Bonus Step #2: GKP Hacking
That said, the Google Keyword Tool has two major flaws…
Flaw #1
It only gives you keyword ideas that are very relevant to what you typed.
For example, let’s say your business sells organic food for pets.
So you type "organic dog food" into the tool. This is what you get:
Keyword Planner - Organic Dog Food
As you can see, these are very close variations of “organic dog food”, for example:
“Natural dog food”
"Dog Food Brand"
"Dog food"
I don’t know about you, but I don’t need a fancy tool to come up with keywords like “dog food.”
The same is true for most keywords. GKP is good at coming up with long-tail versions of keywords. But it is not good at generating out-of-the-box keyword ideas.
Flaw #2
You get the same keywords as everyone bahamas mobile database else.
Needless to say, Google Keyword Planner is a very popular keyword tool.
What this means: Keywords you find in GKP tend to be super competitive.
Luckily, there’s an easy way to fix both of these problems: the GKP Hack.
Here’s how it works:
First, go to the Discover New Keywords area of the GKP. Then click Start from a Website.
