Free SERP Similarity Tool: Instantly Compare Keyword Search Results

by Tim Schneider

Ever wonder if two keywords actually mean the same thing to Google? Can you target "how much is an appraiser" and "appraiser fees" on the same page? Deciding this is crucial for effective content planning and avoiding keyword cannibalization.

Optiwing's Free SERP Similarity Tool removes the guesswork. It quickly compares the actual search engine results pages (SERPs) for any two keywords, giving you a clear similarity score and visual overlap. This helps you understand search intent and make data-driven decisions for your content strategy.

What is SERP Similarity?

SERP Similarity measures how alike the search results pages are for two different keywords. We analyze the top ranking URLs for each keyword in real-time. A high similarity score (e.g., above 30-40%) suggests that search engines like Google see these keywords as having very similar search intent. This strongly indicates they can, and likely should, be targeted with a single, comprehensive piece of content. Understanding this is vital for efficient keyword grouping and content planning.

How to Use the Optiwing SERP Similarity Tool

Our tool provides instant insights with live SERP data. It's simple:

  1. Enter the two keywords you want to compare.
  2. Select the target location, language, and search engine (e.g., Google US, Google UK).
  3. Click "Compare SERP Results".
  4. Instantly see the SERP similarity score and a visual comparison showing which URLs rank for both keywords.
