      <title>I Built a Free Keyword Research Tool — No Sign Up, No Limits, No Credit Card</title>

&lt;p&gt;!I got tired of paying $100/month for keyword research tools.&lt;br&gt;
Ahrefs costs $99/month. SEMrush costs $119/month. Even Ubersuggest — which markets itself as "free" — limits you to 3 searches per day before locking you out.&lt;br&gt;
I'm a developer from India. I needed keyword data for my projects but couldn't justify spending more on SEO tools than on hosting. So I built my own.&lt;br&gt;
What I Built&lt;br&gt;
KeywordFinder.dev — a completely free keyword research tool. No account. No daily limits. No credit card. Forever.&lt;br&gt;
Here's what it gives you for any keyword:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;📊 Monthly search volume estimates&lt;br&gt;
🎯 Keyword difficulty score (0–100)&lt;br&gt;
💰 CPC data&lt;br&gt;
💡 Search intent (Informational / Commercial / Transactional / Navigational)&lt;br&gt;
🌿 Topic clusters&lt;br&gt;
📈 8-month trend data&lt;br&gt;
❓ Question keywords tab&lt;br&gt;
⬇ CSV export&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It also supports 8 platforms — Google, YouTube, Amazon, Bing, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest and Play Store. So you can research keywords for wherever your audience is.&lt;br&gt;
Why Free?&lt;br&gt;
Because good SEO data should be accessible to everyone — not just people who can afford expensive subscriptions. Students, bloggers, freelancers, small business owners — they all need this data and they shouldn't have to pay hundreds of dollars a month to get it.&lt;br&gt;
Tech Stack&lt;br&gt;
Built with vanilla HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Backend runs as a serverless function. Bot protection via CAPTCHA. Deployed on a CDN so it's fast globally.&lt;br&gt;
Try It&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;👉&lt;a href="//keywordfinder.dev"&gt; https://keywordfinder.dev&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
No sign up. Just type a keyword and hit Analyze.&lt;br&gt;
Would love your feedback — what features are missing? What would make this genuinely useful for your workflow?&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>I built ToolSphere.dev — a website with 50+ free developer tools</title>

      <description>&lt;h1&gt;
  
  
  I built ToolSphere.dev — a website with 50+ free developer tools
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hi everyone 👋&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I recently launched &lt;strong&gt;ToolSphere.dev&lt;/strong&gt;, a platform that brings many useful developer tools into one place.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While working on projects I noticed I constantly had to open different websites for simple tasks like generating QR codes, compressing images, or creating secure passwords.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So I decided to build a single website that collects these tools together.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What is ToolSphere?
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ToolSphere.dev is a collection of fast and free online utilities designed for developers, creators, and makers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The tools run directly in the browser and most of them do not require login.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Some tools currently available
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;• QR Code Generator&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
• Password Generator&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
• Image Compressor&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
• URL Shortener&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
• JSON Formatter&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
• Gradient Generator&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
• API Response Viewer&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
• AI content tools  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The goal is to make these tools simple and quick to access without installing anything.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Why I built it
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Developers often use small utilities many times during the day. Having them in one place can save time and reduce friction.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Instead of bookmarking multiple websites, ToolSphere tries to provide a single toolbox for common tasks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Try it here
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://toolsphere.dev" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://toolsphere.dev&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Feedback welcome
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is still an evolving project and I’m planning to add many more tools.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you have suggestions for tools that would be useful, feel free to share them.&lt;/p&gt;
