Overture Keyword Selector Tool
Overture, once a Giant in the PPC insdustry had lost some of its adventage once Google and their PPC, Google Adwords, stormed in.
Back in those days Overture were the PPC management system for both MSN and Yahoo, until purchased by Yahoo and forcing MSN to issue their own version called MSN Ad-Center, which is still considered as the less popular system of the three.
Overture are now basing the data on Yahoo searches and Traffic to determine the keyword popularity.
