Update: With some contributions from the SEO/SEM Group on LinkedIn, there are now over 80 tools and ideas on this list.
Update #2: I’ve updated this post. The original post contained around 60 keyword tools and ideas, but the updated post now contains over 100. Feel free to suggest any tools that I missed in the comments below.
I started doing SEO around 2005 or so and back then, it was pretty easy. Yahoo site explorer was an awesome backlink tool and
provided a ton of backlink data. Google keyword tool was the top keyword research tool because it provided data straight from Google.
Things have definitely changed a lot since then. Yahoo site explorer is long gone and now Google has made moves to hide keyword data. Many keywords are no longer showing in Google Analytics and many people have complained that Google keyword planner shows very little if any long tail keyword data.
A lot of people are saying “just create quality content”, but keyword research and SEO are far from dead. In fact, I was able to increase traffic to this blog by 1,380% in 2014, even though I only created 10 blog posts.
I don’t think that Google will ever conceal all keyword data. They will most likely always display high volume keywords so that Adwords advertisers will be able to target them. After all, Google generates most of its revenue from ads.
So the good news is that we still have access to high traffic money keywords. However, long tail keyword data is still important for a few reasons including the following:
1. It gives you an idea of what people are interested in and provides good content ideas.
2. Seeing patterns in keyword phrases and being able to target them can help SEO’s get even more search engine traffic
3. Long tail keywords bring in 70% or more of search engine traffic to websites, even for sites that are ranking for their main competitive keywords
Although Google Keyword Planner is still useful, SEO’s now have to turn to other sources to get more ideas for keywords. Here are a few ideas on where to get keywords ideas outside of Google’s Keyword Planner and Analytics:
Google Tools
Other Search Engines
Online Keyword Tools
Keyword Suggestion Tools
Other Desktop Keyword Tools
Old Data
Competitive Analysis Tools
Browser Ad-ons and Plugins
Analytics Tools / SEO Suites
Amazon / E-ecommerce Tools
WordPress Plugins
LSI or Related Keywords
Other Search Tools
Other Ideas
Google Tools (1-4)
Google Keyword Planner was made for Adwords users, but is the most popular Google tool for keyword research. However, here are some more Google tools that can be helpful.
1. Google Webmaster Tools
https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools
Google Webmaster Tools is currently the most accurate way to see what keywords people are using to land on your website. The data is only available for 90 days, so be sure to back it up every few months or so.
Since Google defaults to encrypted search now, Analytics does not show much of the data. With Google Webmaster Tools, however, you can view these encrypted searches.
2. Display Planner Adwords Tool
https://adwords.google.com/da/DisplayPlanner/Home
YouTube keyword tool showed what video watchers are searching for. In September of 2014, it was replaced with the Display Planner’s Adwords Tool.
3. Google Correlate
http://www.google.com/trends/correlate
With Google Correlate, you can find keywords that exhibit similar trend patterns to the phrase you type in. A good way to find possible related search terms, although sometimes the terms shown are not related.
4. Adwords
http://www.google.com/adwords
Running your own Adwords campaigns can be beneficial for finding keywords for your organic SEO campaigns. Adwords provides better data than just running Analytics alone.
Other Search Engines (5-6)
1. Bing Keyword tool
http://www.bing.com/toolbox/keywords
I know that Bing and Yahoo search are used significantly less than Google, but Bing keyword tool can still provide a few ideas for keywords and it is free to use. Yahoo and Bing do still get significant search volume (25-29% of search volume according to Comscore in 2013) and it does provide real data from organic search so it is worth looking at.
Despite Google’s dominance, Bing and Yahoo (which uses Bing search for its results) still get significant traffic. Enough so that it can provide real and useful keyword data, particularly for terms that have enough volume to be worth targeting.
Considering that Bing still has millions of users, if a keyword doesn’t get enough data to show up in Bing’s data, is it even worth targeting? To use the Bing Keyword tool, sign up for a Bing Webmaster Tools account.
2. Bing Ads Intelligence (BAI)
Bing Ads Intelligence is an Excel plugin that allows you to do keyword research using Microsoft Excel. It uses Bing’s keyword data and can be downloaded here (http://advertise.bingads.microsoft.com/en-us/b/bing-ads-intelligence). Requires Excel 2007 or higher and an active Bing ads account.
BAI was intended as a tool to help people that want to advertise on Bing’s network, but it is also a good keyword research tool for SEO’s. I like that this tool uses Excel, since Excel is something that pretty much everyone knows how to use. Some useful information includes monthly traffic, demographics data, and other useful information.
Online Keyword Tools (7-33)
1. SEM Rush
http://www.semrush.com
SEM Rush is a competitor research tool that provides your competitors keywords and where they are ranking. The free version of the tool provides just a few keywords, but the paid version provides a lot more.

