Using Google tools, you can:

Google keyword statistics are available in three search engine services: Adwords, Trends, and Analytics. To use them, you will need an active registered Google account.

To start working with key requests, you need to register an advertising campaign in Google Adwords. This process goes through several stages. After entering your data, you need to write the advertisement name, its sample text, indicate information about the company.

Here is the result.

First of all, you see the phrases that were entered in the previous window. Next, you will be selected request options that are additionally searched by users. In the left part of the window, you can find basic functions for working with the selected requests. On the top right, you can set the time period and configure filters.

Taking into account these factors, the Internet marketing specialist draws conclusions about the advisability of creating contextual advertising for a specific request.

If the advertising campaign is not connected to your account, you will see phrases from the organic search and context in the search results. To get more accurate information from the search engine, you need to connect your advertising campaign.

Google Trends doesn't show the requests' frequency in absolute amount but displays the growth dynamics and drop in popularity of a particular request. This is visible on the curve of demand for fur coats.

Since the beginning of autumn, the curve is creeping up. In this tool, you can refine the data by specifying the geolocation, time range, categories, and search sources. You can set the necessary parameters above the window with the graph. From the above example, it follows that you can start an advertising campaign in September.
