Does anyone have a keyword generator site that they use and of course what is it?

Please dont tell me to google it, I did, and in an hour still haven't found anything helpful.
Here is an example. I have apic of a red fox. Keywords would be fox, red fox, vulpes vulpes, nature.etc...

with the Keyword generators I have found I get, red fox, junk yard, fox and hound, red dwarf ,none of which would be helpful.

Also someone here recently posted an article on creating keywords, I can't find that either.
any help is appreciated.

Personally, I think you've demonstrated, in your post, you're the best keyword generator. Though, I'd point out that nature is probably not a good keyword for red fox.

If you've shot a lot of photographs you should be able to start out by determining how those photos would fit into a keyword structure created by you. You might consider a main keyword and then sub-keywords, so, for example: ANIMALS>Domestic>chicken or ANIMALS>Wild Animal>fox. If you are shooting many types of fox then you could add a keyword to fox. So, again, another example: PLACES>America>California>Yosemite National Park. How far down the keyword chain you want to go depends on what you shoot. The keyword hierarchy will work best if it starts out general and then gets more specific and also leaves room for adding words. My personal keyword main keyword structure includes ANIMAL, BUILDING, EQUIPMENT, EVENT, LANDSCAPE, NATURE, NAUTICAL, OBJECTS, PEOPLE, PLACE, THEMATIC, TRANSPORT. Your keyword structure will be different based on your interests. I shoot a lot of birds so under ANIMAL I have Wild Animal>bird>crow and then, Wild Animal>bird >eagle, Wild Animal>bird>egret&heron, Wild Animal>bird>hummer, and so on. I would only do this after I have shot multiple images of each type of bird. Additionally, I would keyword images within different categories so that I can find them multiple ways. I hope this helps.

You are obviously searching the internet rather than searching/indexing your files. Google has a help section that will explain 'how various searches' work.
For a start, putting Red Fox as 'Red Fox' will search for just those two words not including 'Red Fox Junk yard' (or anything else with more than the 2 words specified).
I cannot recall the rest of the bouillon search types but Google does list them all.

Have fun

I think keywords are just as bad as they are good. You spent an hour online and got nothing useful. I've used keywords in LR, but more as an exercise than as anything I will need or rely on. The example of the fox shows what's wrong with keyword generators.

Your hierarchy looks intriguing. Any chance you would export and post for us lazy folks? or PM me with link?

Many thanks. I see we travel in the a lot of the same circles. You might want to check your 05 Location Botswana "third entry" for a typo. Going through your list brought back quite a few memories. So an extra thanks for that too.

How many lifetimes did it take to develop this list of keywords?

mborn Loc: Massachusetts

Only since I have been using LR 4

Thanks for the correction I would have found it when I will be in Botswana in May
