About the Keyword List Generator
Most searches add a modifier to a product or topic: buy running shoes, running shoes near me, best yoga mat, how to choose a yoga mat. This generator combines your seed keywords with groups of modifiers for buying (transactional), comparing (commercial), learning (informational) and local searches, plus any words you add yourself. It builds every combination in a tidy list without duplicates, ready to check in a keyword tool or use for ad groups. It doesn't invent search volumes; it gives you ideas to research.

Search intent in one minute
The same product can be searched with very different goals. Matching your page to the intent matters more than repeating the keyword.
- Informational: how to choose running shoes, a guide or blog post
- Commercial: best running shoes, a comparison or review page
- Transactional: buy running shoes, a product or category page
- Local: running shoes near me, a store page with address and hours
From ideas to a plan
After generating, delete combinations that make no sense, check volumes in a keyword tool, and group what is left by intent. Each group points to a type of page. Our Keyword Cluster Tool can then group the survivors by topic.
Writing good seed keywords
Use the plain words a customer would type, not internal product names. Keep each seed short, two or three words, because modifiers add length. Try singular and plural forms as separate seeds, since searches often differ.
Avoiding thin pages
Don't build a separate page for every combination: buy running shoes and order running shoes belong on the same page. Use the list to make sure one good page covers the different ways people ask for the same thing.
Using your own modifiers
Add words that matter in your market: a year for products that change yearly, a city for local services, materials like leather or waterproof, or audiences like for kids or for beginners. Put adjectives before the keyword and phrases like for kids after it. Combining two of your own modifiers is not supported, which keeps the list readable; run the tool twice if you need that.
Phone and computer
Type a few seeds on your phone for quick ideas, or paste a long list on your computer and download the result. When the list is long, group related words with the Keyword Cluster Tool, and turn the best ones into titles using the Headline Generator. To pull keywords from an article, use the Keyword Extractor, and the Meta Description Generator turns them into a short summary.

Frequently asked questions
What are transactional keywords?
Searches that show someone is ready to buy, such as buy, price, deals, coupon or for sale combined with a product. They are valuable for shops and ads because they convert well.
What is the difference between transactional and commercial keywords?
Commercial searches compare options before buying, like best, reviews or vs. Transactional searches are the buying step itself.
Does this show search volume?
No. It generates ideas only. Paste the list into a keyword research tool or Google Keyword Planner to see which ones people actually search.
Can I use it for Google Ads?
Yes. The combinations make a quick starting list for ad groups. Remove ideas that don't fit before you use them.
How many keywords will I get?
About 10 to 30 per seed for each type of modifier you tick, minus any duplicates.
Can I add my own words?
Yes. Type them separated by commas, such as for kids, waterproof, 2026, and choose whether they go before or after the seed.
