How are the results organized?
Related topics are sorted by relevance to the initial search.
Where does the related keyword data come from?
Related keywords are sourced directly from Google search.
Can I use advanced search operators? Which ones?
Yes. The Topic Explorer accepts common advanced search operators.
use OR to search for multiple topics at the same time
use a minus sign (-) to remove a term from your search
use exact match quotes (" ") to find exact matches for phrases
You may also combine these advanced operators in a single search.
BuzzSumo also assumes AND in any search and does not require you to enter it (e.g. a search for content marketing is the same as a search for content AND marketing).
Check out our guide on search design in BuzzSumo for more information.
What is the time frame for results?
BuzzSumo pulls in relevant topics by querying on our entire historical database (5+ years).
Are searches case sensitive?
Nope!
Can I save my search or export the related topic data?
You aren't able to save topic searches or export the results of a Topic Explorer search at this time, though it is something we are exploring for the future.
