to, but this said it was a moisturizer and conditioner.
Well, my hair is usually quite dry already by the day after washing and moisturizing, but I've had this All Ways in my hair for a few days, and its only now starting to dry, and not even that much.
Obviously I've only had it a week, so I'm not sure yet, but I really think this might be my new favourite.
Have any of you used it?? What did you think? Also, if you've used it, what type of hair have you got

By Brierley Wright, M.S., R.D. [2], November 17, 2011 - 11:08am
I'm lucky that I don't (usually) have trouble falling—or staying—asleep. But there are definitely nights, sometimes even stretches of nights, where I don't get enough sleep—and I'm not alone: an estimated 50-70 million Americans, according to the Centers for Disease Control, don't get enough sleep. (Get 3 simple tips to help you beat insomnia here. [8])
It's then that I want to make every last minute of shut-eye count. And that means knowing what can actually help me sleep and what hinders sleep. Here are 6 sleep myths to ignore, as reported in EatingWell Magazine.
Myth: Falling asleep to the TV is OK.
The Truth: Artificial light from televisions—and especially from computer and smartphone screens—may suppress production of melatonin, a sleep-inducing hormone triggered by darkness. Artificial light also shifts your circadian rhythms—a biological cycle that responds primarily to daylight and darkness and influences sleep.
Myth: A glass of wine before bed will help you get a better night's rest.
The Truth: Because alcohol is a sedative, drinking wine, beer or other alcoholic beverages may help you fall asleep, but as little as two drinks can cause you to sleep less restfully and wake up more frequently. And alcohol-related sleep disturbances are worse for women, say researchers at the University of Michigan. Drink moderately, if at all, and avoid drinking within a few hours of bedtime.

20 Tips and Facts to Get a Better Night's Sleep [10]
Myth: Exercising at night keeps you awake.
The Truth: Hitting the gym or going for a run less than 3 hours before bedtime won't prevent you from falling asleep, according to recent research. It may, however, hinder your sleep quality.
Myth: A cup of herbal tea will put you to sleep faster.
The Truth: Though chamomile, lemon balm, hops and passionflower are all touted for their sleep-promoting properties (and are often found in "sleep-formula" tea blends), their effectiveness hasn't been proven in clinical studies, according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
Related: 7 Soothing Foods and Calming Scents to Help You Relax [11]
Add This 1 Ingredient to Your Tea to Make It Healthier [12]
Myth: You can catch up on lost sleep by sleeping in on weekends.
The Truth: If you sleep poorly—or don't get enough sleep—once or twice a week, you can make up for it. But after more than a few sleepless nights, it becomes harder to "recover" from lost sleep, says new research from Penn State.
Myth: Drinking a glass of warm milk will help you fall asleep.
The Truth: The theory is this: milk contains tryptophan (the amino acid best known for being in turkey), which when released into the brain produces serotonin—a serenity-boosting neurotransmitter. But when milk was tested, it failed to affect sleep patterns. "Tryptophan-containing foods don't produce the hypnotic effects pure tryptophan does, because other amino acids in those foods compete to get into the brain," explains Art Spielman, M.D., an insomnia expert and professor of psychology at the City University of New York.

Arlene Phillips has written about her dad today in the mail - he was an AD sufferer.
I wont come as a surprise to anyone here that some of what she wrote is distressing regarding his treatment in a care home (appreciate not all like that) but he did eventully live to the end of his days in a very nice care home with compassionate staff.
There is a long way to go but staff training is essential.

1. Re: Text to Email messagesVerizon Wireless Customer Support Apr 12, 2012 7:57 AM (in response to bobwings)
Good morning! Sending text messages is a great way to save important information. When you forward a text to an email address, you become the 'original' sender so it will only show that information.
I recommend browsing through the Apple App Store for applications that will sync or 'back up' your text messages to your email account directly. I use one on my Android device and it allows me to see who sent me each text message in my email account.
Thank you!

MPlayerX does this, but I experience massive audio sync problems when I playback files downloaded from my Tivo. iTunes won't play my Tivo files at all.

Think you need dozens of tools for keyword research? Think again.
I asked 61 online marketing experts a simple question:
If you could only use 3 tools for keyword research, which 3 would you choose?
Keyword research is at the core of any SEO, PPC or content marketing campaign. If you aren't bidding on or using the right keywords, you're not serving the right content to the right audience at the right stage in the buyer journey. This means less traffic, leads, customers...and dollars.
I wanted to know which keyword research tools the experts were using to get a leg up on their competition and build profitable online marketing campaigns.
There are a ton of top 10, 20, 30...100 lists out their floating around the web. Often, after reading, you're nowhere closer to finding the best tools for your business. That's why I decided to go straight to the source and ask the experts and see if the best keyword research tool would rise to the surface...
Here are the top keyword research tools recommended by the experts...

