Help Choosing Geographic Keywords

[toddo14]

The problem that we are having is that we want to show up for web design searches in Michigan, but are having a hard time determining whether to optimize for "michigan blue widgets" or for "blue widgets michigan".

Overture inventory, Wordtracker and Key. Disc. all didn't seem very helpful for determining which variation is searched more often.

Does anyone know of any tools that help differentiate word order in searches? Or some other way to find out which word ordering we should be optimizing for?

i've done quite alot of geo research and michigan blue widgets will be the way to go

but your target is really very narrow

i would save my energy and spend a bit of coin on a michigan traffic only ad for "blue widgeters" and "blue widgets"
