Audience Data

Audience Data

In the competitive digital marketing landscape, researching your target audience is essential as it helps tailor marketing strategies to customers’ specific needs and behaviors. This is made possible through advanced audience analysis, which involves collecting a wide range of audience data to define and understand the target group’s characteristics and engagement potential. This data spans basic demographic details, such as age, gender, and location, and more advanced data, including audience size and the estimated cost of engaging with specific groups.

Audience data is precious for marketers who strive to create highly personalized, data-driven campaigns. Incorporating robust audience data into their platforms adds immense value for marketing tool developers.

Especially access to the following types of data can significantly enhance marketing effectiveness or increase the value and usability of marketing tools:

However, obtaining these types of data can be challenging compared to demographic information and the general interests of the audience.

In this article, we explore how quality audience data can transform your digital marketing. We also explain how to obtain audience estimations, relevant keywords, search intent, and search volume data using APIs. Moreover, we will show you practical examples of leveraging DataForSEO APIs to get real-time audience data.

How can comprehensive audience data transform your digital marketing?

Comprehensive audience data can be a real game-changer in various branches of digital marketing – from increasing the efficiency of advertising campaigns to significantly improving keyword strategies. Let’s explore four powerful ways quality audience data can elevate your digital marketing efforts.

1 Enhanced efficiency and targeting precision of online advertising

Planning effective online advertising campaigns requires meticulous attention and access to advanced audience data to maximize ROI. For instance, knowing only the target industries and demographics might be insufficient to make precise budgeting decisions. Estimating the audience size within specific demographics or regions allows marketers to gauge a campaign’s potential reach and set bid values more effectively.

Additionally, knowing the potential cost of engagement helps to plan the advertising budget effectively, ensuring that funds are allocated to segments with the highest conversion potential. Using audience estimation data not only optimizes campaign budgeting but also prevents overspending on low-yield audiences, improving overall campaign performance.

In this part of the article, we explain how to leverage APIs for audience estimation and altering advertising campaigns.

2 Better keyword targeting through audience-centric keywords

Finding keywords that resonate with your audience is essential for driving organic traffic and improving search visibility. Audience data can reveal the specific terms your target demographic is searching for, going beyond basic keyword research to identify phrases that align with user intent and interests. With audience-centric keywords, you can easily optimize your website content, making it more engaging and relevant to users.

Additionally, audience-centric keywords can be used for more effective and confident keyword planning for advertising campaigns. Targeting search terms that are more likely to attract the attention of potential customers can result in better engagement and conversion rates of ads.

This section of the article covers methods for obtaining audience-focused keywords along with key performance metrics.

3 Continuous optimization of marketing campaigns with actual data

In digital marketing, trends can shift in the blink of an eye, requiring marketing campaigns to be continuously fine-tuned. For this reason, it’s essential to have access to data and keep it updated with constant access to the latest information. Real-time audience data enables you to promptly adjust ad campaigns, reallocate budgets, or refocus on audience segments that show more robust engagement or growth. This way, you can avoid wasting resources on underperforming segments and maximize impact by targeting the audiences most likely to convert.

But how can you establish regular access to fresh audience data? In this case, APIs emerge as a powerful solution with several key benefits:

  1. Fast access to data: APIs retrieve data directly from the source, allowing you to promptly get the information you need and save valuable time.
  2. Real-time access to the latest data: APIs ensure that you always have access to the latest data, ensuring that your campaigns are powered by the latest audience data.
  3. Automation of data retrieval: You can connect APIs to your marketing tools, data storage or use low-code automation platforms like Make.com to automatically receive updates, streamlining the entire data collection process.
  4. Cost-effectiveness: APIs often work on a pay-as-you-go model, meaning you only pay for the data you actually retrieve. This makes them a budget-friendly option without the need for subscription commitments.

Using APIs for audience data enables you to keep your marketing strategies agile, data-driven and streamlines the process of collecting, aggregating and processing data.

Now you know why quality and timely audience data are crucial in digital marketing. At DataForSEO, we understand the critical importance of real-time data, which is why we developed a range of API solutions to deliver comprehensive data directly to you.
 

What kind of audience insights can you get with DataForSEO APIs?

