As of 13 August 2026, AI can find local keywords for your UK business.

What to actually do

1. Hand it to a person

   The route this page recommends

   A person who owns the outcome does this end to end, worth it when the failure is dear.

2. Use a tool built for this

   Second choice

3. Do it yourself

   The distant third

   A chat interface, chat-fluent skill, and roughly 30 minutes until you can act on the result.

   How to actually do it

   1. Open a blank document and write down your business name, main services, primary town or city, full service area, ideal customers and any services you do not provide.
   2. Copy the titles and URLs of your current website pages, then add the names or URLs of up to three local competitors if you know them.
   3. Paste those details into the prompt and ask the chatbot to produce the keyword table without inventing search volumes or competitor facts.
   4. Open Google and search the most important suggested phrases with the location included, then record the local businesses, map results and related searches that appear.
   5. Check each keyword against your actual service area and offer, remove terms with the wrong intent, and merge terms that show substantially the same results.
   6. Use the remaining phrases to assign one primary keyword group to each relevant page, then add new pages only where the search results and your business offer justify them.

   Prompt

   Act as an SEO researcher for a UK business. Find and organise local keyword opportunities for this business:
   
   Business name: [business name]
   Business type: [business type]
   Main services or products: [list]
   Primary town, city or area: [location]
   Areas served: [locations]
   Ideal customers: [customer types]
   Important specialisms, qualifications or differentiators: [details]
   Existing pages: [page titles and URLs, if available]
   Competitors: [names or URLs, if available]
   Terms or services to exclude: [list]
   
   Return a table with these columns: keyword, search intent, likely customer, location modifier, suggested target page, priority, and reason. Include terms using the actual towns, cities and areas served, plus sensible service and problem-based variations. Separate service, commercial, informational and navigational intent. Group near-duplicates and do not recommend a separate page where the search intent is substantially the same.
   
   Do not invent search volumes, rankings, trends, competitor facts or customer behaviour. If you cannot verify demand data, label it as an assumption and say what I should check in a keyword research tool or in Google search. Flag terms that could attract people outside my service area or customers looking for a different service. Use UK spelling and terminology. Finish with a short list of the best page opportunities and the exact evidence I should check before publishing.

   Open it prefilled in ChatGPT or Claude, or copy it into Gemini, which takes no prefill link.
