AI can turn product details and customer language into a useful list of keyword ideas. The best results come when you give it accurate context, ask for specific types of searches, and review every suggestion before using it on a product or category page.
Start with a clear description of what you sell and who it is for. Include confirmed product details such as category, materials, features, colors, and intended use. Add common customer questions or phrases you have heard, but leave out attributes that do not apply to your products.
For example, ask the tool to suggest search phrases for a specific product category, then request separate lists for general searches, feature-focused searches, and questions shoppers might ask before buying. This gives you ideas with different levels of detail instead of one long, unfocused list.
Give the AI a defined task and ask it to organize the results. Try a prompt like: “Generate 20 search phrases for [product category]. Group them by product type, confirmed features, intended use, and shopper questions. Do not include claims or attributes that are not in the description.”
You can also ask it to identify wording variations, longer specific phrases, and terms that signal someone is comparing products. Ask for plain-language explanations of the likely intent behind each group. Treat the output as a starting point, not a ready-made keyword plan.
Remove irrelevant, repetitive, or inaccurate phrases first. Then compare the remaining ideas with what shoppers actually search for using search suggestions, keyword tools, and your own customer questions. AI can suggest phrases, but a separate keyword tool is needed to assess metrics such as search volume.
Choose terms that match both the product and the page. A broad category phrase may suit a category page, while a specific feature or product type may fit a product page. Use a phrase naturally in the page title, headings, and description; do not cram several near-identical terms into the copy.
Group closely related phrases by the same shopper need, then assign each group to the most relevant existing page. Create a new page only when it serves a distinct purpose and accurately represents what we offer.

Put phrases together when they describe the same product need or shopping question. Assign each group to the page that best answers it, rather than creating separate pages for minor wording differences.
