Every ranking page starts with the right keyword. Volume shows demand, difficulty shows whether you can rank, and CPC reveals commercial intent — the terms advertisers pay most for are usually the ones that convert.

Stop guessing — target terms with proven demand instead of hunches.

Win quicker — filter to low-difficulty terms a new site can rank for.

Focus on revenue — prioritise high-CPC keywords that attract buyers.

Keyword tool FAQ

Where does the keyword data come from?
Live Google Search data — the same source the big paid tools use. Volume, CPC, and difficulty are refreshed continuously.
Is it really free?
Yes — no signup and no credit card for a set number of searches each day. Create a free account for unlimited research and to save keyword lists.
What counts as a good difficulty score?
As a rule of thumb: under 30 is easy, 30–60 is moderate, and 60+ needs strong backlinks to rank. Newer sites should start with low-difficulty terms.
How do I actually rank for these keywords?
Great content plus authoritative backlinks. Once you've picked your keywords, PitchLinks helps you find and build the links that get you ranking.
