What is a People Also Ask (PAA) explorer?

A PAA explorer predicts the questions Google surfaces in the 'People also ask' accordion for a search query, along with the follow-up questions that expand under each. It's the fastest way to map the exact question set a page needs to answer to capture featured snippets and AI Overview citations.

How is this different from a keyword tool?

Keyword tools score search volume. A PAA explorer maps intent: the literal, question-shaped queries the SERP already rewards. Turn each PAA into an H2 or FAQ entry and the same page becomes eligible for both the PAA box and AI Overview citations.

How do I use the CSV export?

The CSV has three columns — parent question, answer, and comma-separated child questions. Drop it into a content brief, sort by intent, and assign one H2 (or FAQ) per row. The 'Copy FAQ JSON-LD' button gives you drop-in schema for the top-level questions.

Are these the exact questions Google shows right now?

They're a high-fidelity prediction, not a live scrape. Google rotates PAA items by user, device, and time, so a fixed snapshot goes stale within days. Use this to build a page that covers the intent space, then confirm inclusion in Search Console.
