Automatic Keyword Research

The keywords that SEOmonitor adds to your campaign in the setup wizard (if you don't upload your own list)

Updated over 10 months ago

While setting up your campaign in the wizard, you have the option of letting SEOmonitor choose keywords for your campaign automatically, so that you can start working with the campaign as soon as it is set up, without having to worry about importing or uploading keywords.

This Automatic Keyword Research is powered by our Keyword database and OpenAI.

Where do we get the keywords from? (by source order)

  1. Our keyword database: the same one that fuels our Keyword Explorer platform.

  2. Your Google Search Console account (if connected).

  3. AI-powered Automatic Keyword Research engine.

When you add a brand new or non-ranking website where we are unable to retrieve sufficient keywords from these sources using just your website's domain, we’ll use the content of your website’s top pages together with our AI-powered engine to retrieve additional relevant keywords.

Filtering out the noise

How do we filter out the noise and only keep the best keywords for your domain?

  • The process above provides us with as many potential relevant keywords as possible.

  • The second part of our process is collecting as much data about them as possible and removing the ones that are not valuable enough.

We remove keywords to filter out noise based on the following criteria:

  • Low-value keywords: 0 searches or extremely low search volume (<40 searches).

  • Duplicate or redundant keywords: close variations of the main keyword or misspellings.

  • Low-relevance keywords: Brands of other websites or Low relevance keywords - where the competition does not rank either (e.g. Apple ranks 20 for “Cupertino”, but Samsung and Huawei do not rank for it at all, so it seems not that relevant of a query to track).

Automatic Keywords in the Rank Tracker

If you want to have SEOmonitor fetch automatic keywords for you after you have created your campaign, this is possible, too! Simply select the Add automatic keyword suggestions option when you're adding new keywords to your campaign, and SEOmonitor will add automatic keywords.

Note: Our process of filtering out the noise may lead to a discrepancy between the keywords automatically added in SEOmonitor and the keywords you know your website is ranking for or is targeting. It might also lead to a lesser number of keywords actually being added than the requested number.

We hope this provides more clarity in regards to the keywords that you will find in your newly created campaign, but for further information don’t hesitate to reach out to our Customer Service team.
