Yes, the standard is using Google suggested search terms.

Google: CBD For Headaches
Suggested search: Can Elektra strain help with headaches?

You can use the Google search operator for getting long-tail keywords if you don't want to use any tool. For example, if your main keyword is "Digital Marketing", then add some " **** " before the search term in Google search. You will see some Long tail keyword ideas from Google. You can also find some longtail keywords from "People also ask" from Google.

you find search volume by using the google keyword planner (do people still use this thing anymore??)
as for keyword difficulty... you do realize that this is a metric invented by SEO tools, right? Speaking of which, I don't understand you: you want no SEO tools but you want to find out metrics invented by SEO tools. And by the way, the GKP is also an SEO tool, so yeah... make up your mind, man! You either want to do SEO, or you don't.

And if you're really, really, REALLY against all SEO tools then the only way to find long tail keywords, know their search volume, and also how difficult they are is by simply using your own time, fingers and brain but as someone who has had to do this in the past you can take my word for it that it's not worth it. By the time you manually find 3-4 golden nuggets (which will take you hours at best), people who use SEO tools will have found 100s of such nuggets and will have a considerable advantage against you

I don´t know about a keyword search volume but you can evaluate a keyword difficulty by conducting a manual analysis of the SERP. In fact, this is highly advisable and it´s a way better process to better and more accurately determine whether or not you should target a keyword based solely on how hard it will be to actually rank on the first page of Google.

Make sure to check these guides written by fellow BHWers...

Also, take some time to watch a couple of minutes of this YouTube video where Nathan shows a very basic but powerful way to conduct a manual keyword difficulty analysis...

Also, check these tutorials on keyword research....

As a personal note, I can´t stress enough how critical and important the following topics are whenever conducting keyword research in order to publish content for your site or blog...

Lastly, I know you mention no tools but if you have the budget I would like to highly recommend you this ebook written by our very own @RealDaddy on how to get the most out of Ahrefs when it comes to keyword research.

And that´s pretty much it!

Cheers and stay safe!