1. Ubersuggest
http://ubersuggest.org
You can also go to Ubersuggest and use their free tool to save some time, although Google keyword suggestion is a good tool for digging a little deeper and finding more keywords.
2. Google Keyword Suggestion
When you are typing in the Google search box, it suggests keywords for you. Even when Google Keyword Tool was still providing a lot of data, I was still using Google keyword suggestions to generate content ideas because it provided way more keywords than the keyword tool.

Old Data (58-59)
A good way to find evergreen keyword ideas is to look at old sites and old Google Analytics data.
1. Other Blogs and Websites
Another idea is to go to other blogs and websites in your niche and see what they are writing about, especially if you know that they do SEO on their sites. I usually find a few ideas that I overlooked through traditional keyword research when I look through other websites.
Old Made for Adsense (MFA) sites are particularly good sources and I have scoured these sites for ideas for my own sites, especially ones that were created before 2011. These were sites that were specifically made to get Adsense revenue by targeting keywords.
Older MFA sites had the keywords blatantly displayed in the navigation links and as page titles. Sometimes you will have to look further than the first couple of pages in Google to find these sites as many are no longer ranking well in Google. You can also use Bing instead to pull up these sites more easily in searches.
2. Old Analytics Data
If you have older websites that have been around for awhile, take a look at older Analytics data before when Google started to conceal data with encrypted search. This can be a good way to find keywords related to evergreen topics.
You can also use Google Trends to see if searches for those keyword phrases are declining, increasing, or remaining steady.
Competitive Analysis Tools (60-69)
Some competitive analysis tools can be used to obtain keyword intel from your competition.

Other Ideas (105-117)
Here are a few other ideas for generating keywords.
1. Survey and Engage with Your Audience
Another overlooked opportunity for getting real keywords is to simply survey your audience. Ask them open ended questions and see how they reply. Look for patterns in the language used.
If you ask enough people, then you might start to see patterns in the words that they use. As Google continues moving towards better serving conversational search, this can be a good way to come up for keywords that might not show up in other tools.
2. Internal Site Search
Using internal site search can also be a good method of keyword analysis if your site has a lot of traffic, as this data is information that you can access. You can see what keywords and phrases that people are searching for on your site. This data can also be useful in coming up with new content ideas.
3. Analyze Traffic to URL’s
If you are creating a ton of content or have a large site, then analyzing traffic to website URL’s can be highly beneficial. Basically, you look at the URL’s that are getting the most search traffic and then take any keywords from those pages and plug them into your keyword tool of choice. From there, you can analyze keyword opportunities and make educated estimates on volume.
4. Use Filters
For advanced Analytics users, you can use filters to get back some keyword not provided data. EConsultancy wrote a good article about how to do this.
EConsultancy – How to Use Filters to Get Back Some Keyword Not Provided Data
http://econsultancy.com/blog/8342-how-to-steal-some-not-provided-data-back-from-google

