What is it with keyword software programs? This is the second one that no longer works because it is dependent upon Overture.com. (Overture is now Yahoo! Search Marketing.) TheDowser can also pull stats from Google, but even that feature isn’t working. At least it was a free download.
Bottom Line: The program is broken. Don’t bother trying it.

You get what you pay for with Good Keywords; that is, nothing. The software appears to be broken. Part of Good Keywords depends on data from Overture.com, which now is Yahoo! Search Marketing. I can understand why that part of the software doesn’t work anymore. However, I couldn’t get any data from Lycos, Teoma, Altavista, MSN, or Google, either.
Bottom Line: Waste of a download.

I was very hopeful for this software; I read several good reviews about it. Everything went well until it tried to connect to its creater’s server to request a license code. Apparently iBizResearch.com no longer exists. All the good reviews were from 2007; I couldn’t find anything from 2008 except the same complaint–no connection to server. So I didn’t even get to try the product. Thankfully I downloaded it for free.
Bottom Line: Don’t waste your time on this one.
