mistakes in keywords in keyword planner

[Святослав Степаненко]

Hi.

 

I try to understand, should I use current keyword for my campaigns, for example “job drver” (yes, with mistake).

I check in Keyword Planner through interface and get “job driver” (right spelling) and all info about volume, competition etc.

But when I use API, I get right info about volume and competition, but I didn’t get right spelling, API return “job drver”, not “job driver” as I expect.

What parameters should I use to get “job driver” instead of my source keyword?

 

Thank you.

Hi, 

If you call the TargetingIdeaService with a keyword which is incorrectly spelled, this service returns the stats for the corrected word. Ideally, the correction is very close to what Google search will suggest while you are trying to search for that specific word or phrase. You could check here for an old forum discussion about the keywords with incorrect spelling.
