About the LSI Keyword Extractor

Paste content and the extractor pulls out the two, three and four word phrases it leans on, filtered of common words and ranked by how distinctive each one is rather than by raw frequency. Paste a competitor's page and it tells you what that page is actually about.

A note on the name, since it is worth being straight about it. LSI — latent semantic indexing — is a real technique from the 1980s that Google has confirmed it does not use, and "LSI keywords" as sold by the SEO industry are not a real thing. What is real, and what this tool does, is find the phrases that co-occur with a topic in content that covers it well. Comparing the top three ranking pages for a query against your draft shows you what they discuss and you do not, which is a genuinely useful gap analysis whatever the label on it.

Key features of the LSI Keyword Extractor

Two to four word phrases

Ranked separately, because the useful signal is almost always in the phrases rather than single words.

Distinctiveness, not frequency

Phrases are weighted against ordinary English, so common constructions do not top the list.

HTML stripped

Paste a page straight from view-source and the markup is removed before analysis.

Honest naming

It states that Google has confirmed it does not use latent semantic indexing, and explains what this actually measures.

Minimum length enforced

Below a few hundred words the numbers mean nothing, and it says so rather than inventing them.

How to use the LSI Keyword Extractor

  1. 1

    Paste your content

    Your draft, or a competitor page. HTML is stripped automatically.

  2. 2

    Read the ranked phrases

    Two, three and four word phrases, filtered of common words and ranked by distinctiveness.

  3. 3

    Compare against a competitor

    Run their page, run yours, and the difference is your content gap.

  4. 4

    Write in the gaps

    Cover what a good page on this topic covers, in your own words rather than by inserting terms.

Frequently asked questions

Not as the SEO industry sells them. Latent semantic indexing is a genuine 1980s technique, and Google has said publicly that it does not use it. What is real is that pages covering a topic well use a recognisable vocabulary, and finding that vocabulary is useful — whatever it gets called.
