Keyword Ideas

 ‌
The Keyword Ideas endpoint provides search terms that are relevant to the product or service categories of the specified keywords. The algorithm selects the keywords which fall into the same categories as the seed keywords specified in a POST array.

As a result, you will get a list of relevant keyword ideas for up to 200 seed keywords.

Along with each keyword idea, you will get its search volume rate for the last month, search volume trend for the previous 12 months, as well as current cost-per-click and competition values. Moreover, this endpoint supplies minimum, maximum and average values of daily impressions, clicks and CPC for each result.

Datasource: DataForSEO Keyword Database segmented by product categories.
Search algorithm: relevance-based search for terms that fall into the same category as specified seed keywords.
Examples:
Note: no additional sorting parameters applied, "closely_variants" set to false
Specified seed keywords:
“keyword research”, “content marketing”
Resulting keyword ideas:
•”free adword tools”,
•”find longtail keywords”,
•”how to do keywords research”,
•”seo keyword research template”

default rule:
["relevance,desc"]
relevance is used as the default sorting rule to provide you with the closest keyword ideas. We recommend using this sorting rule to get highly-relevant search terms. Note that relevance is only our internal system identifier, so it can not be used as a filter, and you will not find this field in the result array. The relevance score is based on a similar principle as used in the Keywords For Keywords endpoint.

note that you can set no more than three sorting rules in a single request
you should use a comma to separate several sorting rules

["keyword_info.search_volume,desc","keyword_info.cpc,desc"]
