AnswerThePublic provides information for keyword research a little differently.

This tool pulls data from Google to show you the questions being asked about your keywords, as well as related queries.

The results are a valuable resource for additional blog post topics and other items to cover in your posts on the topic.

AnswerThePublic for Keyword Research

answer the public

When you first arrive at the Answer the Public keyword tool, you used to find an agitated older man waiting for your search. If you took too long, he'd even say, “Oh, come on!”

The welcome page changes occasionally, but it is typically someone waiting impatiently for you to enter your search query.

However, once you enter your keyword and hit “Get Questions,” the magic of this keyword tool begins.

Pros And Cons

This detailed review of Answer the Public will be incomplete if we don’t talk about its pros and cons. So without further ado, let’s talk about its benefits and limitations.

Pros

  • Excellent tool for keyword research and brainstorming new topic ideas
  • It provides you visualization form of data which is unique and easy to use
  • You can export your keyword data easily using CSV format
  • It offers a free plan (no credit card required). Although it has daily search limits but it’s not bad either for beginners!

Cons

  • No keyword search volume data (you’ll have to use other tools like SEMrush, Ahrefs etc for the monthly searches)
  • There’s no other keyword metrics available (such as competition, CPC, keyword difficulty etc). It can be only used for content ideas so it’s expensive pricing of $99 per month is NOT justified.
