Here is what you should do instead:
1. Look at how many comments competitors have
Comments on blog posts ranking for a keyword can be one of the strongest indicators that it receives a lot of traffic.
2. Check YouTube videos ranking for the keyword in Google
Since people sometimes click on YouTube videos when searching for something on Google, a video with high view counts can indicate that the KW gets traffic.
3. Check forum views/comments
If a forum, like Quora or Reddit, has a high number of views and comments and ranks for the keyword, this indicates high search volume.
4. You rank for a similar search query, and it gets a lot of traffic
If you want to target a fried red tomato recipe, but you already rank for a fried green tomato recipe and it gets a lot of traffic, chances are a similar term will perform well.