The Best Keyword Research Tool For Your Online Marketing Campaigns
Read on to discover each expert's top 3 keyword research tools.
Responses are listed in the order they were received.
#1: Gael Breton (Authority Hacker)
1 - SEMRush:
Who doesn't want to know what their competitors rank for? That's my #1 way of finding keywords (see how here)
2 - Google keyword planner: No matter how many fancy keyword tools there are out there, the keywords planner gives you the trends and allows you to enter landing pages (from your competitors) to extract high volume relevant keywords.
3 - Ubersuggest: The best (free) tool to expand on a base keyword and find long tail variations to talk about / include in your article.
#2: Geoff Kenyon (GeoffKenyon.com)
The three tools that I use most frequently for keyword research are, KeywordTool.io, SEM Rush, and Excel. While each of these are useful tools, they all serve very different purposes. KeywordTool.io is great for discovering variations of keywords to built pages around. Frequently, I use this the most for developing content. I will use the tool to pull in a lot of keywords related to a theme and group them into relevant topics. These topics will either become their own content page or will be combined with other topics to create a page. KeywordTool.io is similar to other tools out there such as Uber Suggest, which I've used for a long time, but it tends to produce more keywords and it provides search volume for the keywords.
SEMRush is great for competitive keyword research. If you look at the organic competitors section of the tool, it will show you who you're competing with for common keywords. You can then go in to each of those competitors and identify keywords that you might not be targeting now, but you should be. In addition, you can dig into the paid side of search and find out what keywords your competitors are bidding on, and then leverage those keywords for your own organic benefit if you're not already doing so. Search Metrics does this as well, but I've found SEM Rush to provide a greater range of keywords and they save more historical keyword data than Search Metrics.
Excel serves a couple different purposes in my keyword research projects. Most simply, I've found Excel to be one of the most effective ways to simply and actionable present keyword research data. I use Excel to create keyword mapping documents where I provide the URL along with the associated keywords, titles, etc. I've also found Excel to be very useful when you are working with a site that offers services in different areas. Using the concatenate or & formulas, you can easily create permutations of keywords and geographic regions to generate keywords for different services and geographies served.
#3: Ana Hoffman (Traffic Generation Cafe)
1. SEMrush
2. Market Samurai
3. Google Adwords.
But really, only SEMrush.
#4: Paul Shapiro (Searchwilderness.com)
I think people's aresenal of keyword research tools are mostly the same: 1) You need a tool to examine search volume, most likely Google Keyword Planner 2) A tool to help you generate more keyword ideas. Tools that work with the search engines' autosuggestions are very popular such as KeywordTool.io and Ubersuggest 3) Then people might add a tool broaden the depth of their data, maybe including something like Google Trends or Moz's Keyword Difficulty tool.
Instead of focusing on the 3 tools that everyone needs to cover these important bases, I'll give you my top 3 keyword research tools that you need to go above-and-beyond what everyone else is doing:
1) KNIME - if you want a very open-ended tool that can be used to do all sorts of keyword analysis. It was the focus of my BrightonSEO 2015 talk on doing better semantic keyword research.
2) MarketMuse - This is a tool that's just taking off, but it's AMAZING. It basiciall crawl your website and/or your competitors' website and find keyword gaps using pretty sophisiticated topic modeling algorithims. It works extremely well.
3) Seed Keywords - Sometimes your keyword research needs a human element and you should be asking your consumer audience how they would search for something. Seed Keywords helps you create a small survey and get that feedback.
#5: Matthew Barby (matthewbarby.com)
If I could only use three tools for keyword research then they would be:
1. Google Keyword Planner
2. KW Finder
3. Moz Keyword Difficulty Tool
These are the main tools that I use, with Google Keyword Planner and Moz Keyword Difficulty tool being the constant within the list. I sometimes change KW Finder with Long Tail Pro or Keyword Snatcher. Similarly I love SEMrush for competitive analysis but KW Finder is just so well-rounded and powerful that it can do many things on it's own.
#6. Adam Connell (bloggingwizard.com)
1) SEMrush – You get a lot of useful functionality with this tool including site auditing, keyword difficulty scores, estimated traffic data etc. What I really like about SEMrush is how you can search up your competitors and get an idea of the keywords they're ranking for along with estimated search volumes.
2) Keywordtool.io – This tool uses Google's autocomplete feature to generate keywords. Super useful and it's free.
3) BuzzSumo – Not your usual keyword research tool and well, it's not. Keyword research has been a foundation of content planning for a good while and it's about more than specific keywords, it's about topical reliance and intent. I use BuzzSumo to validate my keyword research and get an idea of how much certain topics get shared.
#7. Christine Churchill (keyrelevance.com)
I like using a variety of keyword tools, but if I was on a desert island and could only use three tools, the three keyword tools I would want access to for keyword research are:
1.) Google Keyword Planner
2.) SEMRush
3.) Google Trends.
#8. Ian Cleary (Razor Social)
1) Inboundwriter - Inboundwriter helps at the ideation phase. I enter in my proposed title for a post and Inboundwriter will indicate how likely it is that I will rank on Google for these keywords. It will also tell me the related keywords that I should consider in my content.
2) SEMRush - Find out what keywords your competitor is ranking on so you can create better content and take some of your competitors traffic.
3) Google Keyword Planner - Find out an estimate of searches for particular keywords. Not always accurate but useful to review alongside the other tools.
#9. Brian Dean (Backlinko)
1) SEMRush
2) SEOcockpit
3) Longtailpro
#10. Jacob King (jacobking.com)
1) Google Keyword Tool - still calling it tool, not buying into their Adwords keyword planner BS
2) SEMRush
3) Excel and then Scrapebox keyword scraper for some suggestions merging prefixes and suffixes too
#11. James Norquay (Prosperity Media)
Three tools for Keyword Research -
1. Google Keyword Tool - Even though it is old school and the data is not 100% accurate it does still provides some decent data.
2. SEMRush - Rush is great for keyword research on your own site and competitors sites, tho it does not track long tail traffic.
3. Ubersuggest - Ubersuggest is great for generating long tail variations of keywords and generating fresh ideas.
If I only could use three these would be the main ones.
#12. Kristi Hines, Freelance Writer
My favorite three keyword research tools are Google AdWords Keyword Planner, Ubersuggest, and HitTail.
1) Google AdWords Keyword Tool allows you to export up to 800 suggestions for most seed keywords and phrases. You can then use them to optimize your main business pages as well as come up with great topic ideas.
2) Ubersuggest shows you what Google suggests when you start typing in keywords. These suggestions can point you to some great long-tail keyword phrases and content ideas.
3) HitTail connects with your Google Webmaster Tools to help you find the (not provided) keywords that people are searching to find your site - keywords you may not be using as much as you should.
#13. Nick Eubanks (seonick.net)
1. Term Explorer
2. SEMrush
3. SerpWoo
#14. Mike Ramsey (Nifty Marketing & Nifty Law)
1) Google Keyword Planner - There is no better tool for giving somewhat accurate data and ideas. Especially when it comes to local keyword research. Being able to look at a broad keyword like "lawyer" and then narrow the search field to a specific city or market is one of the best uses that only this tool can provide.
2) Semrush - This tool offers fantastic competitive research around domains to find what keywords could be driving traffic for your competitors. Looking at paid keywords ad spend can also help you know which keywords might have monetary value worth pursuing organically. If a competitor is willing to spend a high ad budget on terms and you think they do a good job running their ad campaign, then its a good indication it is worth organic ranking effort.