To get advanced audience data like audience estimations, keyword suggestions, search intent, and precise search volume, DataForSEO offers a comprehensive set of endpoints:

Let’s explore in detail how each endpoint works and the types of data they return.

Bing Audience Estimation endpoint

Using the Bing Ads Audience Estimation endpoint, you can get real-time estimation of the potential performance of your Bing Ads campaign based on specific targeting criteria.

The Bing Ads Audience Estimation endpoint significantly differs from its closest counterparts, Google Ad Traffic By Keywords and Bing Keyword Performance. These endpoints provide the estimated performance metrics of ad keywords within a specific location (and, in the case of Google Ad Traffic By Keywords, with a specific bid value and selected time range). Bing Ads Audience Estimation, on the other hand, is designed to estimate the potential reach and cost of an ad campaign as a whole.

This endpoint’s main feature is that it projects an ad campaign’s potential reach and engagement in a certain location based on multiple factors. These factors include location, age, gender, industry, job of the target audience, bid, and daily budget values. Considering all these factors, the endpoint can provide detailed and comprehensive estimations that align with specific audience characteristics and budget constraints. Besides, setting a task for this endpoint is very easy – we explain the task-setting process thoroughly in our Help Center article.

After setting a task, the endpoint returns the result that includes the size of the audience you want to reach, monthly estimated impressions, clicks, and cost per event based on the current targeting criteria. Additionally, the response includes suggested bid and budget values for your campaign to optimize its effectiveness.

With this comprehensive estimation of your ad campaign’s potential performance, you can make necessary adjustments, like altering the budget or bidding according to suggestions. You can also revise the types of audiences you want to target using this data. Besides, using the Audience Estimation endpoint is very cost-effective. You pay only for using the endpoint and nothing else, and the price per task for the Live data retrieval method is only $0,075.

Bing Keyword Suggestions for URL endpoint

To expand your keyword list with audience-centered keywords, you can leverage the Bing Keyword Suggestions for URL endpoint. This endpoint may seem similar to the Bing Ads Keywords for Site endpoint, which also returns keywords relevant to the webpage URL but possesses some unique features.

First, Bing Keyword Suggestions for URL analyzes the content on the webpage and returns a list of keywords directly related to the content. This means that the keywords in the result are specifically curated to match the intent and focus of the webpage, capturing terms that are relevant to the content and likely to attract the intended audience.

Second, every keyword returned has a so-called confidence score, showing how likely each keyword is to match a user’s search query. This score can vary from 0.0 to 1.0 and is defined as a metric reflecting the degree of alignment between the keyword and typical user searches. A higher confidence score (closer to 1.0) indicates that the keyword has a strong relevance and a high probability of being used in search queries related to the webpage. Conversely, a lower score suggests a weaker alignment.

Finally, this endpoint is the easiest way to get relevant keyword suggestions for a webpage. All you need to do is specify the language and a webpage URL in the request. Additionally, the keywords in the result are sorted from those with the highest confidence score to those with the lowest, which is convenient.

Using this endpoint, you can significantly streamline keyword research and focus on keywords that are more likely to engage your audience.

Search Intent endpoint

Knowing the user intent behind search queries is vital for effective keyword optimization or ad campaign planning. With search intent data, you can directly identify which keywords align with specific customer journey stages, allowing you to tailor content and ads accordingly. For instance, informational keywords indicate early-stage research intent, while transactional keywords signal readiness to purchase.

You can discover the search intent behind keywords by using various DataForSEO Labs API endpoints, such as Keyword Suggestions, Keyword Ideas, Ranked Keywords and Search Intent. Based on keyword data and search results data, our system has been trained to detect four types of search intent: informational, navigational, commercial, and transactional.

Among other endpoints that provide search intent data, the Search Intent endpoint stands out as the most convenient one. First, it is ideal for getting search intent in bulk, as you can specify up to 1000 keywords in one request. In addition to primary and secondary keyword intent, you will get a probability score indicating a given keyword’s search intent probability.

Finally, the Search Intent endpoint is available in our new DataForSEO Google Sheets Connector. It enables you to pull search intent data directly into Google Sheets, which can be helpful for quickly identifying keyword intent in a straightforward, accessible format.

