How it works What the Branded Keyword Filter does

Keeps either the keywords that mention your brand terms or the ones that don’t — the first split in almost every keyword and Search Console analysis.

Type your brand names and spellings, separated by commas, and the list is split: keep the non-brand keywords or keep only the brand ones. Branded and non-branded search behave very differently, so separating them is one of the first steps in any keyword or Search Console analysis.

Include common misspellings and product names, for example “nike, nkie, air max”. Matching ignores capitals and uses whole words.

3 steps How to use the Branded Keyword Filter

  1. Paste your list into the box above — one item per line. Keyword exports, crawl exports and spreadsheet columns all work.
  2. Check the settings and adjust them to your job — the result updates as you type.
  3. Copy the result and paste it wherever it needs to go. Nothing is uploaded, so client and confidential data stay on your machine.
