All you need to do is type in your search term and hit enter. But it\u00a0only shows you the number of results.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-79383 size-full\" title=\"Google\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Google.png\" alt=\"Google\" width=\"700\" height=\"519\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>But if you scroll down to the bottom of the page, you will find a short list of keywords that are associated or related to your seed keyword. Now you can start to build a list of new keywords and keyword phrases.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-79384 size-full\" title=\"Google related words\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Google-related-words.png\" alt=\"Google related words\" width=\"700\" height=\"492\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>You can do a similar search on Amazon. However, it works differently to Google.<\/p>\n<p>Start by going to Books, and then type a word in the search bar. As you type, a list of phrases that have been used by Amazon shoppers will appear.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-79388\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Amazon-book.png\" alt=\"Amazon book\" width=\"700\" height=\"354\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>You should do the same again, but this time, selecting the Kindle store.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-79389\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Amazon-Kindle.png\" alt=\"Amazon Kindle\" width=\"700\" height=\"360\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>By using Google and Amazon, you can put together a list of\u00a0keyword suggestions. But there are better tools than\u00a0simple search engine input that you can use.<\/p>\n<h3>6 Free Keyword Tools<\/h3>\n<h3>1. Ubersuggest<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-79393 size-full\" title=\"Ubersuggest\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Ubersuggest.png\" alt=\"Ubersuggest\" width=\"700\" height=\"332\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>Ubersuggest is a fantastic free tool.<\/p>\n<p>It uses data from Google Keyword Planner, and Google Suggest to give you hundreds of keyword suggestions.<\/p>\n<p>For each word, it gives you search volume, cost per click and keyword competition. I used the word, roses, for my seed keyword and here is a scrolling list of only some of the results. It returned 798 in total.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-79392\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/results.gif\" alt=\"results\" width=\"844\" height=\"670\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Then if you hover over the small graphs, there is more information.<\/p>\n<p>The first\u00a0graph gives you the number of average monthly searches.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-79394 size-full\" title=\"monthly searches\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/monthly-searches.png\" alt=\"monthly searches\" width=\"700\" height=\"344\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>The second graph gives you the number of clicks.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-79395 size-full\" title=\"Number of clicks\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Number-of-clicks.png\" alt=\"Number of clicks\" width=\"700\" height=\"323\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>That is a lot of data from a free keyword tool.<\/p>\n<h3>2.\u00a0Google Keyword Suggest Tool<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-79398 size-full\" title=\"seochat\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/seochat-1.png\" alt=\"seochat\" width=\"700\" height=\"330\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>Google Keyword Suggest Tool has one big plus. It allows you to search for Amazon keywords.<\/p>\n<p>This is a big advantage for authors. There is also the option to search Bing and YouTube.<\/p>\n<p>There is a 100-word limit if you want to dig deeper, but that is more than enough for most users.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-79399 size-full\" title=\"seochat results\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/seochat-results.png\" alt=\"seochat results\" width=\"700\" height=\"529\"  \/><\/p>\n<h3>3.

Another expression used for LSI is a long tail keyword.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, it finds words that are related\u00a0to your seed keyword.<\/p>\n<p>There is a daily limit on the number of searches you can do. But it is still a very useful tool as it gives you a long list of\u00a0keyword ideas\u00a0you can scroll through.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-79402\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/lsi-results.png\" alt=\"lsi results\" width=\"700\" height=\"693\"  \/><\/p>\n<h3>4.

A very high score means that it will be very difficult to rank for that keyword.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-79404 size-full\" title=\"kw results\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/kw-results.png\" alt=\"kw results\" width=\"700\" height=\"647\"  \/><\/p>\n<h3>5.

Related topics and Related queries. Both can give you some good ideas for keywords.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-79408\" src=\"https:\/\/justpublishingadvice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/google-trends-results.png\" alt=\"google trends results\" width=\"700\" height=\"242\"  \/><\/p>\n<h3>Summary<\/h3>\n<p>If you are an author and you need to add or improve your seven Amazon book keywords, you could consider adding the free tools I have listed above to your bookmarks.<\/p>\n<p>They will help you find better words and phrases that are vital in helping book buyers find your books using Amazon search.<\/p>\n<p>If you are blogging a few times a month, using these tools will help your articles rank much better.
