Mining Keywords and Search Intent — Perplexity
AI is excellent at expanding a seed topic into keyword clusters and classifying search intent (informational, commercial, transactional, navigational).
The prompt
What questions are people currently asking online about [topic]? List 15 real questions from forums, Reddit, and Q&A sites from the last 6 months, with sources. Group them by subtopic.
What to replace
Swap these placeholders for your own details before running the prompt:
[topic]your own value
Pro tip: Always validate AI keyword ideas against real volume/difficulty data — AI knows language patterns, not your niche's live search volumes.
How to use this prompt
- Copy the prompt using the button above.
- Replace [topic] with your own details — the more specific you are, the better the output.
- Paste it into Perplexity and run it.
- If the answer feels generic, add constraints: audience, length, tone, and what to avoid. That single change fixes most weak output.
