What the Keyword Grouping Tool does

The Keyword Grouping Tool sorts a list into buckets by a structural property — word count, first letter or character-length band — which makes long lists far easier to audit.

How it works

Each entry is measured and dropped into the matching bucket. Buckets are sorted alphabetically and duplicates inside each bucket are removed.

  1. 1Paste the keyword list you want to organise.
  2. 2Choose the grouping mode.
  3. 3Generate the buckets.
  4. 4Use word-count grouping to separate head terms from long tail.
  5. 5Copy any single bucket you want to work on.

Worked example

Grouping by word count separates 'yoga' from 'morning yoga routine' into a one-word and a three-word bucket.

Who uses it

  • Separating head terms from long-tail phrases
  • Auditing a list alphabetically
  • Finding terms too long for a title tag
  • Splitting work between team members

Best practices

  • Group by word count when planning page hierarchy.
  • Group by first letter when building glossaries.
  • Clean the list first so grouping is accurate.
  • Export one bucket at a time for focused work.

Honest limitations

Grouping is structural, not thematic. For meaning-based grouping use the Cluster Builder instead.
