š» Letās Build It ā Step-by-Step
š§ 1. Install the Essentials
sh
CopyEdit
pip install requests beautifulsoup4 pandas
š§ 2. The Python Magic Begins
python
CopyEdit
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import pandas as pd
def get_google_suggestions(keyword):
url = f”http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?client=firefox&q={keyword}”
response = requests.get(url)
suggestions = response.json()[1]
return suggestions
def get_keyword_data(keyword):
api_url = f”https://api.neilpatel.com/ubersuggest/keyword-data?keyword={keyword}&country=us”
headers = {“User-Agent”: “Mozilla/5.0”}
try:
response = requests.get(api_url, headers=headers)
data = response.json()
if ‘search_volume’ in data:
return {
“Keyword”: keyword,
“Search Volume”: data[“search_volume”],
“CPC ($)”: data[“cpc”],
“Competition”: data[“competition”]
}
except:
return Nonedef keyword_research(seed_keyword):
print(f”š Searching for: {seed_keyword}…”)
suggestions = get_google_suggestions(seed_keyword)
keyword_data_list = []
for keyword in suggestions:
data = get_keyword_data(keyword)
if data:
keyword_data_list.append(data)
df = pd.DataFrame(keyword_data_list)
df.to_csv(“keyword_research.csv”, index=False)
print(“ā Done! Results saved to ‘keyword_research.csv'”)
return df
# š„ Example Run
seed_keyword = “best SEO expert in Bangladesh”
df_results = keyword_research(seed_keyword)
print(df_results)
𧬠How It Works
Hereās the simple genius behind it:
- You enter a seed keyword like “best SEO expert in Bangladesh”.
- The tool fetches autocomplete suggestions directly from Google.
- It queries the Ubersuggest API for:
- š Monthly Search Volume
- šµ Cost Per Click (CPC)
- āļø Keyword Competition
- Finally, it exports everything to a CSV, ready for analysis, planning, or client reporting.

š ļø Letās Start Building
Would you like me to:
- Generate the full Flask project with frontend UI (ready-to-run)?
- Focus on just the frontend design first (with search input, table & chart)?
- Or build the backend + keyword processing logic first?
š§ Phase 1: Basic Flask Web App Setup
- Homepage with a keyword input form.
- Backend processes the keyword.
- Fetches suggestions + data.
- Displays results in a styled HTML table.
- CSV export button.
šØ Phase 2: Polished UI with Tailwind + Charts
- Tailwind CSS for a modern design.
- Keyword metrics visualized using Chart.js (bar or line charts).
- Add a loading animation during API calls.
- Optional: dropdown to select target country.
š§ Phase 3: Advanced Features (Optional)
- Ahrefs/Moz API integration for KD (keyword difficulty).
- User login for saved searches.
- Historical trend graphs.
I’ll now begin by generating Phase 1: A working Flask web app with all your existing logic integrated and styled simply. Letās do it. šÆ
Keyword Research App
ā Flask backend is ready! Now Iāll set up the frontend HTML with Tailwind CSS that includes:
- A clean input form.
- Table to display keyword results.
- Download button.
Next up: the UI! Hang tight. šØāØ
from flask import Flask, render_template, request, send_file
import requests
import pandas as pd
import os
app = Flask(__name__)
# Function to get Google autocomplete suggestions
def get_google_suggestions(keyword):
url = f”http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?client=firefox&q={keyword}”
response = requests.get(url)
suggestions = response.json()[1]
return suggestions
Final wrapped-up Flask backend for the Keyword Research Tool:
š§ Features Included:
- Takes a seed keyword input.
- Pulls Google autocomplete suggestions.
- Generates dummy SEO metrics (search volume, CPC, competition).
- Saves the results to a CSV file.
- Allows CSV download from /download.
- No multiprocessing issues (debug mode is off).
ā Next Step: Frontend HTML (index.html)
Would you like me to now give you a ready-made index.html with:
- Tailwind CSS styling.
- Keyword input form.
