Search AutoComplete (popular examples can be Google Suggest, Yahoo's Search Assist, Destination search on Kayak etc) essentially feeds you suggestions in real-time as you type, suggestions for popular keywords. It is an exciting new feature, with implications to SEO as we know it.

 

PredictAd's Search AutoComplete gives you options for keywords and phrases based on the overall popularity of these terms with the community using the specific search box, not your own browsing habits.

 

Some implications for search marketers and website operators generating revenue through search are:

 

Fewer long tail searches.

AutoComplete provides search suggestions based on the popularity of phrases searched for, so more obscure, long tail terms are far less likely to appear when you start to type.

 

Reduced misspellings

PredictAd's autocomplete corrects most misspellings, so websites that have been using these terms to drive more affordable traffic will need to think of another way and this results in higher search revenue.

 

Increased competition for keywords

The introduction of autocomplete reduces the number of keywords / phrases used by searchers if they tend to go with the search engine's suggestions.

This means that the keywords and phrases that appear in the Suggest box, especially for searches centred around already competitive areas like insurance, will become more desirable, and search will become more lucrative.