6. Hashtagify.me

You can enter a hashtag to see related hash tags on Twitter. The free version only provides a few, but the $5/month paid version provides up to 50.
7. nTopic
http://www.ntopic.org/tools.php
nTopic is a tool that suggest keywords for the articles that you write to increase relevancy. A study that they showcased on their site shows how adding relevant keywords can increase search traffic.
8. Brainstorming Sessions
A brainstorming session is a great way to come up with some good keyword ideas. Tools don’t always show you related keywords. To get even more ideas, get a team together and create a database of keyword ideas that all team members can contribute to.
9. Print sources
Industry magazines, newsletters and direct mail are another possible source for ideas. Look through these to find words and phrases that you might have missed.
10. Social monitoring and listening tools
Social monitoring tools like mention.com can provide some new ideas. Sometimes, for example, people will reword the default wording of your tweets and pins or add their own hash tags.
11. Conference presentations / Slideshare
Watching conference presentations or viewing Slideshare Powerpoints can be a good way to find more phrases to target.
12. News Feeds and Aggregators / Industry Bookmarking sites
Check out news feeds for your industry and also aggregators and bookmarking sites like Scoop.it. Headlines can be good inspiration and a source for keywords, especially if you see the same terms repeated in various articles.
13. Domain Search
People often register domains for competitive keywords, even if they don’t plan to use them. Also, when searching for domains, it also suggests alternate domain names if the one you want is taken, which can provide other keyword ideas. Pay attention to if all the domain extensions are purchased (including less popular ones) and how much people are trying to sell the domain names for (if they aren’t in use) as this can be an indicator or competitiveness and keyword value. You can try this out at GoDaddy domain search.

About Brian Liang
Thats an impressive list! thanks for putting it together. hittail is an interesting one which is used years ago. I assume they keep on collecting keywords and now must have a huge database which is very useful, post [not provided]
Thanks Nick! I’m glad you liked it – it took forever to write. Yeah, it look likes HitTail has evolved a bit since I first tried them out years ago.
Have used HitTail before and found it to me somewhat beneficial.
I am a PHP Developer. I have developed several keyword research tools that are available on my website http://www.alreadycoded.com/category/keyword-tools
Brain Please visit my website and mention my tools in your post if you like. Thanks

http://bit.ly/1Mx9xJx

Good stuff, Brian. I have to be honest that I hadn’t heard of most of these. Looks like I need to dedicate some time this weekend to nerd out and test them 🙂
Thanks Brian! I’m glad you like it – took forever to research and write this post. I’m going to have to dig a little deeper too into some of these 🙂
wow.. this is a totally useful list. Thank you Brian for your hardwork.

