NicheBOT switches to Keyword Discovery
by Paul Flyer
I noticed that Nichebot has recently switched from Wordtracker to Keyword Discovery. I have heard other rumblings about others making a similar switch. I am currently re-reviewing Keyword Discovery and hope to have something posted within the next two weeks.
I have written about the limitations of keyword tools in my keyword popularity research and keyword suggestion tools articles. It will be interesting to watch to see if this is the beginning of the end for Wordtracker unless of course they can reinvent themselves. It will be also interesting to see if the rest of the keyword analysis world goes through fundamental (and hopefully beneficial) changes.
UPDATE 2/9/2006: Nichebot retains Wordtracker. See comment below and this post.
Be sure to review our list of recommended web tools.




Hey Paul,
Thanks for letting your subscribers know about
Keyword Discovery being switched on the front end
of NicheBOT.com.
Actually, this was NOT a switch out, but rather,
a miscommunication between NicheBOT and WordTracker.
Apparently, a day after I sent out notice about
the Keyword Discovery update, WordTracker wrote
us and told us that NicheBOT’s connection to
WordTracker was faulty and they gave us proper
instructions to fix it, which has now been done.
If you are on our update list, you would have
received this important update.
We then restored the WordTrackerr tool to
the following URL right here:
http://www.nichebot.com/wt/
So everything is alive and well with both
WordTracker and Keyword Discovery, and the
Overture tool is there as well.
In fact, I think WT and KD are two separate
distinct type of keyword services. One is good
for short term cycles of keywords while the
other is good for long term cycles of keywords
that reflect results over the the past 12 months.
Each service has its highlights and advantages,
so it really depends on the type of keyword research
an individual wishes to conduct as to which flavor
of keyword service to use.
Either way, I think both keyword services are
still very viable in today’s keyword research
market.
Best,
Jim Morris, President/CEO

[...] I just received a comment on my post about Nichebot switching to Keyword Discovery from Jim Morris, owner of Nichebot. In short, NicheBOT is not switching but adding! They will now offer analysis from three tools: Keyword Discovery, Wordtracker and Overture. I will blockquote the pertinent parts of his comment here for easy reference. It explains the whole matter. I think his comments are right about using both Wordtracker and Keyword Discovery. Each serves a particular function and purpose. [...]