3) BuzzSumo - This tool can allow you to take a keyword or concept you are interested in and see what type of content has performed the best around social and link building on the subject. I find this tool to be incredibly useful for finding what type content people seem to care about for specific keywords.
#15. Bill Sebald (Green Lane SEO)
We use Keyword Planner of course (#1). But we're also very fond of Grepwords (#2) and a few Google Suggest tools (choosing the one that best fits the client needs at the moment (#3); our list is here. I'm very fond of Grepwords' extensions for giving search metrics on tools like Ubersuggest.
#16. Takeshi Young (keshkesh.com)
1) Linkdex
2) AdWords keyword tool
3) Internal search logs
#17. Aleyda Solis (aleydasolis.com)
1) SEMrush
2) SimilarWeb
3) KWFinder
#18. Larry Kim (WordStream)
Like countless others, I still use Google Keyword Planner for keyword research in SEO. Google is the one with the vast majority of the search data, so even after all these years, they're still the best place to go to find high-level keyword data.
Once you have all of these great keyword ideas though, how do you prioritize them? I use the secret formula you can find under #3 here (well, it was secret until I shared it with my readers) to assign an actual value to each keyword phrase, factoring in search volume, competition and suggested bids.
Once I have all of this insight in hand, I head over to BuzzSumo to see what angles and headlines are working really well on any given keyword topic. It helps you to see what's already been done, so you can make sure your take on it is unique and interesting.
#19. Cyrus Shepard (cyrusshepard.com)
Top 3 keyword research tools:
1. Keyword Planner
2. Ubersuggest w/ Grepwords Chrome Add-on
3. MozBar (for competitive analysis)
#20. Josh Laughtlan (jtree.net)
If I could only use 3 tools for organic keyphrase research (what a glorious world it would be) my 3 punch keyphrase research combo would be Google Autocomplete, Keyword Planner and AuthorityLabs Now Provided reports.
Given you have a good idea of where to start and are fairly confident you are speaking the same language as your client, jump start research by generating related keyphrases and long tail variants with the ever so easy to use Google Autocomplete. This tool makes predictions based on what you are typing that are a reflection of Google search activity.
Google's Keyword Planner can then be used to pull historical search volume for any newly discovered Autocomplete phrases in addition to conducting further keyphrase research.
AuthorityLabs Now Provided reports deliver the final blow of the combo by identifying keyphrases classified as "not provided" by Google (AKA hidden) that already send traffic to the site. This process also helps identify new keyphrases to send back to Autocomplete and Keyword Planner for further research.
#21. Annie Cushing (annielytics.com)
1) SEMrush
2) Soovle
3) Ubersuggest
#22. Harris Schachter (Optimize Prime)
It's hard to boil it down to just 3 keyword tools, so instead I'll describe 3 categories of resources.
1. The first is the literal keyword tools, my favorites include BrightEdge's Data Cube, Wordstream, Ubersuggest and others. These tools give you the actual search phrases, either with or without search volume.
2. The second category are keyword tools based on the competition. One of the first things to determine is not only who the business competitors are, but who the SEO competitors are. Keyword research can be done by simply doing research on high-performing competitors. Some of my favorite domain-based keyword tools are SEMrush, SpyFu, and BrightEdge's Data Cube.
3. Finally, there's just good old research through trends and news. Google Trends, keeping up on industry news of the business, and even newsjacking (if there are relevant topics). These all require different resources depending on the business, but once you find the leaders in their news you can not only leverage them for keyword research but also glean insights into how you can become an industry leader yourself (and dominate SEO).
#23. Reginald Chan (BloggingXL)
1) Long Tail Pro
2) Google Keyword Planner
3) BuzzSumo
#24. Bill Gassett (Max Real Estate Exposure)
1) Ubersuggest
2) Buzzsumo
3) WordStream
#25. Brian Jackson (brianjackson.io)
If I could only use 3 tools for keyword research they would be the following:
1) Web CEO
Web CEO has two awesome features that I use on a daily basis, "Get Suggestions" and also "Spy on Competitors."
With the Get Suggestions feature I can input a keyword and get similar keywords, sorting them by Global searches, Bid competition, Search Trends and also KEI (Keyword Effectiveness Index).
Another very important part of this for me is that Web CEO also allows you to add a "local searches" column and set your search engine down to the city level. When working with local clients this is crucial to know this data! As things can very a lot nationally or globally.
I use this a lot for coming up with new long-tail keywords I might not have thought of. And if you use Web CEO for keyword tracking you can simply add the keyword to your basket and you are instantly tracking it in SERPs.
The Spy on Competitors feature is also great as I can input any URL and see which keywords they are ranking for. This allows me to try and steal some of my competitors keywords and start monitoring my progress in SERPs.
2) SEMRush
I love SEMRush to quickly see "the big picture" when it comes to any keyword I am researching. I can instantly see the top holders in SERPs. I then immediately take the top holders list and go check out their sites. I need to make sure I can beat them content wise otherwise I will search for another keyword to try and rank for. I also use this as a 2nd source to compare against the data I get from Web CEO. Especially because SEMRush can't go down to the local level. So I will usually will throw the keyword data (such as volume, difficulty percentage, etc.) in Excel from both before I start working.
3) KWFinder
I would consider KWFinder one of the newer kids on the block, but is probably just about the easiest way I have found to quickly find new long-tail keywords. A couple things I like about this tool is that it allows me to create lists of keywords. So I can group up my different sites by lists and revisit them at a later date. I can export the data to CSV and start building out campaigns. It also keeps a nice scrolling list of the last 20+ keywords you have looked up. The SEO difficulty indicator comes in very handy as well! As far as ease of use goes, KWFinder wins hands down!
#26. Aaron Agius (Louder Online)
1) Google Keyword Planner
2) Long Tail Pro
3) Market Samurai
Bonus points - this post is awesome.
#27. Loz James (Content Champion)
It's easy to get sidetracked with all the great keyword research tools available, but I always find myself coming back to the same three:
1) Google Keyword Planner
2) Market Samurai
3) Wordtracker
The last two on this shortlist are paid tools - so going the Google route is a good idea if you're just starting out.
There's a load you can achieve with the keyword planner, but I just like to cross check across a few tools to achieve the best results.
#28. Andrew Shotland (Local SEO Guide)
1) SEMrush
2) Google Analytics
3) Google Webmaster Tools
#29. Sujan Patel (wheniwork.com)
1) SEMrush
2) Buzzsumo
3) Google Keyword Planner
#30. Will Blunt (Blogger Sidekick)
1) KWFinder
2) Buzzsumo
3) Google search
#31. Niall Devitt (Tweak Your Biz)
1) Google Keyword Tool
2) Google Trends
3) WordTracker
#32. Sue Anne Dunlevie (successfulblogging.com)
I only use InboundWriter.
#33. Kurt Frankenberg (shoestring101.com)
Because I run several local businesses and help others to promote theirs, my first, second and third SEO tool is a little off the beaten track:
It's actual human interaction, plus a yellow pad to jot down responses. Let's take for example the little screen repair company I founded as a 30 Day Challenge over on Shoestring101. At first I just wanted to make a business with my 14 year old to show him no one needs to give you a job...you can MAKE a job.
So we started with physical signs and free listings in local directories.
But once we got some actual paying customers we started asking them how THEY might go about finding us if they had used the internet.
So far, "repair screen door" and "repair window screens" is the top response.
These can be further refined by asking customers that already found us, HOW they found us.
