Search volume
An estimate based on international search-data providers; usually reliable for high-frequency phrases, but for very local or brand-new phrases "—" may be shown instead; a fabricated number is worse than no number.

Research keywords before you write, not after you fail
Most content that never gets seen was doomed from day one: a keyword nobody searches for, or one where the competition is market giants. Keyword research means determining, before a single word is written, exactly what phrase the target audience types and how hard it is to compete for.
- No sign-up needed
- Topic clustering
- Real search volume, CPC & competition
- Honest data, no fake numbers
The path our team walks with this tool every day
Five steps, from one real word to a handful of pages that each answer one intent.
-
1
A real seed
Not an abstract word, but the thing your actual customer says.
-
2
Read the list
Scrolling is not reading. Every row is a different search intent.
-
3
Group by intent
Informational or commercial. Each needs different content.
-
4
Save the output
With a free account, every suggestion list stays in your panel.
-
5
One page per cluster
A few targeted pages, each answering exactly one intent.
A few pages, one per intent
Do not write one page for every phrase. A few targeted pages, one per intent, rank better over time.
Seemerce Keyword Suggestion Tool
A seed phrase, like "cooking classes" or "buy women's shoes," is entered to surface dozens of related keywords, real questions users ask, and long-tail phrases. Right here, no sign-up.
What Is Keyword Research, and Why Is It SEO's Most Profitable Step?
Keyword research means identifying the exact phrases the target audience searches on Google, and measuring two things about each one: how many people search for it (search volume) and how hard it is to reach page one for it (keyword difficulty). This step is also called "keyword research," and the common mistake is underrating it and jumping straight to writing.
An article could target "kitchenware," a generic keyword big stores have competed for over years, or the same effort could go into "stainless steel pot for gas stoves," far less competition and purchase intent right at that moment. Keyword research makes exactly this choice data-driven, not a guess.
The goal isn't one keyword, it is a topic cluster; someone searching "stainless steel pot" likely also asks about "stainless steel vs. Teflon" later. Seeing this cluster together builds a content architecture Google recognizes as authoritative.
Step-by-Step Keyword Research With This Tool
This section is not theory; it is the exact path the Seemerce team executes every day with this same tool.
1
Start with a real seed
Not an abstract keyword, but something the real customer actually says. Absent certainty, the main product or service name is the right starting point.
2
Read the suggestion list, don't just scroll it
The tool above builds dozens of combinations: with "how to," "price," "best," and the alphabet. Every row carries a different search intent.
3
Sort keywords by intent
Some phrases are informational (the user wants to learn), some are commercial (the user is close to buying). Each requires different content.
4
Save your output
With a free sign-up on the dashboard, every suggestion list is saved and rank tracking and competitor monitoring can be set up for them later.
5
Write one page per cluster
Not one page for everything; several targeted pages that each answer exactly one search intent rank better over the long run.
Search Volume, Keyword Difficulty & User Intent, No Fake Stats
Many free online tools display a number for local-language keywords that even they don't trust. This system is built on transparency instead:
Keyword difficulty
The formula is transparent: it measures the strength of page-one competitors, not a black box. A high number means tougher competitors, not that ranking is impossible, just that the scale of the contest is specified upfront.
User intent (search intent)
The most important, least-measured metric. A simple method: search the phrase itself on Google and identify what kind of page dominates the top results, an article, a store, or a comparison. That same kind is what gets written.
CPC and Ad Competition, a Signal Many Overlook
Search volume specifies "how many"; CPC and ad competition specify "how much commercial value." These two numbers come from the Google Ads system, but carry high utility for organic keyword research too.
CPC is the average price advertisers pay per click on that keyword. High CPC typically signals strong purchase intent; ranking organically for such a keyword carries more value long-term, even with lower search volume.
Ad competition shows how many advertisers bid on the same keyword; it is not directly "SEO difficulty," but combined with keyword difficulty it delivers a truer picture.
An honest note: our data provider has no numbers for the Iranian market specifically, so instead of a fabricated figure we display "—"; for other countries you see real, current numbers.
Local Language Is the Problem, Not a Technical Footnote
Most of the world's keyword research tools are built for English and simply "translate" local languages. That is exactly where the problem starts:
Character-set variants and spacing. The same word typed with slightly different regional character forms or spacing reads as identical to a human searcher, but some tools count them as separate keywords and cut real search volume in half.
Phonetic/Latin-script typing. Some local users type using the Latin alphabet phonetically instead of native script; ignoring this means ignoring a real segment of the market.
The keyword suggestion tool operates directly on real local search data, not a machine translation of an English tool.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the keyword suggestion tool really free?
Yes. Without signing up, searching and viewing suggestions is possible. To save lists and link to rank tracking, a free account is sufficient; the free tier is permanent, not just a few trial days.
What's the difference from getting ideas from competitors?
They complement each other. Keyword research shows what users say; competitor analysis shows what content has been built around those words.
What does it mean if no search volume is shown?
Reliable data was not available for that phrase. Instead of guessing, "—" is shown; absence of a number does not mean the keyword is worthless.
How many keywords are enough per page?
One main keyword and 2-4 related ones, fitting naturally. There is no fixed number; artificial repetition is itself penalized.
Can I export my keyword list?
In the dashboard, CSV export of saved lists is available.
