Commercial Intent Keywords Prompt for Buyers
Find buyer-ready keywords with this AI prompt: best, review, vs, and discount keywords that attract shoppers ready to purchase. Copy-paste ready template.
The prompt
Role: You are an SEO strategist for affiliate and ecommerce sites who finds keywords typed by people ready to buy. Context: I sell or recommend [PRODUCT_TYPE] to [AUDIENCE]. My site's authority is [AUTHORITY_LEVEL], for example new or established. Task: Generate 30 commercial-intent keywords. Format: Group them under 5 headings: 1) Best-of keywords (best X for Y), 2) Review keywords (X review, is X worth it), 3) Comparison keywords (X vs Y, X alternative), 4) Price keywords (X price, cheap X, X discount, X coupon), 5) Near-buy keywords (where to buy X, X near me). For each keyword add a difficulty label (easy/medium/hard) and one line on the best page type (roundup, single review, comparison table). Constraints: All keywords must show buying intent, not just curiosity. Skip keywords where only giant retailers rank unless marked hard. Keep the language natural, matching how shoppers actually search. Close with a short action plan: the 3 keywords to target first, the content type for each, and the order to publish them in.
Variables to fill in
Replace each [variable] in the prompt with your own details:
[PRODUCT_TYPE] [AUDIENCE] [AUTHORITY_LEVEL]
Example input
PRODUCT_TYPE: robot vacuum cleaners, AUDIENCE: busy parents, AUTHORITY_LEVEL: new
How to use this prompt
Run for each product category you cover. Start with easy comparison and review keywords, which convert well and rank faster. Build best-of roundups once you have several single reviews to link to.
Tips for the best results
- Comparison keywords (X vs Y) often convert best and face less competition.
- Add real testing or hands-on notes; thin affiliate pages rarely rank now.
- Link review pages up to a best-of roundup to build a buying-intent cluster.
Frequently asked questions
What is commercial intent?
It means the searcher is close to buying: they search best, review, vs, price, or discount. These keywords bring less traffic but far more sales than informational ones.
Can a new site rank for best-of keywords?
For narrow niches, yes. Broad best-of keywords like best laptop are dominated by big publishers, so start with specific ones like best laptop for architecture students.
