Keyword discovery

Start with a topic or seed keyword and review related searches. Select ideas that fit your offer, request the metrics you need and import the keywords you want to work on. You see the scope and price before starting a paid run.

Explore

Find keyword ideas: every way people search for one topic.

Crawl Foundry expands each seed through observed search suggestions, including alphabet variants, questions, comparisons, local searches, and related patterns. You can review the different formulations together before deciding which ones belong in the working set.

Explore one topic with the free question finder, then use Keyword Management to organize the searches worth keeping.

Evaluate

Add search volume and difficulty when they change the decision.

The discovered ideas remain usable without paid enrichment. For selected candidates, request intent, demand, difficulty, SERP, or competitor context when that evidence could change the decision; Crawl Foundry shows the request scope and estimated cost before it runs.

Keep

Move useful ideas into your keyword database.

Move promising ideas directly into lists, tags, and planning views with the available evidence attached. The handoff preserves the keyword and its context, so the team can filter, export, or investigate it later without rebuilding the discovery run.

Keyword discovery: turn an idea into a useful working set

Keyword discovery is the process of finding related searches. A suggestion is a candidate, not a reason to create a page. Use the trail-running example above to distinguish buying questions, comparisons and practical advice before you choose what to keep.

  1. Start with the offer

    Choose a seed topic that describes what you provide. A broad term such as trail running shoes can reveal more specific questions and comparisons.

  2. Review intent and available evidence

    Check what the results offer for a candidate: shops, comparisons or instructions. Request the volume, difficulty and SERP evidence needed for the decision, with the scope and price shown before a paid run.

  3. Import the terms you choose

    Select the candidates that fit your offer and import them into a working list. Unselected suggestions remain candidates rather than silently becoming database entries.

Are keyword ideas the same as monthly search volume?

No. A suggestion is a phrase observed during discovery. Search volume is a separate estimate for a market and period. Missing volume is not proof that nobody searches for the phrase.

Can I use the ideas before requesting more metrics?

You can review candidates and select what to keep without enriching every idea. Fresh external data is requested separately when it helps you decide.
