Keyword research prompt

A copy-and-paste prompt for ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini that gets a professional keyword research on the first try, plus the cheapest model that does it well.

What most people type

what keywords should i target for my dog grooming salon website

It works, but the AI has to guess your city/neighborhood and service area, mobile or in-salon and price range, so the first answer usually needs another round. The version below asks for exactly what a professional would deliver.

The better prompt

Build a keyword strategy for my dog grooming salon website.

Business context: [city/neighborhood and service area], services offered: [services, e.g. full groom, bath only, nail trim, breed-specific cuts], [mobile or in-salon], [price range], [what makes us different].

Give me:
1. A short list of primary keywords for the homepage and main service pages, with the search intent for each (local/transactional, informational).
2. Secondary and long-tail keywords grouped by theme: service type, breed or coat type, local modifiers (city, neighborhood, "near me"), and problem-based searches.
3. Which page each keyword group should target, including any new pages worth creating (service pages, location pages, FAQ or blog topics).
4. Quick local SEO notes: Google Business Profile keywords and how to use the local terms on-page.

Show results in a table (keyword, intent, suggested page). Rate each keyword's expected competition as low, medium or high as a rough estimate only. Don't invent search volumes or other statistics; tell me to check volumes in a tool such as Google Keyword Planner and suggest what to verify there.

Replace the [brackets] with your details before you send it: city/neighborhood and service area, mobile or in-salon, price range, what makes us different.
