Intent
Keyword intent, also known as 
search intent, is what searchers 
want to achieve after they conduct 
a specific search. For example, 
when someone searches “buy 
orchid seeds,” the intent behind 
that search is probably to make a 
purchase. But someone searching 
just “orchid seeds” might not want 
to make a purchase.
