Three tools in Google Keyword Planner can help you find Search Engine Optimisation keywords.

The keywords you get from the option Search for new keywords using a phrase, website or category gives you keywords closely related to the seed keywords you put in. This option helps you generate new keywords to target.

- Rank Checker
Rank Checker is a tool that tells how high you rank in search engines for a particular keyword.

You can also get a keyword data list by connecting Google Analytics with Search Console.
