Hi,

What are the Difference between short tail and long tail keyword?

Thank you....

Long-tail keywords are keywords that have 3 or more words in them. The more keywords you have, the more targeted it will be. Short-tail is then obviously two or fewer keywords.

If the main keyword you're optimizing for is "berlin zoo" and "zoo in berlin", that will be your short tail.

Long tail keywords are often sentences, more words or near keywords like: "hotels near berlin zoo", "zoo berlin free tickets" etc.

Short tail: diet, diet plans, detox diet
Long tail: low cholesterol diet, diet solution program

I hope you get an idea.

Also, generally, long tail keywords have lesser searches than short tail.

Thank you...
