Pizza And Beer SEO
Yep, one of our standard recommendations to our clients is that they practice Pizza and Beer SEO. This is how it works. When you’re building a website keyword list you should gather a diverse group of friends, family, and business associates for pizza and beer at a local hot spot. A group of twenty or so should work just fine.
Once you have the group together ask them all to make a list of words that they might enter as a search query to find your business on the web. Then sit back and enjoy your time together over pizza but hold off on the beer for now! Then after an hour or so repeat this process and record the results.
Now, allow your party to get started with the consumption of beer for the following hour. Now repeat the same process asking what keywords the group would use and record these results as well.
Now, your website keyword research kicks into high gear. You will need create a database and record all of the information that you have gathered. You can now comb through your data to see what the common trends are and glean the gems that you might have easily overlooked.
The food and alcohol will affect each person differently and these changes will be observable in a different set of keywords that are developed. Another factor that comes into play is simply the passage of time. The longer that each person has to think about it the more likely that they will choose words that they hadn’t the first time.
It’s actually like having three different groups for market research for the price of one! Not only is Pizza and Beer SEO an effective keyword development strategy, you also save on the cost of surveying three separate groups.
You, as a website owner, have no way of knowing what a persons state of mind is when they are searching for your products or services, in most cases. If the searcher is hungry or well feed will affect how they think. If someone is highly stressed or under the influence these factors will play a significant role in determining what queries that they will use to find something
It is your job to figure this out and implement what you discover both on and off your website. Pizza and Beers SEO provides real insights that will likely never be gleaned from an automated search tool.
Update: 11/14/2008 I just presented a seminar on keyword development here in Tucson where we included Pizza and Beer SEO. The program and presentation were very well received.
Update 12/03/2011: I should point out that we no longer develop websites, but we are heavily involved in developing keyword phrases, especially those of the longtail variety. Also, I recently shared this at a social media training group and it was very well received. The toughest part of SEO is often thinking like your potential customer or client. Think like your customer or client and you will do well.

Got something to say?

Nice article. I would love to try out this technique. I am not sure this technique will work in my business as its not possible to drink, eat and write.
Anyway I will try your technique when I will need some collective work.
Thanks for the article.
I like the Pizza And Beers concept, but isn’t Google’s free keyword tool all you need to generate ideas of what people would type into the search engine?

Wow, another SEO technique. Thanks for this informative and additional knowledge. I might try to experiment on this newest technique for 3-4 weeks and see where it leads me. Thanks so much for posting, will keep this in mind from this day on.
Hm, that’s an interesting idea. I like the concept of asking them multiple times because they’ll think about it a little differently over time. Often when I’m looking back on keyword lists that I had made in the past, I’m amazed at all the keywords I realize I missed at the time. So to add to your strategy, it’s also good to review your lists every couple months or so because your perspective may change by then.
They are highly deprecated in the latest algorithm changes, and may even lead you to a penalization of your website’s SERPs. As a measure of precaution, I recommend a maximum of one site-wide (no matter the number of pages) for every 40 to 50 unique links from 40 to 50 unique domains.
More really bad advice from a spammer!!!!!!!!
Use the title and meta description tags as wise as possible. They are your best choice of avoiding supplemental pages. Try to make each page with it’s own unique title and description, and never repeat more than 20-25% of the title and description tags content on different pages. Use a limited number of characters (8-10) in the title tag, and put the most important of them, relevant to each page, at the beginning.
This is really bad advice from a spammer… Wow, it’s bad!!!!!!!!!
Don’t be a Copycat. Don’t write news or posts just to have something for the big Google. Nowadays, duplicate-content filters are continuously evolving and even if you gain something on the short term you will loose it later. Try to be innovative.

Heh, three of my favorite things. Never thought I would love and enjoy SEO as much as I do. It’s actually something that I wake up in the morning and look forward to doing. I mean, on page SEO is pretty quick, and off page SEO is a bit boring, but the feeling of buying a website and knowing you’ll make it rank better is really fun. Makes me feel talented even. Oh, and of course, pizza and beer go with everything.
Its an interesting idea . You can enjoy your work more by taking food of your own choice. Hurrah. Pizza with Drink. Rocking, I am fond of eating, but good eating .

Wow, now when you you discuss the posts topic?
Your pizza and beer approach to finding relevant keywords is both creative and intriguing. Such a simple concept yet both fun, and i would venture to bet extremely useful. I must try a variation of this at our next after hours company meeting.
However you do it I think it’s always good to get ideas from others as to what they will search for. Being able to judge what potential visitors will search for is half the battle.
On another note, I like the comments you’ve put at the bottom of comments made by spammers. Some people just don’t listen do they – don’t they realise they might learn something if they read posts.
Good article. I’ve always used the Google Keywords Tool exclusively for keywords research, but I’ve recently found out that these results and the keywords my clients use don’t always match.
So nowadays, whenever I visit a new customer, I’ll just ask what his favorite keywords are. I’ll compare his suggestions to the results of the Keywords Tool and sometimes add a few words of my own. This way, you get the best of both worlds, so everybody is happy in the end.