Awesome list! Nerdy Data looks super fun. Thanks for putting this list together. Looking forward to testing these tools.
Thanks Shannon! Nerdy Data is pretty cool and I think it will get even better as they continue to develop it.
Thanks for this list! This is awesome stuff. I suggest to add this Tool to your list as well (link removed). Thank you for your effort.
Thanks for stopping by. Thanks for sharing, but that doesn’t appear to be a keyword research tool.
Great amount of information you got posted here. This is a valuable resource of information for anyone looking to do keyword research. Have used several of the applications and tools provided on this list. Making use of any of these are of a great benefit.
Thanks Ty. It’s great that these companies came out with all these useful tools.
Hey Brian Lang,
Keyword Research is the very essential process on blogging. Wow really I don’t know there there are this much of tools available for keyword research.
Thank your for writing this post, keep writing like this..
Thanks a lot. I plan on writing more posts like this too.
I am doing blogging since 2012 for my blog I am using Google Keyword Tool which one gives exact related keywords and I suggest to use Google Keyword Tool.
Google keyword tool was replaced with Google keyword planner
Hi Brian,
Nice list you have put together here, a number of tools in there I’ve never even heard of, never mind used before!
Just got a little bit to add to your Market Samurai description which your readers may find useful though…
For a while now the software has been integrated with Majestic SEO which provides really good competition analysis data. I bought it years and years ago and still use it at least a couple of times a week purely for the competition analysis data it provides on the scraped keywords it generates.
I’ve covered it pretty extensively in my review of the software on my blog, feel free to include a link to it in your article if you like! 😛 (http://www.jamie-anderson.com/market-samurai-review)
All the best Brian,
Jamie.
Hi Jamie. I heard that they used Majestic at one point, but the latest post on their blog says they switched to Google Planner. So who knows – they haven’t updated their blog in 6 months. I think I’ll just leave it for now. Thanks for stopping by.
Long days I am using Google Adword keyword tool it shows amazing related keywords before I don’t heard these kind of tool after landing into your site I got some keyword research tool. Thanks for sharing…..
Welcome, glad you liked it.
I like the list. Thanks for sharing.
Welcome Vikram – thanks for stopping by
Wow Brian, the resource to end all resources on keyword research.
I need to try a few of them out.
I am doing ok with Keywordplanner, but perhaps there are better tools!
Which is your favourite? for simple keyword research with a free tool
thanks
ashley
Hi Ashley. I actually use Keyword Planner, although I do want to look into Jaxxy and Boostsuite which have free versions or free trials and also offer keyword volume info. There are still quite a few tools on here that I need to play around with.
What an effort, putting together a list like that.
Superb.
Thanks Phil – glad you liked it
Thank you very much for your beautiful list!
Welcome, Gian Luca – glad you found it useful!
Very great collection, Many keyword tools are not even i heard of.. It really take too much time to make research of.. superb!!! all the best Brian!!1
Thanks Sivani!
Brilliant list. Thanks for sharing Brian. What’s you Twitter handle? couldn’t find you.
Thanks Omar – I see you found me on Twitter also. Have a great day!
Thought you had a personal one as well. Have a great day as well Brian and I look forward for awesome resources.
sure a very nice list but who has the time to try them all? It would better and helpfull to add the most important pros and cons for each one of them
Thanks
Hey Brian – great list!
I’d say SEO Rank Monitor (seorankmonitor.com) would be a great add to the list as well… What do you think? 🙂
Hi Wilco – thanks for your suggestion. Does it have a keyword research tool integrated? If so, I’d be happy to add it.
Great list. This is very helpful. Google tools are really really good and it’s good to know that there are alternatives tools too.
Thanks – glad you found it useful.
thankyou this is great list for me, helpul and useful 🙂
Welcome!
Keyword Revealer is hands down the best tool for keyword research, glad to see it on the list..
There is a FREE option, it’s got the keyword difficulty score which is crucial to deciding where to put your efforts, as well as other data points on your competition.
Who ever made that tool did an awesome job!
Hi Brian, thanks for adding the price for paid tools. Could you make one more change. Keyword Revealer is now offering only three keywords searches per day for free. People have started loving it and now its time for Keyword Revealer to monetize it.
Updated – thanks for informing me of this change
Does anyone know whether Keyword Revealer uses Braod Search or Exact search ?
Quite a bunch of useful stuffs you’ve listed here. I recently came across a keyword suggestion tool that comes with an additional feature of generating interrogative questions http://sg.serpstat.com/ – and its free! Have you tried it?
Hi. Good find – Thanks for bringing this tool to my attention. I’ll be sure to add it when I update the post again.
Great list. This is very helpful.
Data doesn’t always mean numbers. Data is information. You need content performance information (Buzzumo), and customer acquisition data (Colibri.io), customer information (Kissmetrics), and other actionable information. Google Analytics alone just doesn’t cut it anymore.
Thank you, for lists Colibri.IO.
Welcome, Karol. There certainly are tools that provide analytics data beyond Google Analytics.
Thanks for the info and the suggest tool. Do you guys also have a strategy on which keywords to exclude in campaigns?
We just exclude the ones that aren’t relevant to our content.
You understand, many persons are hunting around for this information
Good work. But are there any comparison lists available which show the key differences between SEO tools?
Then we can make an informed decision.
Thanks
Not that I know of. Guess you just have to try a few and pick which one you like the best.
What a massive list of great tools 🙂 Even happier to see Mention.com among it.
Great post!
Thanks, Patricia!
Hi Brian,
Its interesting to have this long list of keyword research tools. Indeed, they are alternatives to Keyword Planner from Google.
I have used a couple in the past including Long Tail Pro, Market Samurai, WordTracker and the Moz Keyword Tool. These are excellent tools.
I cannot mention any again but any online marketer can access and try out one or two of these tools to improve their optimization!
Thanks for sharing this excellent post. Its worth bookmarking!
I left this above comment in kingged.com where this post was shared.
Thanks Sunday – glad you liked the post
Great round-up Brian. Thanks for visiting my site and pinging my via my vCita widget to let me know about this excellent resource. – Neil
Thanks Neil – glad you liked it!
Brian,
What a fantastic list – wow! I just started to sell on Amazon and am looking for a tool that will tell me how many searches are done each month/year for a particular product. I was told there is a tool called “Merchant Words” that will do this. Do you know of any others? Thanks very much and thanks for a great website here.
Hi Greg,
You might also want to check out Freshkey, which is an Amazon keyword suggestion tool. Also, feel free to search through the post for “Amazon” for a few other keyword suggestion tools that include Amazon.
Unfortunately I have read a few poor comments on their admin and support.
Good list. Something to get busy with next week.
Thanks a bunch.
Thanks Andreas!
Thank you for doing such great homework and for providing this information to your fellow marketing associates. I’m grateful!

