Keyword ideas with real numbers, free
Most free keyword generators give you a list of phrases and no way to tell which matter. This one returns the suggestions and related searches that Google users actually type around your seed term, with the monthly search volume and a 0-to-100 difficulty score for each, from the same data Keywords Explorer uses.
It is free with a free account (the account is what keeps bots and scrapers from burning through the lookups). The first five keyword ideas are shown in full; the rest of the list shows its numbers with the keyword masked, so you can see how much is there before you decide whether the full list is worth credits in Keywords Explorer.
How to use it
- Step 1
Enter a seed term
A product, a problem, a topic. Pick the country; each of the 91 available has its own Google data.
- Step 2
Read the ideas
Five come back spelled out with their volume and difficulty. The rows below show their numbers with the words blurred, which tells you the size and shape of the topic.
- Step 3
Go deeper when it is worth it
Keywords Explorer unmasks the whole list and adds CPC and intent, the twelve-month trend, filters, saved keywords, CSV export and the Google AI Overview check, at one credit per keyword with no subscription.
What it is good for
- A quick sense of a topic: is anyone searching for this, and how hard would it be to rank
- Titles and subheadings: the suggestions are the phrasings people use, which is what a heading should echo
- Deciding whether to buy credits: five real rows and the shape of the rest is enough to know whether a full Keywords Explorer search will pay for itself
What each column means
Two of the fields Keywords Explorer shows, from the same data.
- Volume
- Average searches a month in the chosen country.
- KD (keyword difficulty, 0 to 100)
- How strong the pages in the top ten are, by their backlinks. Lower is easier; under 30 is open to most sites.
- Updated
- When the data for that keyword was last refreshed.
Questions people ask
Is the keyword generator really free?
Yes. It needs a free SEO Stuff account and nothing else; no credits, no credit card. Five ideas per search are shown in full and the rest are masked; the full list, filters and export are in Keywords Explorer, which runs on credits bought once (400 for $49, 3,000 for $99).
Why do I need an account?
Bots and scrapers would otherwise run the lookups dry. The account also gives you the other free tools: the AI visibility checker, the rank checker, the DR checker, the AI crawler checker, the headline analyzer and the title and meta generator.
Where do the ideas come from?
Google's keyword suggestions and related searches for your seed term, with volume from Google's keyword data and difficulty from the SEO data provider SEO Stuff licenses.
How many ideas does it show?
Up to 100 rows per search: five with the keyword spelled out and the rest with their volume and difficulty visible and the keyword blurred.
Does it show CPC or intent?
Not in the free generator; it shows volume and difficulty. Keywords Explorer adds CPC, search intent, the twelve-month trend and the AI Overview check, at one credit per keyword.
