Are you looking for a keyword research tool and don't know which one fits your needs? In this guide we will introduce you to the keyword research tool from Mangools - KWFinder.

Why do you need a keyword research tool?

If you want to start with the content search engine optimization (SEO), you need keywords on which you focus with your website. Only in this way can you find out which search terms (keywords) are relevant to your website and industry and for which you want to rank. You can find a comprehensive explanation of keyword research in another blog article here.

What is a keyword?

The term Keyword (translated search term) is used in the field of online marketing and is the cornerstone for successful, content-based search engine optimization (SEO) and search engine advertising (SEA). A keyword is the search term that users enter within a search engine, such as Google, to find corresponding results. A keyword does not necessarily have to consist of one word, but can also include an entire phrase. A distinction is made between short-tail keywords (e.g. buy pants) and long-tail keywords, i.e. long keyword phrases (e.g. buy gray pants with stripes size 38).

The question you need to ask yourself is, "What keywords do I want my website to be found under?" and "How useful is it to be found under these keywords?". To answer these questions, keyword research tools, such as KWFinder from Mangools, can help you.

KWFinder - The multiple functions of the keyword finder

There are two different approaches to getting the most out of this tool: A keyword research and a keyword analysis. First of all, you can think about suitable keywords and research the relevance or you can start an analysis of an already existing website and see under which search terms the website is already found.

Keyword research based on a keyword 

In-depth keyword research is essential for any SEO strategy and is part of the 1×1 of search engine advertising (SEA).
The KWFinder from Mangools is more versatile than the first glance suggests, because with the help of this tool you can pull more from three different sources with a chosen keyword:

  1. Related keywords 
  2. Autocomplete
  3. Questions

The Related keywords are based on the KWFinder database from Mangools itself, while the Autocomplete and Question view data come from the Google Suggest algorithm and are to be seen as an extension - they show possibilities.

The result is automatically displayed with the related keywords view and shows all keywords that are associated with the selected search term.
However, you must not disregard the two other functions. "Autocomplete" means that keywords are displayed that extend or automatically complete the word you entered yourself. This feature can be compared to Google - you start typing a search term into the search bar and Google makes automatic suggestions to suggest what you might mean. The Question view shows what questions are asked with the search term.

Keyword - Analysis on the basis of a domain

This function has different advantages. On the one hand, you can find out your own position in the Google ranking and on the other hand that of the competition. It is important that you can also see with which keywords you are found, which can result in a new SEO strategy. You can focus more on a certain keyword to achieve a better positioning or move away from keywords that do not fit.
To do this, we switch to the Search by Domain view, enter the desired domain in the Search bar and select the correct country.

kwfinder selection country comma99

The result is divided into two categories and shown in two different views, between which you can switch:

    • Organic keywords
    • Paid Keywords

Organic keywords are the search terms that the user enters into the Google search bar. In the Paid Keywords view, you will find those terms that have to be paid for, i.e. those that are used for Google Ads campaigns.

Depending on your entry, KWFinder will also provide you with suggestions for other similar domains, giving you the opportunity to find other possible competitors.

First steps 

At https://app.kwfinder.com/ a window opens with the different tools Mangools offers, on the first position you will find the KWFinder - you are already on the start page. In the top right corner you will find the "Sign in" button and with your access data you will enter the full menu of KWFinder. Here you can decide which type of search you want to start, "Search by Keyword" or "Search by Domain". (More about this in the next section.)

If you want to know how often a word is searched for, so that you can pay attention to it in further SEO steps, it is important to enter the right parameters. It depends on your product or service itself - if it is local, then you may only be interested in the search volume in your particular area (and in the case of keyword search, also the language).

Info icon comma99 Google and KWFinder do not care about the upper and lower case of the keywords.

On the left side you will see a lot of keywords with a small overview of data and on the right side you will see the concrete data for the marked keyword (marked in blue).

 

Detailed information about keywords 

Depending on whether you have chosen keyword research or keyword analysis, metrics with different information are also revealed for the keywords.

SERP Overview - Meaning and Metrics

SERP analysis is an essential cornerstone for keyword research.

Once you have decided on a specific keyword, you can look at the right side of the interface using the SERP Overview capture an overview of the competition. Here, too, there are key figures that support you in assessing the situation with regard to the competitors.

SERP metrics at a glance and the meaning

Use the filter

Using the filters correctly can save you a lot of time, so it is important not to disregard them. The simplest method is to click on the arrows of the desired metrics and create a new order. Thus, you can increase from the smallest value to the highest value, or vice versa.

If you want to make more specific search queries, KWFinder offers the possibility to narrow down the metrics or to set additional filters. This gives you, for example, the option to find keywords with a low search volume and try to score with these keywords.
But it can also work in the other direction, if you don't have a clear idea of the keywords you want to use. Then you can also vary the values of the filter to generate new suggestions with different search volumes through KWFinder.
If you want to associate a keyword with a specific word, then you can enter this when expanding the filter to get the desired result. But in the same way, you can also exclude certain words - so with the KWTool Mangools a lot is possible.
