German Christmas SEO Keywords

Well the snow has arrived, the Glühwein is being drunken, the christmas markets are in full swing and the Christmas trees are already up and decorated; so by this time you should either be well underway or you must start today!

Today I will give you some keyword tips on what German words (and the English translation) you should be targeting that might help you this Christmas:

Weihnachten: Christmas

The most important Keyword of them all! But as this Google Global Market Finder search shows – do not discount using the keyword ‘Christmas’ (shows similar english language searches in Germany for the keyword Weihnachten):

Geschenke: Presents/Gifts (don’t use the English word ‘Gift’ in German SEO… it means poison in German!)

Ideen: Ideas (so… Weihnachten Geschenke Ideen)

Spielzeug: Toys

Geschenkideen zu Weihnachten: Christmas gift ideas

Einkaufen: Shopping (or just use ‘Shopping’)

Weihnachten karten: Christmas cards

Heiligabend: Christmas Eve (try: Last minute Heiligabend shopping)

Kaufen: Buy

Adventskalender: Advent calendar

Wunschzettel: Wish list

Frohe Weihnachten: Merry Christmas!

Silvester: New Years Eve

Best of luck with the SEO… and best of luck during the holiday season :)
