Keyword research tools
Get Fast Keyword Suggestions With KWFinder
Quickest keyword tool ever! This will show you how tough the competition is for keywords (including TF & CF from Majestic), & Unique linking IPs for the top 10 results to give you a nice overview of what each SERP result looks like.
Get FREE Keyword Research With The HOTH Keyword Research Tool
This is basically a free version of SEMRush – Just put in a seed keyword and it will give you all kinds of variations as well as traffic, CPC, and more.
Get Keyword Ideas With “Google Suggest Scraper” UberSuggest
When you go to Google and search a term, Google will often suggest variations or modifiers to help you complete your search. This tool pulls in all the suggestions and finds related keywords as well. This is a great free tool for finding keyword ideas, volume, and more!
Get Actual Customer Questions Answer The Public
I absolutely love this tool! Similar to Ubersuggest, but with even more! You can use this to find out what kinds of questions people are search for which makes it perfect for generating blog ideas.
Content optimization tools
