One of the recent posts by Site Visibility informed that Google has updated their keyword suggestion tool. In fact, even we also noticed the same thing. The update tool will help you target local keywords during research.
Here's a screencapture of the Google Adword keyword Tool:

This tool will show both local search volume and global search volume. Under the local column you'll find results specific to your targeted country, language and selection from the Match Type drop-down menu. Whereas the global column will include traffic of all countries, languages and selection from the Match Type drop-down menu.
This new feature will surely help in building and focusing keyword research to a specific country. However, it is also found that the local aspect of the tool is not as local as it could be, but it is too early to make any firm conclusions.

A good way to get keyword suggestions is to use Google Adwords keyword tool. First, you need an Adwords account. Then start a new PPC campaign for your site and use the keyword tool to find not only keywords that people have searched on but also their relative popularities.
Google offer several great keyword tools that should be utilized during the research process. Start with the Adwords keyword tool, then try the Google insights, along with the Search-based Keyword Tool – and you will uncover some great keywords or find keywords that you can throw in some modifiers and go for the long tail-
thanks you for very usefull information !!
It seems like keyword research is getting more and more ambiguous and difficult as the algorithms get more advanced. People are approaching keyword research a lot differently these days and focusing on words that are trending up with little competition. I will be writing a little about this topic soon.
