Let’s get started.

Tool #1: Amazon Keyword Tool

Here is the first tool I have for you.

Amazon Keyword Tool finds relevant keywords using Amazon autocomplete.

All you have to do is type a keyword and press enter:

Amazon Keyword Tool will then generate a list of relevant keywords, as shown below:

Let’s take a look at what each of these metrics mean:

  2. Trend—How that keyword is trending in Amazon search
  3. CPC—The maximum bidding advertisers pay in Google for the keyword
  4. Competition—The number of advertisers bidding on the keyword in Google

As you can see, Keywords Everywhere adds a number next to every result that Amazon auto-suggests.

This number is the monthly search volume for that particular keyword.

Keep in mind that these are just estimations.

This means that the results are not always 100% accurate.

However, they are enough to get you started.

An amazing feature is the Keyword Density Analysis.

How does it work?

While you are on a product page that interests you, click on Analyze Page:

Analyze Page With Keywords Everywhere

What you get is a list of keywords that exist on that page, along with their keyword density and some other useful metrics as shown below:
