How to Use These Keyword Strings
Basic strings work with any keyword research tool. Advanced strings work with
tools that accept wildcard searches. Replace [keyword] with your seed keyword.
For example, the seed keyword "air conditioner" would change the basic search
string "does [keyword]" to be "does air conditioner". And it would change the
advanced search string "how * [keyword]" to be "how * air conditioner".