What are your thoughts on Keywordxp?
Hi Nathan – I haven’t tried that one yet. Thanks for asking, I’ll be sure to research it and add it to the list next time I update it.
Nice
That’s a great sharing! I would like to add one more great keyword SEO tool. SERanking.com is not a great rank tracker, but it is a good keyword suggestion tool. It also helps to get a website audit analysis and monitor backlinks in search engines automaticaly.
Hi Irina. Thanks for letting me know about this tool – I’ll add it to the list on the next update.
This post is so cool and insightful! You really had done your homework to come up with this! It has answered most of my questions!
Thanks, Stanley!

Thanks one more time Brian!
Welcome, Nicolas – glad it was helpful!
thanks for your helpful info, i am a newbie in seo world. i think http://tools.seochat.com/tools/related-keywords-tool/ is a great tool to find out new keywords.
An amazing list I recently set up a site but screwed up badly with the keywords and am trying to recover the situation so hopefully I will get a few helpful tools from this lot
Many thanks
Thanks, Russ – glad you found it helpful!
Hi,
keywordsuggest.org is only a affiliate page, maybe you should remove it from the list ,
but many great tools are in your list, unfortunately they are often commercial
Thanks for letting me know. It appears that this tool has been shut down, so I removed it.
Hi Brian, Thanks for the post
Have you tried SeoStack.
It has more features and collects keywords from multiple different sources in one place.
Download it at http://www.seostack.net/
And let me know what you think.
I haven’t tried SEO Stack yet. Thanks for letting me know about it.
Free and Open source tool helping to find the long tail keywords http://keywords.zone
I think semrush is great for keyword research, you can get many keywords by analyzing similiar sites. saves a lots of time. what is your opinion on it?
Agreed – SEMRush is a popular tool and it also has other SEO features that go beyond keyword research.
Wow, @Brian thank you for compiling such a comprehensive keyword research tool list.
I am pretty familiar with Moz keyword difficulty tool but it has a daily limit of 200 keywords. It also takes sometime to actually get results and is pretty expensive.
I wonder if someone knows a comparable keyword difficulty checker that costs less?
Hi Tony. I haven’t played around with it much myself, but I heard KWFinder might be worth looking at for keyword difficulty.
I would love to know more bout KWFinder. Have you tried their paid plans? Is it worth investing in it because I am thinking of.
Hi Akshat. I have not tried it.
Great post, Brian. I found the new keyword planner to be really bad. I really perfer the old keyword research tool because it gave me insight. I wish they gave users the option to use the old or new keyword research tools. Ubersuggest seems really cool and I’ll definitely try that one out. Thanks for the keyword tool suggestions and have a great day!
Welcome, Anthony – glad you liked it!
Hi! Please add Topvisor.com Keyword Research Tools to your amazing compilation.
Thanks!
Will check it out – thanks!
Awesome. Many tools I have never see before. Thanks for the list.
Man, glad I came across this. I’ve been looking to compare different tools and thought I had a good grasp on everything that was out there. I have a broad idea about the SEO competition. I have tried quite a few but have not come across to one that seems to both give an accurate prediction and at the same time scalable. But I lean heavily on manual review (not real scalable, I know). But, once I have found a decent opportunity using a tool like SEMrush, I’ll run the query through Google and analyze the first page results by MOzbar domain authority. Not the most accurate metric, but a solid directional cue.
This post is such amazing! Most of them are really useful.. Thank you!
Keep with the good work…
Thank you, Vrushali!
Very useful list for finding keyword search. I was using only google. But these other tools are also friendly.