Using the Search Intent endpoint is also cost-effective. For instance, if you use Live mode, you will pay only $0.001 per task and $0.0001 per keyword you specify. Thus, the total cost for getting search intent for 1000 keywords will be $0.101.

DataForSEO Search Volume endpoint

Getting keyword search volume is also essential to measuring keyword performance. Accurate search volume data enables you to gauge the popularity and competitiveness of each keyword, helping you prioritize those with the best potential impact. By continuously monitoring search volume, you can adjust your keyword strategy to focus on relevant and popular terms within your target audience and thus maximize visibility.

To get precise search volume values for keywords, we introduced the DataForSEO Search Volume endpoint. Compared with other DataForSEO endpoints that you can use to get search volume, like Google Ads Search Volume, it has a unique working principle and features for advanced search volume estimation.

First, it solves the problem of obtaining a granular search volume for different keywords and their variations. For example, search volume data from Google Ads is represented as the aggregated search volume of all close variants and misspellings under the main keyword. This makes search volume from Google Ads unreliable for granular keyword analysis.

To address this issue, we developed an algorithm that calculates a normalized search volume for every keyword you specify. For estimations, it uses Bing search volume data, which contains more detailed search volume values or clickstream data—information that captures the search terms people use to find websites. In the dedicated Help Center article, we explain in detail how this algorithm works.

Another unique feature of this endpoint is the option to use clickstream data for calculations. The most distinguishing feature of clickstream data is that it captures the actions of real users. Therefore, the number of clickstream searches for specific keywords isn’t based on assumptions or estimates – it reflects real user activity. This nature of clickstream data makes it useful for refining the search volume of keywords. To learn more about clickstream data and its applications in digital marketing, check out this blog post.

Finally, using DataForSEO Search Volume, you can get search volume in bulk for up to 1000 keywords, making it a scalable solution for extensive keyword research. With the current search volume value for every keyword specified, you also get the search volume up to the past 12 months. Setting up a task costs only $0.15, so you can quickly get search volume data for many keywords without breaking the bank.

As you can see, DataForSEO has practical and effective solutions for obtaining comprehensive audience-related data. Let’s review some practical examples to demonstrate our APIs’ capabilities further.
 

Getting audience insights with DataForSEO APIs: 2 use cases

1 Improve search engine marketing with precise audience estimation

Let’s assume you want to create a tailored Bing Ads campaign and drive more potential customers located in New York City to your SEO solutions website. Additionally, you want to precisely estimate your audience size and create engaging ads with relevant keywords.

First, we will use the Keyword Suggestions for URL endpoint to get relevant keywords quickly and the Keyword Performance endpoint to assess their potential ad performance (average bid, impressions, ad position info). Finally, we will use the Audience Estimation endpoint to get the necessary data on audience size and cost of engagement for the ad campaign overall.

Let’s start with the Keyword Suggestions for URL endpoint. We will use this endpoint because it offers the easiest way to get keywords relevant to the website content and match users’ search queries.

POST: https://api.dataforseo.com/v3/keywords_data/bing/keyword_suggestions_for_url/live

Specify the language using language_name or language_code fields and set the exclude_brands parameter to true to exclude brand keywords. Then, in the target field, specify the webpage URL you want to scan for possible keywords. The maximum URL length is 2000 characters.

The request should be structured like this:

You can find a list of suggested keywords with respective confidence scores in the result array. Pay special attention to the confidence_score of each keyword. It shows the probability that a keyword will match a user’s search query. It is represented as a float value from 0.0 to 1.0. The closer the confidence_score is to 1.0, the higher the probability that the keyword will be used in relevant search queries.

Let’s pick out some relevant keywords from the response, for example:

As a result, we have found some relevant keywords that may be suitable for promoting your website. Now, we need to understand their potential in ads, like how many clicks and impressions they can get, and what are the possible budget requirements for these keywords.

To do that, we will use the Bing Ads Keyword Performance endpoint. It returns performance metrics for each keyword over the last month as well as estimated budget requirements for running an ad.

In the response, you will receive information about the average_bid and total_cost for each keyword, as well as potential keyword performance data in ads. For instance, navigate to the keyword_kpi object of “professional seo” keyword. Here, you can see that at the first ad position in SERP, the ad with this keyword can get 14 clicks and 911 impressions with an approximate average CPC of $5.58. The total cost of running an ad with this keyword would be approximately $78.09, and the average bid is approximately $1.03 for this ad position.

