Note that you can select a specific country from the list provided or select "Everywhere" for all countries. For this article, we will be using the keywords "SEO marketing company".
The results for all searches will appear as part of your History search results. From here, you can click on the 3-dot icon next to each search result and you will be able to:
View the results of your search. Alternatively, you can click on the keyword in the "Keyword" column.
Search Again - This will open up the specific search that you created, which you can then amend and run again. Note that this is not an edit of the previous search. It will be treated as a completely new search. This is useful, for example, if you have entered a lot of keywords and want to run the same keywords again but for a different database.
Delete the search results.
What information do you get from Ultimate Research?
After selecting View or clicking on the keyword, you will be shown data for the specific keyword(s) that you entered in the topmost row(s), as well as a list of suggested keywords that are often associated with the keywords you entered. The data that you can see at a glance are, average monthly search volume, mini volume trend graph, cost per click, estimated monthly traffic value and pay-per-click competition score.
