But why do you make that choice?. Is it just because it sounds good to you?.
I want to pick the option that would be the most demanded search: pictures, photos, any other one?

Overture shows the following:

Keyword : Searched in 1 month
picture : 460036
photo : 1332239

I'd definitely go for "photo"

I suggest you to go for the "Pictures of Seville, Spain" and you can use also "photo of Seville" But more power full is picture you can find out here your self.

Did a quick search one google for Pictures got : 422,000,000 results for photos I got: 695,000,000 . But the contex the word is used is more importan for example pictures could mean photographs or cinema

anupat3l · 12-16-2006, 03:59 PM

I say photo is a better word than pictures... its just sounds better

rick · 12-17-2006, 10:39 PM

Results for photo
monthly searches 1332239
google results 67100000

For picture
monthly 460036
google results 38800000

photo has more searches and a much better search to competition ratio. Of coarse you'll have to use niche phrases as others have suggested.

hispalis · 12-18-2006, 11:07 PM

Thank you! I think I'm going to use both words because the two of them are relevant.

Searches done in November 2006

165958 photo
52445 picture

photo is the more searches then picture that's why photo is the best.

You can't choose the keyword by the searching result from google and overture. You shall choose it based on your content. If it's related with photos, of course you shall use photo as the keyword. But its content is related with pictures like draw by human, snapshots, etc, how can you use photos as the keyword?

Based on the meanings of these 2 word, picture has a wide range, and photo only means images by camera. We can say a photo is a picture, but we can't say a picture is a photo.