In the phone script that I use to close local leads, one of the questions is, "How did you find out about us?" If the answer is "internet", which it almost always is...the followup questions are "what search engine did you use?" and "what keywords did you enter?"
It's these, actual-paying-customer-generated keywords that have been most useful. Better than Market Samurai, better than any Google tool, whatever they're calling it now ;-)
Thanks for asking, Robbie! I wouldn't want to tell you that my SEO first, second and third tool was effective without offering compelling proof, so here it is:
If you type in "hack local seo" into Google, you'll find my landmark post, 7 Ways to Hack Local Search SEO for a Free Front Page Listing. In that post I show how I get unlimited leads for my screen repair company and my martial arts studio. See, after getting the right keywords, ya gotta know what to do with 'em.
#34. Joe Williams (zenoptimize.com)
1) Google Keyword Planner it has to be the number one tool for its keyword suggestions and search volume data. I particularly like the fact that you can get keyword search volume data all the way back to Aril 2013.
2) SEMrush the best keyword research tool for competitor keyword research. It's worth checking out the Guru subscription plan which has historical keyword data and Google positions as far back as January 2012 and this comes in handy when trying to work out when a search engine penalty happened for potential client.
3) Mindmap whether it's by pencil and paper or digital, I like visually brainstorming keywords starting with a website's key product and expanding outwards. Here's a simple example: http://www.screencast.com/t/MmuMI7bQPp1
#35. David Schneider (Ninja Outreach)
1) Long Tail Pro: This is the case primarily if I am looking to build a niche site. I don't build niche sites anymore and am no longer a user of LTP, but I do think it is a great software and have no problem recommending it.
2) Google's Adword Keyword Planner: Again this isn't something I would go to often BUT it is free and if I am just looking to get an idea of the volume, since in many cases that is the key metric for me, I would probably go here.
3. Ninja Outreach: Full disclosure this is my own tool, and it is actually an outreach tool, so you may be wondering how it plays into Keyword Research. The fact is there are quite a few data points that NinjaOutreach gets for me that I find useful in keyword research, such as the articles that are ranking for the keyword in Google, their domain authority, their page authority, the number of backlinks they have, and other social and contact data. It's pretty valuable stuff, especially if there is going to be an outreach campaign tied into the keyword research. I wrote a great article with Jake from LTP showing the combination of the two tools.
#36. Umar Khan (Social Cubix)
1) SEMrush
2) Keyword Snatcher
3) Keyword Toolio
#37. Jason Acunzo (sorryformarketing.com)
I actually don't use any keyword tools aside from Google Trends, but only rarely do I even use that. I try to talk to many of our target audience members (entrepreneurs) as I can. I attend events, I have phone calls, I sit next to them while working. Generally speaking, I think it's a waste of time to START with keyword tools instead of actual customers. Yes, you can target people in broad swaths and get a high level sense for what's interesting and trending, but at least in the case of our business at NextView Ventures, it's way more powerful to talk to actual "customers" you serve.
#38. Lisa Barone (overit.com)
Can't go wrong with the Google Keyword tool, SEMRush and Google Trends. The Keyword tool for volume estimates, SEM Rush to see what keywords competitors are ranking for/targeting, and Google Trends to make sure the traffic is actually coming from countries I'm trying to target. Gives a relatively accurate picture of when to expect traffic spikes and seasonality insight.
#39. David Arrington (Profit Pursuits)
1) If you don't have a budget you can still learn some useful information with the Google Keyword Planner. In addition to the search traffic for your list of keywords, take a look at the trends to see what's likely to remain popular in the future. Next, take note of the Adwords competition and bid price. If people are bidding on the keyword there's a better chance of converting people to your list or products. The related keywords tool is also great to get alternative ideas. Finally, plug your top keywords into Google to spy on the competition and see the total number of results.
2) If you have some budget it's hard to beat SEMRush. You get a full keyword research suite and competitive intelligence tool in one convenient package. Check out Robbie's in-depth guide to learn how to get every ounce of functionality out of this tool.
3) For a simple interface that still packs in all the important data, go with Long Tail Pro. I especially like the keyword competitiveness feature, and the ability to check for keyword title competition. This goes deeper than just listing the total search results, allowing you to see how many people have specifically targeted your keyword.
#40. Venchito Tampon (Digital Philipines)
1) SEMrush
2) Keywordtool.io
3) Google AdWords Keyword Planner
#41. Joseph Morales (The Marketing Joe)
If I had to use only 3 keyword research tools, I'd use the following.
1) Keywordtool.io (fantastic tool for auto suggest on Google)
2) Soovle. It's a little unconventional and kinda archaic looking, but a fantastic tool that pulls keywords from various search engines.
3) SEMRush. Another fantastic tool with so much available at your fingertips, you won't want to leave. Ha!
#42. Kevin Gamache (Boise Search Strategist)
1) Moz Keyword Difficulty Tool
2) SpyFu Competitive analysis
3) Brightedge Data Cube
Those 3 get me what I need for keyword research.
#43. Patrick Coombe (Elite Search Strategies)
I use 1 and only 1 tool for keyword research: Google Keyword Planner. I've never seen the use for any other tool. They all seem to confuse things and most of them get the data from GKP anyway. There are a few good ones on the market, but I really just don't have the need for more than one keyword research tool.
#44. Jignesh Gohel (olbuz.com)
1) SEMrush
2) Keyword Toolio
3) Google AdWords Keyword Planner
#45. Chris Dyson (Triple SEO)
1) SEMrush
2) Keyword Shitter
3) Serpwoo
#46. Stuart Walker (Niche Hacks)
I write for my readers and not for search engines but still rank really well for many terms. The only ones I ever use are Google Keyword Tool & LongTailPro.
When I did more keyword based stuff most of the best keywords I found were NOT from tools but from manual research by looking at places like Amazon, Google, competitors websites, forums, reddit, Wikipedia etc. If you really go hunting you can find golden KWs the tools will never show you. Some with real commercial intent too.
#47. Carrie Hill (Ignitor Digital)
My 3 keyword research tools are the Google Keyword Planner, Keywordtool.io and & KeywordSpy.com or SpyFu.com.
I try to build my lists using competitive research/search suggestions through KeywordSpy/SpyFu and Keywordtool.io and then get volumes and related terms with the Planner tool.
There are, of course, paid tools out there like WordTracker and pro versions of the other tools - but I've found I can build lists just as reliable as theirs, without spending the money on the tool - and I feel I get to know a client better by really digging into their competitors.
#48. Nefer Lopez (Growth Hacker Kitchen)
Here are my top 3 keyword research tools:
1) Google Keyword planning tool.
2) Keywordtool.io
3) Buzzsumo - it's not a keyword tool, per se, but I like the social validation of certain keyword themes I have in mind.
#49. Joe Putnam (iSpionage)
The three tools I would use for keyword research are:
1) iSpionage
2) KWFinder
3) Google Keyword Planner
#50. Shane Melaugh (IM Impact)
I'd use SEOcockpit and I really don't know if there's anything else I'd need in addition.
#51. Zac Johnson (zacjohnson.com)
1) SEMrush
2) Longtail PRO
3) SEO Powersuite
#52. Jason Acidre (Xight Interactive)
1) SEMRush - their pro version can certainly provide a lot of useful data (which can help you lead to practical insights) in terms of keyword research and competitive intelligence.
2) Google Keyword Planner - I'd also suggest Keyword.io, they have tons of other relevant suggestions (based on Google and Youtube's autocomplete search/suggest feature.
3) Google Analytics - really useful especially when you've already built enough traffic to better understand user behavior for certain key terms you're aiming to get more value from (particularly long-tail keywords).

