Question about Keyword Analysis

Hello Guys,

I have a question about a new way for me to test a keyword's volume potential.

I've been testing lately, and I noticed on numerous occasions with a lot of keywords, let's say with SEO tool like Ahrefs, I get a "search volume of 0 / per month" in their data.

And when I test from a different SEO tool like SEMrush, I get a "search volume of 500/month".
  • So my first question is which one of these two should I believe?
  • My second question, to test the actual volume of those keywords, I publish empty articles with the keywords in their titles, and index the page on "Google Search Console", and after a few days I go back to check if there are any impressions. So if I publish "empty articles", will that hurt my SEO/site?


Thank you for your help!

    Why not test with Google's keyword tool?

      Well I tested the free version but it seems not to show much.

      Do you use it regularly? Is it more reliable than the other tools?

    To my knowledge, the tools that show the keyword search volume each have their own rules and each one shows the results based on some logic. I don't know if there are any tools that show the exact result. However, SEMrush and Keyword Revealer seem to show more accurate results than other tools. Moreover, if you want, Ubersuggest can also be put in the option.

      Thank you! I did a comparison of what I get in my search console, and i compared it with the metrics that both tools show, none of the tools are exact, but it seems SEMrush is definitly more accurate.
