Wordtracker vs. KeywordSpy

Dozens of keyword tools proliferated nowadays in the market, but two of the most talked and raging in SEO forums and blogs are Wordtracker and KeywordSpy. To gauge these tools’ individual potential, I subscribed to them and did a couple of tests and runs to prove their worth in keyword research. Allow me to enumerate the things I found out. Obviously, the monthly subscription for Wordtracker ($49.36) is almost half-lower than KeywordSpy ($89.95). If price was the only determining edge, Wordtracker would be the preferred system. If you’re on a budget, Wordtracker is the obvious choice since it’s less than half the price of KeywordSpy. It also has flexible pricing schemes that allow you to subscribe for about $8 for a day or $250 for a year. But if you are test and analyze the results with reality (like testing in Google), it will surely appear that KeywordSpy has more accurate keyword data, more frequent updates than Wordtracker. Also, if you are to compare the interface, KeywordSpy is more user-friendly and well-designed. Oh, I like the blue theme of the site! (Excuse the personal comment, anyway).
