Free keyword ideas
Find out what people actually type when they are looking for you
Enter a word or two. I ask Google what people really type around it and group the answers by what they want: to compare prices, to find someone local, or an answer.
Free, no account needed. Works best with two or three words.
Want this fixed for you?
Foundation SEO is free with every site I build. Advanced SEO, the hand written schema and structural work, is from £300 one off, on a site I build or one you already have, Wix included. On a monthly plan, from £100 a month with a 12-month minimum, I build the site and keep all of it up for you. Send me what you found and I will tell you which of it matters most.
What you get
All of it free, on this page
- Every suggestion Google gives around your phrase, usually well over a hundred
- Grouped into near me, cost and comparison, questions, places and other searches (places is a best guess from the wording)
- In Google's own order, which is the one honest signal of how common each is
No account and no email address needed. I keep a record of which pages are checked so I can see the tools are working; the privacy policy has the detail.

Questions
Keyword research without a subscription, and where the limits are
Answers last reviewed 23 September 2026.
Why is there no search volume?
Because there is no free, honest source of it for phrases this specific. Google's volumes sit behind an advertising account, and without live ad spend its Keyword Planner returns bands like '1K to 10K' rather than a figure. Anyone showing you an exact free number is either paying for it or guessing.
What Autocomplete does give you is Google's own order. It suggests the searches people type most first, so a phrase near the top of its group is more common than one near the bottom. That is enough to decide which page to write first.
What is search intent, and why group by it?
Search intent is what somebody wants when they type something. Someone searching 'wedding photographer prices' is close to booking; someone searching 'how to pose for wedding photos' is not.
Grouping by intent tells you what kind of page each query needs. Commercial and local queries want a service page or a location page. Informational ones want a blog post, and putting a booking form at the top of one usually loses both.
The grouping here is done on the words each search adds to yours, and it is deliberately simple. It is right often enough to plan from, and you can check every line of it.
Should I make a page for every keyword?
No. Make one page per intent, not one per phrase. Five queries asking the same thing in different words want one good page, not five thin ones competing with each other.
Google has been good at understanding synonyms for years. A page that answers the question well will rank for the variations without you writing them out separately.
Where do these suggestions come from?
Google's autocomplete data, which is what fills the dropdown when you start typing in the search box. It is drawn from what people actually search.
I ask it more than thirty ways around your phrase: the phrase followed by each letter of the alphabet, and question words such as how, what and why in front of it. Then the duplicates are removed. That surfaces the longer searches a single lookup would miss.
The request is made from my server, not your browser, so your IP address is never sent to Google by this page.
The other free tools
Everything else, also free
Schema Generator
Schema is hidden code that tells Google your business name, phone number and opening hours. Paste a page address and I check what it has against Google's rules, then write the code for anything missing.

Title & Meta Checker
Titles are cut off by width, not by character count, which is why the 60-character rule fails on anything with capitals in it. This measures the real thing.
Open the tool
Competitor Comparison
Give me your page and up to three competitors. I read all four and list what they have that you do not, and the reverse, and every difference can be checked in the pages' own code.
Open the tool
SEO and AEO Audit
The big one. Scores a page across technical setup, on-page SEO, content, schema and answer engines, then tells you what to fix first.
