Keyword List Cleaner

About Keyword List Cleaner

Keyword exports are always messy: the same term three times in different cases, one-word generics mixed with gold, and phrases you would never target. The Keyword List Cleaner tidies a raw list in one pass so you can start planning instead of spreadsheet wrestling.

Paste your keywords one per line, then set optional rules: a minimum and maximum word count, and a term to exclude (a brand name, "cheap", a location, anything off-strategy). Duplicates are removed case-insensitively, keeping the first version of each keyword.

What it does for you

  • Removes duplicates: "Best Coffee Beans" and "best coffee beans" count as one, so volumes and effort are never double-counted.
  • Filters by length: drop vague one-word terms or unwieldy long phrases with the word count limits.
  • Excludes off-limits terms: strip competitor brands, adult or irrelevant words, and anything you never want to rank for.
  • Reports everything: you see exactly how many came in, how many were duplicates, how many were filtered, and the final count.

Copy the cleaned list straight into your keyword map, clustering tool or content calendar.
