Add and Use Online Tools in A1 Keyword Research

Depending on what website, keyword etc. you have selected, A1 Keyword Research will automatically prefill parameters to various online keyword research tools giving you quick access to your favourite online research and analysis tools.

  • A good way to learn more is to open and view the files located in the above directory.
  • For new configuration files to become available, you may need to restart A1 Keyword Research.
  
  
• How they work:
  • The file names are used to categorize the online SEO, PPC and content tools.
  • Edit the configuration files to define behavior, e.g. website url and parameters.
  • All tools are then automatically made available and integrated using category and config information.
  
  
• File naming conventions:
