2) The other way is you can ask your own customers or friends that how do they search on the net to find that particular products or services. Usually, all people think differently and might not use the same keyword phrase to find that product or services. Collect them and store it.
3) Keyword suggestion tools. Type in your keyword and phrases into these tools you will find 100’s of keywords for that particular products or services is searches on the web every month. Tools like Jaaxy will help you to find that how many times these keywords are been searched and how much competition is there for that particular keyword phrases.

Some webmasters and SEO experts use keyword spamming or keyword dumping which is ethical for a good search engine optimization. An ideal density would be anything between 10-15 % keyword densities on the page.
Use keywords which are related to that phrase so that it gets relevancy for that web page.For example When I search for a keyword “dog supplies” I found 100 of related terms which like “dog supplies online” “dog supply store” etc so think and figure out keywords which are more related to that topic.
At this stage, your website content should be ready keep in mind with the 3 top priority factors. This will determine your website success or failure in the search engine. The next stage is keyword marketing.
