Keyword order on Google Keyword

Google's Keyword Sandbox (https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordSandbox) is a very useful tool, obviously.

Does anyone know if the terms it outputs are ordered in any way?

The generated keywords are not in alphabetical order, so I see three main possibilities:

- generated keywords are ordered by relevance to the input terms

- generated keywords are ordered by search popularity

- generated keywords are randomly ordered (unlikely, as the order seems stable from one search to the next, but not impossible)

Does anyone know which it is?

It's in order of search frequency.

Yes AWA

It certainly is in order of search frequency. You can double check these results by using Overture Tool at: [inventory.overture.com ]

I used both the tools simultaneously, and the order of keywords given is just overlapping in most cases!