1) SEMRush
A great piece of kit for competitive analysis. Find out exactly what your competitors are ranking for and optimise your site to beat them. The tool is also great for finding keywords you didn't realise you rank for.
2) Google Keyword Planner
The original tool will always have its place. Providing the most recent and accurate (you hope) data that Google has. Also great for finding additional keywords by putting in competitors landing pages.
3) Keyword Eye Their question finder is simply awesome. Put in any keyword you want and it will find commonly searched keywords with that keyword in. A great way to find the searches potential customers are making, as well as what answers you need to provide for your products.
#59. Evgeniy Garkaviy (Online Strategist at Hopespring)
1) Google Keyword Planner: This tools is fantastic because it can help me to identify long tail keywords for
my niche. It is official Google's tool and it has the recent trends and keyword variations. For example
you may think that this keyword is great "buy ipad air in liverpool" but Google may suggest "iPad air sale
Liverpool". Yes, not often it is accurate but when I'm using it alongside the other tools – I can get clear
2) SpyFu: I suggest to have paid account on SpyFu. I just need to find my competitors who using Adwords and review them using this tool. It will show me what ads and keywords they are using. Note that my competitor who paid for that particular keyword knows exactly that it is important for his business including recent trends. Also using SEO feature you can input any URL and find our which keywords they are ranking for.
3) Yandex Wordstat. It is very similar to Google Keyword planner. Yandex is Russian search engine but it does not mean that you can use it only for Russian keywords. In Russia many people use this search engine for US searches too. And Wordstat can show me what keywords they were using to find my niche.
#60. Hayden Miyamoto (nohatdigital.com)
1) Long Tail Pro
LTP differentiates itself from other KWs tools because it provides you with an idea of how difficult a keyword is to rank for - it doesn't just spit out KW ideas endlessly. There are definitely reasonably good free keyword tools out there, but in my opinion Long Tail Pro (Platinum version) pretty much pays for itself over time.
2) SEMrush
SEMRush is great for scoping out the competition and for finding keywords that other sites in your niche are ranking for. It's a little more expensive for the average user, but if you're playing at a high level, it's indispensable.
3) Ubersuggest
Ubersuggest is useful as a way to find a ton of KWs at once - the only issue is that you have no idea whether those KWs are competitive or not. In tandem with LTP though, ubersuggest is great - I can just import a ton of KWs at once and then see if they're worth targeting or not.
#61. Spencer Hawes (nichepursuits.com)
1) Long Tail Pro
Obviously, I'm the creator of LTP, so there may be a little bit of bias in this - but I stand by LTP 100%. In fact, I use it frequently for my own KW research, and on my Niche Site Project 3.0, I'm encouraging my latest mentee to use it as well.
2) Google Trends
I've found google trends to be an interesting way to see if a keyword (and by extension a niche) is growing or shrinking, and whether it's seasonal or not. I can't think of any other tool out there that can reliably tell you this information, so that's really useful. Also, if you're building a site, especially an authority site, getting onto something that's trending upwards is a fantastic idea.
3) SEMrush
SEMrush is a very useful tool for both researching competitors when starting a site or for growing an established site. I really like to find weaker niche sites that still seem to be ranking for lots of keywords; SEMrush helps me see what they are ranking for and what I can potentially target. You can also see what keywords you're on the cusp of ranking for with your established site - another very useful feature. You can even see things like whether or not your competitor's are running paid traffic. SEMRush is just so versatile, and it has a lot of functionality that's really useful if you already have a successful site going.
A big thanks to everyone who contributed to the roundup. Please share if you found it useful!

