Most of us search to solve a problem as quickly, easily, or thoroughly as possible. Once you decide your job is to help people find solutions to problems, you have to hear from them, not least because keyword research is lacking understanding of a searcher’s emotions. How many people searching for Rolex's today are dreamers vs. actual buyers, and how would you market to each group separately? You have to talk with them. Don't have time to talk to users? Google is a great proxy for what people want, and Wil will show you how to start turning keyword research into an empathetic exercise.
