I have seen a lot of free online keyword tools, but this one is very unique in that it offers an easy to use interface and can kick-out engine specific keyword lists.

Here is the short description from the website:

BulkWords is a free web application that lets you generate search phrases for use in your SEO and online advertising campaigns such as Google Adwords, Yahoo! Search Marketing and Microsoft AdCenter.

This is probably the coolest and best free online SEO/SEM tool I have seen in awhile! Most keyword density tools do exactly as you would think, show the keyword density for a keyword on a given web page. Well, this tool goes so far beyond that it is hard to call it just a keyword density tool. You have to check it out for yourself to understand what I am talking about.

Keyword Envy is a great (and accurate) free online keyword ranking tool. Even though in free mode the tool is limited to 5 keywords. what I like most about it is that it can track against so many engines and variations of those engines. The current list is this:

- Google (US)
- Google (Canada)
- Google (UK)
- Yahoo
- MSN (separate from Bing, not sure why or how, but it is there)
- Live (separate from Bing, not sure why or how, but it is there)
- Bing
- Ask
- Gigablast (one of my favorite smaller engines)

They also offer an advanced service that combines analytics to tell you how strong your keywords are – how much potential traffic they bring in, what their bounce rate is, and more…..
