Keywords
The tool shows keywords for which the analyzed domain or URL is ranked in the top 100 Google/top 50 Bing search results and their positions. You can also see keywords the domain/page was spotted in paid search results. In the upper area of the table, switch between the SEO, PPC, or Missing keywords reports.
Missing keywords are keywords for which competitors' pages are ranked in the top 10, but the page of the analyzed site is not ranked even in the top 100 Google. This report is available for the exact URL analysis only.
For each keyword, Serpstat displays the main keyword metrics and the URL that ranks for a specific keyword.
Keyword difficulty assesses the keyword competition level for promotion to the top 10 (at the moment, the indicator is under development).
The position taken by the keyword. If there is a designation “New” next to it, the domain wasn’t previously ranked within the top 100 Google/top 50 Bing for this keyword. Red and green marks indicate changes in position dynamics.
Volume (average per month over the last year) — how often users typed this keyword into a search.
Traffic — approximate keyword traffic for the analyzed domain or URL.
CPC — cost per click is in USD.
Competition will show how difficult it will be to promote a given keyword in PPC (max. 100%).
Results — the number of results in the search results for this keyword.
URL — the page where this keyword leads.
Ads — the number of ads that show the domain for a given key
Pages — the number of landing pages that ads for this key lead to.
Use case:
1. Keywords expansion and collection
This method is perfect for collecting keywords for a new page. To speed up the process and collect the highest-quality keywords, enter a similar competitor's page and apply a filter to select the keywords that are of the highest quality in your opinion. The same method is suitable if your goal is to expand the keyword list of an existing page.
2. Find out the competitor's budget collecting the keywords
When creating a new website or promoting your own, you may face the question of the budget for launching ads. To estimate costs, you can analyze a competitor's domain and understand what budget it has for advertising, and also see CPC (cost per click, USD) for keywords.
To collect keywords in a context with a specific cost, you can apply the "Cost" filter and specify the required parameters. This way you will not go beyond your budget.
Report set up
Here are some more tips on how you can set up the report for your needs:
1. Columns can be sorted and rearranged by location and by size;
2. To copy or transfer keywords to other tools, select the needed keywords on the page with checkboxes, then click "Operations" in the upper right corner:

Filters for the Domain Analysis module
Filters are applied to keywords, when using “and” you will get keywords that meet the conditions of all filters, and when using "or", you will get keywords that meet the condition of at least one of the filters.
You can separate keywords in all filters using a comma or line break.
Filtering by various parameters and conditions is available in all Domain analysis reports.
The "Keywords" filter will show keywords containing certain words.
Filter conditions:
- "Contains all (exact match)" – keywords containing all added keywords in the exact word form in the filter.
