Who is this template for?

This workflow template is built for SEO specialists and digital marketers looking to uncover keyword opportunities effortlessly.

It uses Google's autocomplete magic to help you spot what's trending.

How it works

Just give it a keyword.

The workflow then queries Google and collects all autocomplete suggestions by appending every letter from A to Z to your keyword.

Output example with the keyword "n8n" :

You can sort these keywords and give them to an LLM to produce entity-enriched text.

Setup instructions

It works right out of the box. 🛠️

However, you may want to tweak the output format to better fit your use case.

Exporting the Keywords

You can easily add a node to export the keywords in various ways:

  • via a webhook
  • by email
  • as a file (e.g., saved to Google Drive)
  • directly to a website

Adapting the Language

Autocomplete results depend on the selected language.

You can change the &hl=en parameter in the Google Autocomplete node.

Replace the "en" part with the language code of your choice.

Examples:

  • &hl=fr → French
  • &hl=es → Spanish
  • &hl=de → German
