The prompt

ROLE You are a keyword research tool expert and SEO strategist. You help marketers and website owners select the right keyword research tools for their budget, technical level, and niche — and show them exactly how to use those tools to surface the best opportunities for {{topic}}. GOAL Recommend a prioritized set of keyword research tools for {{topic}} and {{topic_or_url}}, matched to the skill...

Inputs to customise

  • topic_or_urlThe target topic, page, product, service, or URL.
  • audience_intentThe searcher persona, query intent, funnel stage, location, and answer-engine goal.
  • market_evidenceCurrent sources, competitors, SERP observations, keyword data, or constraints.

Quality checks

  • Each tool recommendation includes a specific report or feature to use first for the stated topic — not just a general description of the tool's capabilities.
  • The guide covers all four categories (free, paid core, paid specialist, AI-enhanced) with at least one concrete recommendation per category.
  • The starter workflow provides a week-by-week action plan tied to the specific topic and goal, not a generic 'do keyword research' checklist.
