Traffic Travis's KW search volume no longer visible?

I know Google's Keyword planar has removed the precise search volume numbers unless you have a running adwords campaign since months ago, and now the same thing to Traffic Travis? In Traffic Travis I only saw the "1k-10k" in the search count as what is seen in Keyword planar.
Any way to get the precise numbers back in Traffic Travis? Or any alternative solution/tool?
Thanks.

 Hi,

Yes that is correct. TT also relies on Google search data. You may want to check this article out (it may help): https://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/accurat ... word-data/

 That article shows a convoluted way to extract keyword data out of google keyword planner (thanks for the recommendation).

The relevant to question for me is; will Traffic Travis be able to provide detailed keyword analysis anymore?

I'm still puzzled as to why google thinks this was a smart idea. I"ll bet the change has two reasons, 1. google wants people to pay money for adwords. 2. They want people and business to focus on ad groups instead of strictly optimizing for individual keywords.

 Traffic Travis CANNOT supply you with accurate search volume like before because the data you get from TT is the same data from Google. Like I have explained, TT only gets its data from Google.

Google does not want to share the exact number of search volume because yes, they want people to invest in their paid ads instead of getting organic traffic from them.

 It seems Affilo Tools still provides the exact search numbers?

Yes, they are different because Affilotools has its own way of collecting data. It does not depend entirely on Google Keyword Planner.
