> Free tool that collects keyword ideas by asking your contacts

Checked Oct 23, 2026 · graded Oct 23, 2026 by ToolGPA.

Seed Keywords is a free tool for the start of keyword research. You write a search scenario, such as needing a faulty PC fixed, and share its unique link; the people who open it type what they would search for, and their answers build a list of seed keywords. It supplies no search data of its own and was made by Red Evolution, a UK marketing agency.

## Key features

- **Search scenarios:** Pose a problem in your own words and ask what people would type into a search engine to solve it; the tutorial advises keeping the wording neutral.
- **Shareable answer link:** Each scenario gets a unique URL to send by email, forums or social media. Anyone who opens it can answer, as many times as they like.
- **Results list and CSV download:** The scenario's results page lists every suggested phrase, lets you delete entries and downloads the list as a CSV file.
- **Check phrases on Google:** Each phrase links to a plain, exact-match or intitle search on a Google country domain you pick, to see what already ranks for it.

## Good for

- Starting keyword research in a niche where tools show little search data
- Hearing how customers or friends would phrase a search
- Building a seed list to check later in a keyword tool

## Worth knowing

- Gives no search volumes, difficulty or other metrics; the maker suggests checking the list in a main keyword tool.
- The list stays empty until people answer, so it depends on sharing the link with enough contacts.
- There are no accounts: a scenario is reached only through its unique URL, which the tutorial says to bookmark.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.6 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. Seed Keywords is a free web tool for the start of keyword research: you write a scenario, share the link, and the people who open it type what they'd search for. It gives no volumes, difficulty or any other data, and the list stays empty until people answer. There are no accounts, so you bookmark the link or lose it. Past the first brainstorm, you'll need a real keyword tool.

- **Value for money: A.** Free, with no account and nothing to buy. You make a scenario, share it and download the answers as CSV.
- **Free plan and trial: A.** Everything is free and there are no limits on record: anyone with the link can answer, as many times as they like.
- **Features: D.** One narrow job: collecting phrases from people you send the link to, then linking each to a Google search. No volumes, difficulty or other data, and the maker itself suggests checking the list in a main keyword tool.
- **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. Making a scenario takes a minute, but you're only productive once enough contacts answer, and with no accounts you have to bookmark the link to get back.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, with no integrations or API. The results leave as a CSV file.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** Seed Keywords is free, so making your own would save you nothing. And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 38 of the 51 other keyword research tools we grade.

- You could make: Surveys: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
