Perfect Your Online Ad Campaigns With These 4 Free Tools

Running an online ad campaign can feel like a full-time — and for a lot of people, it is. But if you don’t want to hire a marketing firm to buy and manage your tour company’s ads, it’s definitely possible to do it yourself. It doesn’t have to be a headache; these free tools can help.

Ubersuggest

Google has its own tools for keyword research, but they’re not exactly straightforward. Ubersuggest is incredibly intuitive and can show you everything you really need to know about a keyword. You’ll get the big stats, like volume, cost-per-click, and competition. You’ll also get 100 related keyword ideas with their own search volume and CPC listings.

Ubersuggest uses data from SEMrush, which has more comprehensive information. But if all you need is a free overview of the effectiveness of any keyword, Ubersuggest keeps it simple and clear.
