I should turn this into an “asides” blog. This was noted over at Google Blogscoped.
I don’t know who else is using Google Suggest, I’ve had it turned on for so long it is almost second-nature now.
What’s next? Optimizing for suggestions? That’s based on the most frequent searches. How do you do that? Is this a source of marketing intelligence? A new branding metric? For power Google searchers, it’s amazing how accurate those suggestions are. And freakishly weird that other people are searching for the same arcane thing. The Hivemind is really something amazing. The recent spasm of Googlebombing Scientology makes me wonder if suggestions could be a fresh target for blackhat seo’s.
OK, now I see. Don’t waste your time on “expert” advice. These would be the keywords that you need to focus on if you want to rank for your intended SERP. Anyone who uses this trick owes me a lunch.

i think you are mixing up the things like you are mixing seo with politics these both things are different.

OK, am I the only one that sees the irony of a comment from a potentially Muslim SEO?

I’m just shocked that when you searched for “travel” my blog name didn’t appear with flashing neon signs and Google’s certified Stamp of Approval.
