Keywords Everywhere review

Keywords Everywhere is a browser extension, not a dashboard — and that’s the point. It overlays volume, CPC, and competition on the searches you already do in Google, YouTube, Amazon, and more, plus “people also search for” and long-tail lists. The pay-as-you-go credit model means you only pay for the lookups you make.

What Keywords Everywhere is — and who it's for

Keywords Everywhere isn't a research dashboard you log into; it's a browser extension for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge that injects keyword data straight into pages you already visit. Run a normal Google search and a box appears in the sidebar showing related terms and "people also search for" phrases, each with a monthly search volume beside it. Look up a product on Amazon or a video on YouTube and the same overlay follows you there. Instead of copying a phrase out of the SERP into a separate tool, the numbers come to you, in context, the moment you need them.

That makes it a natural fit for content creators, bloggers, YouTubers, and affiliate marketers who do keyword work in short, frequent bursts rather than long planning sessions — and a sensible second tool for anyone who already pays for a full suite but wants quick volume checks without switching tabs.

Keyword and search-term research capabilities

The core feature is on-SERP metrics. For a given query, Keywords Everywhere overlays three numbers: estimated monthly search volume, average cost per click, and a Google Ads competition score. CPC and competition are paid-search signals, so treat them as a rough proxy for commercial value, not a ranking-difficulty rating — to judge how hard a term is to rank for organically, you'll still want a dedicated metric like keyword difficulty from a research suite.

Where the extension earns its place is idea generation. Alongside any search it surfaces several lists at once:

• Related keywords — semantically connected terms pulled from Google's own data, each with volume attached.
• People Also Search For — the adjacent queries Google associates with your term, useful for mapping a topic outward.
• Long-tail suggestions — extended variations that are typically lower in volume but easier to win.
• Trend and historical volume — month-by-month context so you can spot seasonal terms before committing a page to them.

It reaches beyond Google, too. On YouTube it shows volume for the searches you run there, and on Amazon it surfaces the terms shoppers use — handy for the two places where keyword intent looks very different from a standard web search. You can export any list to CSV, and a bulk-upload feature lets you paste a column of terms and pull metrics for all of them at once. For a single seed term, the related and "also search for" lists are a fast way to go from one phrase to a content angle; clustering and prioritizing those terms is something we cover in our guide to how to do keyword research.

Pricing and plans

Pricing is the most distinctive thing about Keywords Everywhere, and the reason many people choose it. Rather than a fixed subscription for unlimited use, it runs on pay-as-you-go credits: one credit is consumed each time the tool fetches data for a keyword. Plans start from around $5 per month for an entry block of credits, and you buy larger bundles as needed. Credits roll forward rather than expiring monthly, so light users aren't penalized for a quiet stretch.

The practical upshot is that your cost tracks your usage, which suits some users far better than others:

Credit model fits	A flat subscription fits better
Light, occasional lookups	Daily, high-volume research
Spiky or seasonal usage	Steady, predictable workloads
A cheap second opinion alongside another tool	A single primary research platform

Because exact credit allotments and bundle prices change over time, confirm the current numbers on the vendor's pricing page before you commit — but the model itself, low entry cost scaling with use, is stable and is the heart of the value proposition.

Where it shines, and where it falls short

Keywords Everywhere shines at speed and context. There's almost no friction: you keep doing your normal searches and the data is simply there, which makes it brilliant for spontaneous research, competitor SERP-watching, and quick "is this term worth a page?" gut checks. A casual user can get real keyword data for a couple of dollars a month — far less than any full suite's entry tier — and it layers volume onto YouTube and Amazon, where many subscription tools are weaker.

The trade-offs are equally clear. This is an overlay, not a workspace — no rank tracking, no site audit, no backlink data. Its competition figure comes from Google Ads and shouldn't be mistaken for organic ranking difficulty, so it won't tell you on its own whether a term is realistically winnable. Heavy users can burn through credits fast, and the lack of a free standalone tier means you're paying from the first serious session. Anyone who needs a single platform to run an entire SEO program should skip it as a primary tool and look at the all-in-one suites in our best keyword research tools roundup — then add Keywords Everywhere on top if the in-browser convenience appeals.

Verdict

Keywords Everywhere does one job and does it well: it puts real search-term data exactly where you're already looking, for a price that scales down to almost nothing for light use. It won't replace a research suite — it has no ambition to — but as a fast, cheap, in-context source of volume and related-term ideas across Google, YouTube, and Amazon, few tools are as convenient. As a low-commitment way to make keyword data part of everyday browsing, or a budget-friendly second opinion alongside a bigger platform, it's an easy recommendation. Just go in understanding what it is: a sharp, focused overlay, not a command center.
