What We Deliver

Keyword Research Services for Every Business Need

From seed keywords to a full content roadmap — every project delivers actionable data your team can use to publish, optimize, and rank.

  • Niche Keyword Research

    Deep-dive research into your specific industry vertical. We find the terms your exact audience uses — not generic high-volume keywords that attract the wrong visitors.

  • Semantic Keyword Research

    Related terms, synonyms, entities, and topic variations mapped around your core keywords. Google rewards topical depth — we build the clusters that prove it.

  • Localized Keyword Research

    City, region, and country-specific keyword sets with local volume data. Essential for businesses targeting specific geographic markets or running multi-location SEO.

  • B2B Keyword Research

    Long-tail, high-intent keywords for complex sales cycles. Industry jargon, comparison queries, and decision-stage terms that attract qualified leads, not casual browsers.

  • Keyword Research for Content Marketing

    Topic clusters, question-based keywords, and editorial calendar planning. Every keyword maps to a content piece, a funnel stage, and a business outcome.

  • International Keyword Research

    Multi-language, multi-market research with native-speaker validation. Search behavior differs across countries — we research each market individually, not through translation.

Why Mettevo

What Sets Our Keyword Research Agency Apart

Most agencies hand you a spreadsheet of keywords sorted by volume. We deliver a strategy you can act on — with intent mapping, content briefs, and competitive context.

  • Intent, Not Just Volume

    Every keyword is tagged by search intent. A 50-volume transactional keyword can be worth more than a 5,000-volume informational one. We prioritize accordingly.

  • Competitor Gap Focus

    We reverse-engineer what your competitors rank for and identify keywords they're winning that you're not — then build a plan to close those gaps.

  • Actionable Deliverables

    You get keyword maps, content briefs, and editorial calendars — not a raw export. Your writers and SEO team can execute immediately.

  • Industry Expertise

    Healthcare, legal, SaaS, fintech, B2B manufacturing — we understand the terminology and search behavior in each vertical. No generic keyword lists.

FAQ

Common Questions About Keyword Research

How long does a keyword research project take?

A standard keyword research project takes 1–2 weeks. Larger projects covering multiple verticals, languages, or dozens of competitor domains may take 2–4 weeks. We deliver a complete keyword map with content briefs, not just a list.

What's the difference between niche and semantic keyword research?

Niche keyword research focuses on finding terms specific to your industry vertical. Semantic keyword research expands around those terms with related phrases, synonyms, and entity variations that help Google understand your topical authority. We do both as standard.

Do you handle international and localized research?

Yes. Our international keyword research covers multi-language, multi-market analysis with native-speaker validation. Localized keyword research targets specific cities, regions, or countries with geo-specific volume data.

How much does keyword research cost?

One-time keyword research projects start at $1,500. Ongoing research as part of an SEO retainer is included in plans starting at $2,000/month. Complex multi-market or multi-vertical projects are scoped individually after a discovery call.

What deliverables will I receive?

A prioritized keyword map with volume, difficulty, and intent tags. Semantic clusters grouped by topic. Content briefs for priority pages. Competitor gap analysis. And an editorial calendar showing which pieces to publish first for maximum impact.
