When calculating the profitability of a keyword what are the ideal approximate numbers for demand (amount of searches for keyword) vs. supply (number of web pages in google currently featuring that keyword)?

The ideal is the highest demand you can find and the lowest supply you can find! Laughing

Maybe you want to know a number where it's WORTH to use the keyword?

It not so general to say I believe, but it is recommendable to go for the "long tail", so 3 or more keywords, or 2 keywords, if it's a not so competitive niche.
I have read that had good success (it was with article marketing though) with keywords that have not more than 1000 results for the phrases in quotation marks.

Supply vs. demand could be a good SEO tool, but it's far to be accurate IMO.

The term "results" is linked with the number of spidered pages in which a given keyword is present.

Not necessarily those sites are competitors.
Unrelated newspapers,forums,etc, etc
