Understanding Mobile Keywords
Filed under: Mobile, News, Paid Search, SEO, Updates — Steve Wulz @ Tuesday, May 5th, 2009January saw the introduction of the Google mobile keyword tool which allows AdWords users to access search volume specifically from mobile-device searches.
Essentially this tool is the first to make available effective keyword research for both PPC and SEO mobile campaigns.

Access is as simple as logging into your AdWords account, accessing your mobile ad group and looking for the Keyword Tool link available near the top of the table illustrating campaign data.