Executive Vice President, PRG Nocturne

In the 80's he started as touring video director with acts such as Journey, Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, Guns 'n Roses, and Elton John, to name a very few. He was nominated for a Grammy for a video produced for Prince. Paul still tours as video director to Paul McCartney, a position he has held since 1989.
Paul's touring history gives him a unique perspective of the multiple facets of providing a video package to the tours where he acts as account executive, noting that, "It's not just providing the latest in equipment, we make sure the crews are competent and compatible with road life as well as insuring the equipment is packaged to fit in the minimal amount of cargo space".
Taking Nocturne from the analog days to the digital multi-screen, high tech productions in use by so many today, Paul still is in close contact with many of the production managers and show designers he has gone through the ranks with.

She obtained her P&C Insurance license which allowed her to easily transition into the assistance of obtaining contracts and certificate of insurances from our clients.

After having set him on his way I took a southerly direction and emerged from the tule swamp.
I built a little hut of tule, and he lay on the ground till he died.
But much of this swamp and tule land has been drained and diked, and is now used for farm land.
She saw Alessandro lift his hand and point to the house, then to the tule sheds in the rear.
The younger brother fixed himself in another stem of tule in the same way.
Cumnor, see that dugout with side-thatch and roofing of tule?
This is the principal tributary to the tule lakes, which collect all the waters in the upper part of the valley.
They took the tule roofs off the little houses, and carried them along.
The tule house which stood nearest to the dove-cote was, by a lucky chance, now empty.
It was tule swamp when I bought it, and I was well laughed at by the old-timers.

