So no matter the match type, Google will be providing you with additional keywords, making it a great place to find keywords for your organic strategy.

Here’s how to find them:
- Open your Google Ads account
- Choose All Campaigns in the navigation pane on the left.
- Open the Keywords dropdown menu and select Search Keywords. The list you’ll see are keyword phrases you’ve given to Google.
- Select (by checking the box) some keywords that are performing successfully. Successful could mean:
– a decent amount of impressions
– a high click-through-rate (CTR)
– a low average cost-per-click (CPC), or
– a combo of the above. - A blue section should appear once you select keywords, click on the Search Terms option.
And there you have it, a bunch of keywords ripe for the picking.
