Thats exactly right.

I quit preaching the 3 word combinations to get around this thing
because I didnt think anyone was listening.

Heres an example of some searches from my logs:

cheap louisiana homeowners insurance
quote for medical insurance
free car insurance price quote
affordable health insurance in nc
cheap health insurance in PA
free insurance quote
business insurance instant quotes
medigap policies wasington
GROUP HEALTH INSURANCE quotes
online home owners insurance quotes
auto insurance quote massachusetts
Fast Insurance Quote
car ins quote
auto insurance price quotes

Tweaking for more than one or two words would actually boost your site
after the Florida update. Rather than trying to figure this out why
not add some commonly used search terms to your existing terms and
work around this?

Instead of widget how about:

free widget sample
cheap widget
affordable widget
low cost widget
compare widget
Kansas city widget

and the list goes on.

The 3 word thing is fine if your business or search term is versital.
Mine isn't and is vague and only works the term itself. The alternative
adding a word or two before or after gets no business for my search
unfortunateley. I think though for most business's the 3 or even 4 word
search terms really work.
