Guide to Finding Related Keyword Phrases for Keyword Research


Finding related keywords is a critical part of the keyword research process. By discovering keywords that are related but less obvious you can unlock a brand new source of targeted, conversion-friendly traffic to your site.

Thorough keyword research entails uncovering synonyms, variations and semantically related terms and phrases, in addition to phrases that include the keyword you initially set out to research.

Aggregating a list of related keyword phrases is beneficial for both paid and organic search marketing campaigns, in that it helps you:

  • Expand the breadth of your web content coverage for your niche topics
  • Determine which synonyms and variations have the most relative search volume
  • Capture traffic from searchers who may be using less popular variations of your keywords
