Tag: google keyword planner

Google Keyword Planner is Google’s free keyword research tool, and you do not need to spend a cent on ads to use it. Most guides on this topic stop at screenshots of the interface. This one adds what those guides leave out: a real keyword research example with actual numbers, and the specific mistakes that make people abandon the tool halfway through setup.

You will get the exact 9-step setup process, a worked example researching keywords for a WordPress plugin page, the errors that cost you accurate data, and four paid alternatives worth comparing.
