So, let’s talk about the features of Ubersuggest.

Key Features

Keyword Ideas

If you’re a blogger or a marketer you already know about the importance of keywords. Good keywords can help you to rank your website on top of the search engines.

And it also increases the sells of your product.

With the help of Ubersuggest, you can find different types of keywords.

It will give you a list of keywords based on their search volume, CPC, and SEO difficulty.

Like, if you’re searching for a keyword “earn money online”. It will show you all the suggested keywords.

These suggested keywords are very much close to your seed keyword that you’ve entered in Ubersuggest home search button.

But, Ubersuggest also shows you the keywords that are related to your seed keyword.

Related Keywords

Related keywords are not the same as the seed keywords. But you can get an idea of some different keywords that also rank on search engines.

For example, I have a search for “earn money online“ but it also shows “way to earn money online” that is related to my seed keyword.

So if you want to get some more information about the keywords that are related to your seed keyword you can check for the related keywords.

Questions

There is a separate column for questions that are related to your keyword and usually, people search this type of question in search engine.

You can directly use this question as your keyword or as your blog post title.

Because these are the question that people use to search on Google and other search engines.

So the chances of getting traffic to your site are increases.

For example, my seed keyword is “earn money online” but I get a great long-tail keyword from this question section and that was “where to earn money online without investment”.

These keywords were less competitive and makes good traffic to my website.

Prepositions

Preposition keywords are terms that contain two related concepts in one keyword.

For example, Preposition keyword for “earn money online” is “apps to earn money online” or “how to earn money online with Quora”.

Comparisons

These are the keyword that compares two different things. This feature generates a list of “vs” and “or” terns.

Comparison keywords are usually very important keywords. In this type of keywords, you write content that compares two different products or tools.

Be sure that you provide the right information about the compared product and tools.

Filters

You can use the filter to get the keywords based on your need.

Like, you can put how much search volume you want from that keyword or if you want to use it as paid ad then how much the CPC will be.

The best option in this filter section is SEO difficulty, you can search for a keyword that has low SEO difficulty to rank easily on search engines.

Because the high SEO difficulty takes too much time to rank on Google and other search engines, since there are already many high authority sites are ranking on those keywords.

If you want to include some of your seed keywords to show in the search list, simply write those keywords in the box placed at the right side of the filter section.

You can also exclude the keywords that you don’t want to use or you’ve already used in some of your blog posts.

TIP: When you click on any of the keywords, the tool will show you the websites(at right side) that are ranking on that keyword. Visit those websites and observe how they’ve written their blog posts.

By doing so you’ll get an idea of writing blog posts that rank on search engines.

Terms that you should know while doing keyword research

• Volume: The number of searches that particular keyword has during a month.
• Cost Per Click(CPC): Average cost per click if you wanted to pay Google to be seen as an Ad. If someone is paying a high CPC, the keyword is usually more valuable.
• SEO Difficulty(SD): Estimated competition in organic search, the higher the number the more competitive.
• Paid Difficulty(PD): Estimated competition in paid search, the higher the number the more competitive.

Content Ideas

Before you start writing your blog posts, you need some ideas about the content. What to write in the post and what should not.

If you don’t have any ideas related to your content then you’ll not be able to write a long and informative blog post.

So, you don’t have to go anywhere else to get ideas about the content. Ubersuggest will do it for you.

Just go to the content ideas section, enter your keyword, and this tool will show you a list of content that is similar to your keyword.

Ubersuggest will show you the top pages that rank on search engines.

You will also get to know how many estimated traffic that web pages get from Google for that particular term.

And how many backlinks that particular website has.

• Estimated Visits: The estimated traffic the web page gets from Google.
• Backlinks: How many incoming hyperlinks from other websites to this domain.

There is a list of websites that you can visit and get content ideas.

Many top bloggers and marketers use this trick to outrank their competitors. They simply analyze the competitor’s website and content.

You can also do the same thing!

By analysing the websites, you get more content for your website. I am not saying to copy the content of another website.

But you get more ideas that you can use in your blog posts.

Since these are the websites that already rank on Google means they have the best content among all the websites that use the same keyword.

So, if you try to write content that is more lengthy and informative than this website posts.

The chances of ranking your website higher on Google and other search engines will increase.