Thanks
Welcome, Gayatri. Glad you found it helpful.
k-meta.com – is pretty similar to SEMRush, but gives more info on free plan….
Indeed a great post about keyword research.
It is true that keyword research is the very 1st step to target the right traffic from search engines like Google. I have seen so many people who never does keyword research and always keep themselves busy in writing articles on different different random keywords which is not good.
If We really want to get potential traffic which can converts easily then we must have to target the right keyword.
For a productive work, every expert suggest to target long tail keywords with having low competition. Because long tail keywords with low competition are easily to rank rather than short tail high competitive keywords.
I always use Google Keyword Planner to check the keyword search volume and Long Tail Pro for keyword competition score. I am glad that You have covered such an indepth article on keyword research.
Thanks for sharing it with us. 😀
Welcome, John – happy to help!
Hey BRIAN !
Have you checked our keyword research tool ? http://keywordshitterpro.com/ ? Will be a great addition to your list (this article) .
Thanks.
I took a quick look, just been busy lately.
Lovely post.
Just one point: why we need Answerthepublic if we have free search suggestion from sg.serpstat.com, which is way bigger in dbs?
Hi guys, great article. I’ve been using KWFinder for some time and it’s my favourite tools as it has many other useful metrics and stuff 🙂
Backlinks from high PR pages boosts our organic traffic to some extent. I have personally experienced it for one of site. But the PR should be high and should not be spammer.
Hi Galen. High authority backlinks certainly help, especially when combined with good on page optimization.
Hey Brian,
I just developed a new (unique) free keyword research tool, and was wondering if you’d mind giving it a quick go?
It’s the only tool that extracts keywords from Reddit. I think it’s a great way to really get inside the heads of your audience when doing initial research.
If you’d like to give it a look, it’s called Keyworddit (just add “.com” to the end).
Hi Dale! Very cool tool idea, I’ll definitely be checking it out. Sounds like a great way to dig into some specific niches to find keyword ideas.
Thanks Brian for listing up the tools!
Another recently launched free one is Twinword Ideas. It gives LSI and long-tails with search volume and competition, so it is great for blogging.
Hi Ashton – thanks for bringing this tool to my attention! I’ll check it out.
I agree with you that keyword analyze is very important for us and also being a part of our search engine optimization and internet marketing process. But Recently the Google Keyword Planner is not shows the exact search volume anymore (they give us a range number as the result), what I want to ask here is : Do you know some other tools or websites to give us the exact search volume?
Keyword volume was never completely accurate anyway, so I wouldn’t obsess over it too much. But try keywordtool.io or SERP’s keyword tool.
Hi,

Welcome, Ritik – glad you found it useful!
Thanks for sharing the information
Great list. I am not aware of some of the tools listed here. Thanks for the writing and share,
Great list very useful for me.
Keyword research is one of, if not THE most valuable, things you should do when thinking about doing any SEO. An entire SEO campaign based off on keywords that have been incorrectly chosen would be heaps of work to have to redo, and not to mention tons of content you would have to rewrite. It’s especially important nowadays considering the structure of Google’s most recent algorithm which looks into how deep your content goes on the subject and how much of a industry expert you are.
Certainly! A lot of people have blown off keyword research since Google’s tools don’t make it easy to do any more, but it’s still valuable.
Thanks for the great listing…. I am using some of them and they are very useful for me.
