I built a crazy powerful keyword research tool

For the last four months, I’ve been working 8-10 hours a day building a keyword research tool. Hence why you haven’t heard from me lately.

Today, I’m finally ready to launch.

Let me introduce you to the most powerful keyword research tool on the planet: ClearSERP.com.

(I’m biased of course, but hear me out!)

ClearSERP is the tool I wish I had back when I ran my done-for-you keyword research agency (Curated Keywords).

Back then, I’d spend days researching just a few hundred keywords as I had to manually check each keyword in the SERPs to make sure it was worth targeting.

With ClearSERP, I can do several day’s work in a matter of minutes - and the quality is higher!

Let me show you how it works:

Imagine I just started a recipe blog and wanted to find keywords I can actually rank for with my brand-new site.

1. I’d go to the Keyword Research mode in ClearSERP, and search “* recipe” and sort by lowest difficulty (I also set max search volume to 2,000):

2. Then, I’d select the results and click Analyze. This will show me complete SERP data for every keyword, including:

   • ALL top 10 results (including organic results and Google SERP features)

   • Authority of each result

   • 16 different SERP weaknesses and whether they’re present

   • The “KeywordScore” which takes into account all the data and gives a score from 1-100, with higher scores meaning easier to rank for

And just like that, I now have a list of keywords in the recipe niche that are easy to rank for - with the evidence to back it up.

To view ALL the details for any of those keywords, I can just click the chevron in the Details column. This will show me the actual SERP landscape, complete with the ranking URLs, their estimated organic traffic, age, backlink count, and technical weaknesses.

In the above screenshot, you’ll see the top ranking site for the keyword “black milk tea recipe” has a Domain Score (authority) of 0. Yet, that article is getting an estimated 5,172 monthly visits!

This is gold. If a site with no authority is ranking and getting that much traffic, I know it’s possible to rank my brand new recipe blog for this keyword as well.

But this is just the tip of the iceberg. Let’s take it a step further!

Why not see what other keywords that 0 authority site ranks for, to find more easy-to-rank for keywords??

To do so, I plug the domain into the Competitor Research mode and hit search.

And now I have a list of 992 easy keywords! 🤯

Now we’ve really struck gold.

But believe it or not, we can take this even further.

Let me introduce you to perhaps the most powerful feature of all:

Domain Research mode.

Enter any domain, and get a massive list of keywords in the same niche. Mind you, not keywords the domain ranks for necessarily, but keywords that are highly relevant to that domain.

Unbelievably powerful.

Note how the keywords in that screenshot are very similar to the keywords the 0-authority site is ranking for.

Like “strawberry matcha milk tea”, which is extremely relevant to keywords like “black milk tea recipe”.

Domain Research mode is perfect for finding new keywords to target based on a URL. You can enter your own site or a competitor’s site and find tons of opportunities you otherwise would’ve missed!

And by the way, you can select any keyword to fully analyze and get all the juicy weakness and SERP data. I analyzed the top 100 from the Domain Research results above, and many of them have low authority sites ranking in the top 10 as well!

Are you seeing how incredibly powerful ClearSERP is for keyword research yet??

That’s just a brief overview of the main features. But you can also analyze up to 1,000 keywords at a time in bulk with the Analysis feature.

Bulk analyzing online tool keywords…

I have a giant list of online tool-related keywords (calculators, generators, etc.) It’s actually for sale at whattoship.com. But anyway, I took 1,000 of those keywords and analyzed them with ClearSERP.

The results show me exactly what keywords are the easiest to rank for. So instead of sifting through 1,000 keywords manually to find one to target, I just bulk analyzed them with ClearSERP and in a matter of minutes had all the details I’d manually find (and then some!)

I probably shouldn’t share this cause I was planning to keep them to myself, but… whatever. There are plenty of others to target (remember this was just 1K out of the 13K+ keywords on the list).

So, here are some of the easiest-to-rank-for online tool keywords:

By the way, if it wasn’t clear before, the numbers in those circles represent the Domain Score (authority) of each site in the top 10. So yeah, all those keywords have multiple sites ranking in the top 10 with Domain Scores of 10 or lower.

There are still more features, like saving keywords to a collection for easy management/organization, and grouping keywords by similarity, but I just wanted to cover the primary features in this email. It’s already getting quite long! I’ll put out a detailed walkthrough video that will cover all features soon. Look for it on clearserp.com soon.

What about pricing?

ClearSERP offers flexible pricing with three options:

• Monthly Plans: Starting at $29/month for 1,000 credits, $99/month for 4,000 credits, $399/month for 20,000 credits

• Yearly Plans: Starting at $290/year for 1,000 credits/month, $990/year for 4,000 credits/month, $3,990/year for 20,000 credits/month

• Credit Packs: Starting at $19 for 500 credits up to $999 for 50,000 credits (credit pack credits never expire, whereas monthly and yearly credits are reset each month)

Credit costs use a "melting surcharge" system: ≤50 keywords cost more per keyword, 51-500 keywords have reducing surcharge; ≥500 keywords are 1 credit each.

If you’re curious, you can learn more about the credit system here.

How these prices compare…

Back when I was running Curated Keywords, I charged $199 for a done-for-you list of 10 keywords, and made lots of sales. I had glowing reviews from the likes of Charles Floate and Jon Dykstra, and many other lesser-known internet marketers who saw massive traffic increases after targeting the keywords I provided them.

With ClearSERP, you can pay as little as a $19 one-time fee and analyze up to 500 keywords. EASILY enough capacity to find dozens of good keywords. And for less than 10% of the price I charged Curated Keywords customers!

If you’re like me and have a list of thousands of keywords you’d like to analyze, then the bigger plans will save you lots of $$$.

For instance, the $19 plan costs as low as 3.8 cents per analyzed keyword, whereas the $999 plan costs as little as 2 cents per analyzed keyword!

And monthly and yearly plans are even cheaper per keyword than the credit packs.

See all pricing details here.

But wait, there’s more.

To celebrate the launch of ClearSERP, you can get 20% off any plan now through Sunday, September 14th with the discount code LAUNCH. It only applies to the first charge.

If you sign up, keep in mind I’m still in beta testing, so be patient if there’s an error. I’ve tested everything multiple times now and everything works on my end, but more bugs are likely to occur.

So, please reach out ASAP if you run into any issues and I’ll get it sorted out as quickly as I can.

Also, if you sign up and want to hop on a video call to ask questions, just let me know! I’d be happy to walk you through the platform and show you how to use it to its full capacity.

Well, that does it for this email.

Go check out ClearSERP and if you sign up, don’t forget to use the discount code LAUNCH

Thanks for reading!