Now you understand your Bing Ads campaign’s potential engagement and budget requirements for selected keywords. However, it is essential to know the overall expectations of the ad campaign as a whole, especially the estimated size of the target audience you can reach with ads in New York City and its surroundings. Additionally, you want to know if there is a need to make budget adjustments for the ad campaign for better reach.

We will use the Bing Ads Audience Estimation endpoint to estimate the audience size and get budget suggestions. First, we need to specify the targeting criteria for your campaign.

Let’s assume you want to target female marketers within the computer software industry in New York City and its surroundings. Your target age range is twenty-five to thirty-four, and your daily budget is $110 with a two-dollar bid.

Call the Bing Ads Audience Estimation endpoint:

      ]
    }
  ]
}

In the result array, you can find information about the estimated audience size, estimated impressions, cost of an event, and so on. For instance, the est_impressions upper bound range result is 165900, and the maximum est_audience size is 3200.

Additionally, the suggested_bid is $2.32, and the suggested_budget is $100, meaning that your preliminary bid is lower than needed and the daily budget is slightly higher. In this case, you can increase the bid from $2 to $2.32 and decrease the budget from $110 to $100.

Overall, using the abovementioned endpoints, we got a list of relevant keywords for the Bing Ads campaign, evaluated their potential performance in ads, and estimated the size and cost of engagement of the target audience in New York City. With all this data, you can easily start the new Bing Ads campaign and be confident in its potential results.

2 Expand keyword strategy with audience-relevant keywords

Suppose you want to expand your website’s keyword strategy and update its content with audience-centric keywords. To accomplish this, we will use a combination of Keyword Suggestions for URL, Search Intent, and DataForSEO Search Volume endpoints.

We will start with the Keyword Suggestions for URL endpoint again. It is also beneficial for quickly expanding the keyword list with relevant keywords, because it gives keyword suggestions based on the website’s content and every keyword comes with a confidence score. As we remember the confidence score shows the possibility of keyword matching the user’s search query.

POST: https://api.dataforseo.com/v3/keywords_data/bing/keyword_suggestions_for_url/live

As in the previous example, specify the language and set the exclude_brands parameter to true to exclude brand keywords. Then, in the target field, specify the target webpage URL.

After getting the result, let’s pick out some keywords with high confidence scores, for example:

As a result, we have a list of keywords that are relevant to users’ search queries. Let’s move on to the Search Intent endpoint to discover the actual search intent behind these keywords. We need to know search intent to understand which keywords are used for informational searches, product comparisons, or immediate purchases, allowing us to tailor content more effectively to user needs.

The Search intent endpoint is available in our new DataForSEO Google Sheets Connector. Let’s see how to use it to get search intent for relevant keywords. Following our comprehensive guide, you can effortlessly connect DataForSEO endpoints to Google Sheets.

Once you have installed the Google Sheets Connector extension, navigate to Tools — Keyword Suggestions — Keyword Search Intent via the menu on the right. In the sheet, specify your keywords and language. After that, hit the “Run” button to send a request.

Here is the result. The sheet shows the search intent type for a given keyword in the right “Intent” column. As we can see, all of the keywords have the commercial search intent and can be used, for example, to target users who are actively researching products or services with the intent to purchase.

After getting the list of relevant keywords and discovering their search intent, let’s use the DataForSEO Search Volume endpoint to evaluate the amount of traffic they can bring to a website.

We chose this endpoint among others, because it can provide granular search volume estimations based on clickstream data. As we mentioned, clickstream data is generated by real users, so it gives a reliable picture of keyword popularity. This level of accuracy allows us to prioritize keywords that are most likely to drive high-quality traffic.

POST: https://api.dataforseo.com/v3/keywords_data/clickstream_data/dataforseo_search_volume/live

In the request, specify the location, language and write your keywords in the keywords array. Additionally, you can specify use_clickstream parameter with true to get clickstream-based search volume.

Request example:

[
  {
    "location_code": 2840,
    "language_code": "en",
    "use_clickstream": true,
    "keywords": [
      "best seo tools",
      "cheap seo tools",
