Search Volume

The estimated number of times a keyword is searched in a specific market and timeframe.

Search volume estimates come from clickstream data, Keyword Planner aggregations and tool-specific modelling. Volumes are estimates with significant variance between tools. Use volume directionally rather than absolutely, and prioritise relevance and intent over raw volume - high-volume terms often have low conversion potential or unwinnable competition.