We had problems with billing for additional activities
A fantastic hotel will outstanding service. This hotel has rivaled some of the best I have stayed at all over the country.
lots of amenities with pool and racquetball park hotel oversold and did not have room booked
The room with a river view. The staff was excellent. They truly helped us in many ways. The quality of service was twice as good for half the price of many larger cities. Wonderful value. It has a great bar upstairs but it was nearly empty on a Friday night.
All staff was very friendly! Loved walking through the skywalk to the BOB! Beautiful hotel!
The location & the staff Every room is definately NOT worth $200/night. When you're in the tower, on the 20th floor & have a beautiful view of the city / river / area it's one thing, but on the Pantlind (old) side - the fourth floor affords you a view of the parking garage across the street, a tiny room with, what feels like, a water closet for a bathroom and barely room to turn around.
Beds very comfy. Decorated beautifully No sink in bathroom. I usually dont want to walk into another room to wash hands
We had requested adjoined rooms for our group of 8 women. We were told twice that this would happen and it did not. The people in the room next to us complained about us talking late at night and the hotel manager threatened to kick us out. We did not even have a tv or radio on but women sitting around talking. They were extemely rude and we could not believe after all the wedding and party groups they have there on a saturday night they considered us a problem. I will not stay there again, the staff were extremely rude.
The lobby and common areas are beautiful and impressive. Our room was dated, smelled like a mix between cigarette smoke and mold.
Excellent location downtown on Grand River front, very comfortable, top-notch facilities. Good for both luxury leisure travel and business (hotel contains many quality-appearing meeting rooms, plus is integrated with downtown skyway system to convention center, arena, and office buildings). Part of the hotel is a very interesting and elegant historical restoration. Hotel could be OK for families, but seems more oriented toward adults. Overall, an excellent hotel and worth the money. For some reason, we were told at check-in we wouldn't receive full housekeeping during our weekend stay; instead we got vouchers for hotel food and services. We have no problem using sheets and towels for several days (just like home!), but I thought it strange that a luxury hotel would not have full housekeeping on weekends (I don't know if that was true for all guests, or if there was a special issue that caused it this one time). I marked "value" and "cleanliness" slightly down for this reason. Also, sound deadening in the historic part of the hotel (where we stayed) could be better. There was a fair amount of noise from the hallway and plumbing noise from adjacent rooms.
Staff was friendly, but unsophisticated. I was switched out of a room because it smelled musty/moldy. Food was good, but expensive, and I'm not accustomed to having to purchase coffe and breakfast when I travel. Amenities bottles seemed to be only partially full. Rooms were unremarkable, but clean. Staff was vacuuming my floor when I checked in around 5 pm. Internet slow, and again I'm not used to having to purchase a premium package for Internet. I'll stay in a cheaper hotel with better amenities and less focus on decor next time
Location, cleanliness
Location and staff Valet was over priced Facilities somewhat dated
The staff was extremely informative and friendly. The location was pretty good, within walking distance to many things downtown. I felt like it was pretty expensive for what it was and I also had called ahead of time and was put on hold and hung up after waiting for around 20 minutes and called back and was immediately helped.
good location, free parking, most things are as expected Rather mediocre hotel for a rather high price. Rooms are clean only until you look carefully. Free wifi included, but they cut off skype calls after 2 minutes, so that you would have to pay for premium internet. Overall, typical greedy hotel chain, but could be good choice if you find nothing better in the area.
The hotel was very clean and our room was great! Staff at the front desk were extremely rude during check in, even stopping me in the middle of talking to help another guest who came back up to the counter. The bell tower staff were also not very friendly. Elevators were slow due to "construction" (that was no where to be seen).
The location was great. Everything was in walking distance of where we wanted to go. Great night Life too! The check-in was at 4 which Itcould have been at 3 and the check out was at 11 instead of noon. That's the only thing I would change.
I love this hotel! The staff is amazing the restaurant has delicious food and cocktails! I would stay here again!
It's located near the city center and the staff is very friendly. The rooms also have an interesting style. We were underwhelmed when we got to our room because the view out the window was another brick wall a few feet away. My girlfriend freaked out as she's claustrophobic.
The beds were extremely comfortable, though felt a little short. The feel of the room was very modern and classy. Really enjoyed the complimentary coffee delivered to our door the next morning. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Room was very quiet. Found some dust bunnies under the bed/nightstand. Didn't have any shampoo in our bathroom.
Great location and easy Parking across street but not big deal. Maybe they could greet you as you arrive to take bags. Other than that- simple, great design and easy. We were traveling as a family with three small children. Walking distance to madcap coffee.
Beds, pillows, and sheets are amazing. I slept well. Staff was friendly and lounge food was delicious. Though they have quick and friendly room service, there is no table to eat my food on. I used the ironing board.
The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. It is located within walking distance of most places. The room we stayed in was Not well represented by the City Flats Photo. I won't go further. But like I said the bed was comfortable and the room was clean. But I'm going to be wary of "boutique hotels" in the future. I would recommend for a business stay though.

