Keyword Planner has gone totally bad

[catherine paiz]

In my early days of marketing I used keyword planner extensively. They were free to us, gave detailed information about any kw entered, gave kw ideas and much more. Over the time I started using paid tools such as wordstream as because paid tools its is easier to send and file reports.

I haven't used the kw planner in the recent years. Now a couple of days earlier I tried to use it. I am just speechless how bad it has gotten now. I mean you can't even do a proper search without google asking you to search a campaign. And the searches they are the worse ones. The thing I noticed that if you don't start a campaign then  it will probably show you wrong the results of kw's entered

  Paid tools can offer more features. It's disappointing when a previously useful tool becomes less accessible or reliable. there are so many other tools you can use them.
