For such sites, it is critical to carve out a presence in the crowded (albeit profitable) online marketplace.

The ability to track search hits in real-time and visually display the Long Tail are very popular features, but the main draw of HitTail is its ability to create high- quality, unique suggestions that can be used as writing topics or keywords for cost-effective PPC campaigns," said Mike Levin, creator of HitTail. "These four million suggestions are translating into increased page views and a spike in revenue for our users."
