Is there a software to find surrounding words to a keyword
-
I believe the surrounding words to a "keyword" are called co-occurences and I was wondering if there a a software that can tell me which word(s) go around a specific word (before or after).
Thank you,

Hello there,
If I understand correctly you want to know the cloud of keywords, and the first thing that comes up to my mind is Ahrefs Keyword explorer. It shows you keywords that are similar or related to your keywords, there's also a beta features that try to tell what is the parent topic (keyword).
Take a look at the screenshot, I wanted know keyword that surrounding "coffee machine" it then shows me thousands of other similar keywords and its parent topic "coffee maker"
You can also check out the "organic keyword" from the top ranking results of a keyword to see what keyword they're also ranking for, so you get an idea of similar keywords.
Ahref isn't free but you can try out with the trial which cost you much less.

MoZ certainly has a keyword suggestion tool, however it is in my experience that it essentially provides numerous variables of the same focused query which is good, however wasn't the answer to the specifics of the question you were asking. The density just seemed at least to me the best way to succeed in pulling the best runner up that isn't directly tied in to the target phrase.
There are definitely numerous tools out there and they all have different angles and approaches that can prove effective. I definitely wouldn't stay with one but rather bounce around and utilize as many as possible.

Thank you for the tip but doesn't the keyword explorez from moz give you that info also ? or do moz only give you the "main" keyword ? I just want to confirm. How about ubbersuggest or lsigraph can they be used toe find the words surrounding a keyword ( in other words do they do similar things as SEO Quake) ?
-
Ya definitely. Best thing to use for this is a free tool called SEO Quake. Goto a page with the ranking keyword or a place of discussion regarding the keyword like Quora, and right click anywhere on the page. Under the SEO quake tab select density. It will show you 1, 2, 3, and 4 word frequencies on that page. Those would be the words surrounding your target keyword that are most relevant to it.

Is Moz not finding the H1s?
Our theme adds a class to our site's H1s. For example:
Keyword Research | | jgoethert
Our front page: ... The blog: ... As a result, Moz is not seeing the keyword in titles when checking using Page Optimization. The theme developer says there is no setting to turn off in order to test this.
My question is, is this a true issue that is hurting our site or is Moz simply not finding it because it only looks for ? Are there other options for troubleshooting this potential issue? Thanks for your future answers.

Disparity between new and old keyword planner
Hi everyone! While performing keyword research using both Google's old and new Keyword Planner, I've noticed a disparity between the two tools. In many cases, the old tool gives a much larger monthly search volume than the new tool. There are a few cases where both tools provide the same monthly search volume for a term, but those are few and far between. Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks in advance!

Question about ranking for long tail keywords
So I am looking at some long tail keywords for my web design company, for example: "website development and design company" The top results are websites that are not optimized for that specific keyword but about "web design & development" in general. The top ranking sites also have quite high PA with lots of links. If I were to create a page specifically about that term would it be fairly easy to rank for since the top ranking pages are not optimized for that keyword?

Keyword Research (dash or no dash)
I have a client that has been optimizing for "print and apply" for the past 5 months. Yesterday they decided it was more grammatically correct to use "print-and-apply." There question to me was "is this going to effect our SEO?" So... I checked the difficulty using the keyword analysis tool, both keywords had the same broad/exact adwords traffic as well as difficulty percentage. When reviewing the top 25 listings for each keyword it looks like the same sites rank in the SERPs between 1-8 and then after that it is completely different. So, is there a better keyword to target? Are these two keywords different enough to truly have separate search results?

The top 8 results didn't even target "print-and-apply" in there content or title tags... Thanks for the input/discussion - Kyle0 -
On-page Keyword Optimization
So I have created a page for the term "denver buick" but the next largest search term is for "buick denver." Should I create another page focusing on this keyword, or optimize one page for both? It's hard to come up with unique content since they are the basically the same term. But most importantly, if I make this new page, how do I incorporate it into the site architecture? Thanks!

Keyword Difficulty: High or Low?
Looked in the FAQ in the Keyword Difficulty tool but it didn't mention whether or not a higher % or lower % is better. I'm assuming that a higher % means that the keyword is more competitive, is that correct?