RepairPal is your advocate for car care advice and guidance
Q: How to replace a front left turn indicator bulb? on 1992 Ford F-150
How do i remove the front left headlight assembly to replace a turn indicator bulb? I see the two screws on top to take out, but do not know what else to do. Thanks.
Depending on the position of the bulb, if it is at the outside of the headlight, you should be able to raise the hood and reach bulb from behind the headlight assembly. I would get a small mirror and flashlight to look inside the sheet metal of the fender. The bulb holder should be visible and accessed through that opening in the fender. If you cannot reach it, then you may have to remove the headlight assembly to replace the bulb. If the bulb is below the headlight, you should be able to reach it from below the vehicle. Either way, turn the bulb holders counterclockwise to remove them, also inspect the bulb holders for burn marks from overheating. Sometimes the bulb holders need to be replaced with the bulb to repair function. Good luck.

Hockey World League: India maul Oman 9-1
New Delhi: Vice-captain V R Raghunath, Rupinder Pal Singh and Nithin Thimmaiah scored a brace each to guide India to a resounding 9-1 win over minnows Oman and register their second straight victory in the men`s Hero Hockey World League Round 2 here today.
Raghunath (3rd minute, 40th) and Rupinder (14th, 38th) converted two penalty corners apiece while Nithin (16th, 60th) scored his two goals through field efforts.
Dharamvir Singh (20th), debutant Mandeep Singh (42nd) and another penalty corner specialist Gurjinder Singh (65th) were the other goal scorers for the hosts at the floodlit Major Dhyan Chand Stadium.
Mohammed Hubais Al Shar scored the consolation goal for Oman.
Ranked 21 places ahead of the 36th ranked Omanese, the Indians went into the match as favourites and expectedly controlled the proceedings from start to finish.
Oman`s attacks were few and far between but whenever opportunity came their way, they lacked quality to trouble the Indian defence. It didn`t take too long for India to open the scoring as Raghunath converted the hosts` first penalty corner in the third minute.
It was raining goals for India as Rupinder doubled the lead in the 14th minute from another set piece before Nithin made it 3-0 two minutes later, scoring from close range after pouncing on a loose ball.
A diving Dharamvir also registered his name in the scoresheet after gently tapping in Mandeep`s pass from a difficult angle four minutes later.
Oman, however, pulled one back in the 35th minute from a penalty corner through Al Shar, whose low drag-flick beat Indian goalkeeper P R Sreejesh all ends up to go into the breather trailing 1-4.
The Indians continued in the same breath after the change of ends and pumped in two more goals in a span of two minutes when Raghunath and Rupinder converted two more penalty corners to stretch India`s lead.
Debutant Mandeep was not to be left behind as he scored his first international goal in the 42nd minute.
Nithin then scored his second goal of the day in the 60th minute with a fierce hit from top of the circle before Gurjinder converted a penalty corner five minutes from the hooter to hand India the big win.
By virtue of this win, India are atop the standings with six points from two games. The Indians will next play 15th ranked Ireland tomorrow.
In earlier matches of the day, Ireland thrashed lowest-ranked Fiji 13-0, while 40th ranked Bangladesh stunned 18th ranked China 3-2.
India`s chief coach Michael Nobbs was not too happy with his wards performance today and said they need to iron out a few grey areas ahead of the tough matches in the tournament.
"We won big today but we didn`t concentrate much on our structure. There was a time when our nine players were in Oman`s half. We can`t afford to do that against top teams of the world," he said.
Nobbs was also impressed with neighbours Bangladesh`s stunning victory over higher-ranked China today.
"I was mighty impressed by Bangladesh?s performance. They had exceeded expectations."

That a national debate on health care
reform is even required, let alone that it
has been so vitriolic, speaks to a
bankrupty of values.Health care is a
mandate and a basic human right, and it
is connected to another broken system,
education, says Darlyne Bailey, new dean
of the graduate school of social work and
social research and special assistant for
community partnerships to President
Jane McAuliffe. Educated citizens will
know how to take care of themselves and
contribute to a society that emphasizes
wellness rather than disease management,
says Bailey. (See page 30.)
Bryn Mawr alumnae/i in the health care and social work fields are part of this movement for change.
In this issue we interview six medical students who had significant social services experiences from high school through a "gap year" after college that either solidified their desire to pursue a career in medicine or redirected them from another career path.We also interview alumnae in mid-career who have extended their efforts beyond the office or clinic.
Take the story of Dr. Carolyn Compton '69. A new position at the National Cancer Institute gives her "the opportunity to change medicine for the better (preferably cure cancer) before I die. This is the phase of my life when I 'give back' through public service." (See page 59 for her full story.) The story of Roberta Hershkowitz Berrien '65 on page 57 is yet another example.
The 2008–10 Hepburn Fellows also exemplify a commitment to social justice. Dr. Ana María López '82 is a clinician, researcher and educator whose focus is on improving quality of life and reducing disparities in health care services experienced by many poor, underserved and minority populations. Founder and director of the Global Children's Fund Maya Ajmera '89 intended to become a pediatrician, but a fellowship that allowed her to travel for a year in southeast Asian led to her decision that she could help more children by supporting grassroots groups that work with them. Carol Rogers is a longtime public health activist in Philadelpia. Sarah Schenck '87 is a filmmaker and social activist (see page 16).
We regret to announce the deaths of three members of our community: Arthur Dudden, Fairbanks Professor Emeritus in the Humanities and Professor of History Emeritus, on October 14; Ray Tharan, assistant director of facilities and events in the athletics and physical education department, on October 16; and Professor Emeritus of Chemistry George Zimmerman on October 21.
Correction: In a photo caption in the August issue we misidentified Marie Cashel Grant '44 as Lovina ("Lovey") Brendlinger Carroll '46 and apologize to these two loyal alumnae volunteers.
