One Excel sheet, ready to act on. Every column below comes filled in.

Group keywords into topic clusters

Keywords grouped into themes, not dumped in one flat list. Each cluster maps to a pillar page and its supporting articles, ready to brief.
Pull search volume per keyword and cluster

US and global monthly volume for every keyword and cluster, so you can size the opportunity and sort by traffic potential before you commit.
Score keyword difficulty from easy to hard

Score keyword difficulty from easy to hard

Scored and labeled easy, medium, or hard, so you can spot the winnable terms instead of burning months on keywords you cannot rank for.
Tag search intent for every term

Tag search intent for every term

Commercial, informational, navigational, or transactional, tagged per term, so you know which keywords need a blog post and which need a tool page.
Prioritize what to write first

High, medium, or low, so you know what to write first. The score weighs volume against difficulty, putting quick wins at the top.
Map each keyword to a content type

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about the Manus keyword research skill.

How does Manus do keyword research?

You give Manus a seed keyword. It pulls related keywords, groups them into topic clusters, scores difficulty, tags search intent, and sets priority. You get a finished report instead of a raw list to sort yourself.

What does the report include?

Topic clusters, US and global monthly search volume, keyword difficulty, search intent, priority calls, and recommended content type for each keyword. It exports to a spreadsheet you can hand to a writer.

Is this a replacement for Ahrefs or Semrush?

No. Those tools give you a keyword database to dig through. Manus does the digging and returns the finished analysis, so you skip the manual clustering, filtering, and tagging.

Who is the keyword research skill for?

SEO and content marketers who want a keyword research report without spending an afternoon building it by hand.

How many keywords does it return?

It scales to the seed term. A broad keyword can return a few hundred keywords across several clusters. A narrow one returns a tighter, more focused set.

Where does the keyword data come from?

Manus pulls search volume and difficulty from keyword data sources, then does the clustering, intent tagging, and prioritization on top so you get analysis, not just numbers.

Can I run keyword research for any niche or language?

Yes. Give it a seed keyword in any niche and it builds the report around that term. It handles non-English keywords and international markets too.
