Keyword research is something you need to consider when
building your art website, especially if you wish to grow your
site organically.
I
realise I promote the whole aspect of "branding" your
self, where I suggest getting yourself out into the public on a
social level. This of course helps you drive traffic to your
website via use of social media sites such as twitter, facebook
and stumbleupon.
But
it's important to consider the essential principals of putting
together a successful website so you'll attract visitors through
strong keywords also.
Spending
some time on researching keywords will pay dividends in the long
run.
I
am by no means a search engine optimisation expert, but I can
translate the important principals of SEO to you so you'll
appreciate how it all comes together to increase your marketing
position online.
The
two videos below, "Researching Keywords For Search engine
Optimisation Part 1 & 2" will provide some insight in
the purpose of this planning process when it comes to building your website blueprint.

Resources:
Wordtracker
is one of the best tools for researching keywords available. You can opt
to use the free version, which is quite limited and will not
give you a deep search. Much like the free Google keyword tool I
used in the videos above, the free version of wordtracker will
allow you to touch the service and scoop a few niche category
keywords.
My suggestion is that you purchase a full week of using
wordtracker so you can do some solid research for your
site, and see if you can't find some keywords with little
competition but high demand. Using the paid option will give you
a whole lot more variations on your major niche keywords and
provide you with some juicy long tail keywords - which can be
very powerful if you use them correctly to bring in free
organic traffic to your site.
Site Build It
in my view, is the best website building platform available.
What makes SBI so appealing and so powerful is its solid support
network. It teaches you how to build a business and not just a
website, and it is equipped with every tool you need to put a
website together and to maintain it successfully regardless
if you are complete newbie or experienced veteran.
