Google Keyword Ideas (volume, CPC, difficulty, intent)

Volumes come from Google Ads. Google groups close variants (like "standing desk" and "desk for standing") and reports the same volume for each, so expect repeated numbers at the top of a list. keywordDifficulty runs from 0 to 100: how hard it is to rank in Google's top 10. trendYearlyPct compares the latest month with the same month a year earlier.
