Google is always coming up with something new (have you tried Google Analytics—amazing!).

The cool thing is, whatever the product or service, it’s usually free and a thousand times better than the paid products that do the same thing.

Google Suggest is no exception. As of today it’s still in Beta, but I was playing around with it last night and it’s great. It works like browsers and cell phones in that, as soon as you start typing something, a menu pops up with suggestions of what words to search for.

This works for phrases as well, and the suggestions seem to be based on information Google has saved from previous searches. In other words, these are words and phrases that people ae actually looking for. The results seem to be in order of number of searches, so if one of the results has a low number of competing pages, well that means it’s not getting much competition.

Here’s a search I did on the term “public domain”:

Then if I zero in on “public domain music” I get this:

Hmmm. Are you seeing the power of this? If you aren’t, think harder! Better still try it out…

Google Suggest

If it’s not there, it may be out of Beta – just do a Google search for “Google Suggest”, you’ll find it.
