Identifying LSI terms
There are many ways to find a map of terms which search engines consider to be related or descriptive of a similar topic. Getting this list, and figuring out the right distribution of the terms for your own content, will help you to benefit from LSI SEO techniques.
Here is a simple method you can do at any time, if you use Firefox:
- Decide on your central search term, e.g. disease
- Prefix it with a tilde and type it into Google: ~disease
- Use the Advanced Search option to change to 100 results per page
- Copy and paste the string below, exactly, into your URL bar and press enter
javascript:d=document;a=d.getElementsByTagName('em');b=Array();for(var c=0;c<a.length;c++){f=a[c].textContent.toLowerCase();(b[f])?(b[f]+=1):(b[f]=1)};e='';for(var a in b) e+=a+' x '+b[a]+'<br>';d.innerHTML=e;

Enjoy!
