Negative keywords for tutoring services
Tutoring budgets go to people applying to be tutors, students looking for answer keys and homework solutions, and free practice worksheet hunters. This list blocks them and keeps the parents paying for help.
Updated
Before you paste: what NOT to block
Price and test-prep queries are the parents you are paying to reach. Keep these:
- math tutor near me
- sat tutor cost
- online tutoring for kids
- tutoring prices per hour
- reading tutor for dyslexia
Every list on this page is a starting point, not a decree. Scan it against your own offer before applying — one business's junk click is another's best lead.

View listFrequently asked questions
Should a tutoring company block "khan academy" and "chegg"?
Yes. Those searchers have chosen a free or self-serve tool and want the brand, not a person. A parent who has watched a child struggle through Khan Academy searches the subject plus "tutor", which this list leaves alone.
Why block "essay writing service" when we help with essays?
Because the searcher wants the essay written for them, not coaching. Those clicks are students looking to outsource the assignment, and an ethical tutoring service cannot sell what they want. "Essay tutor" and "writing tutor" stay unblocked.
These are generic industry negatives - safe in most accounts of this kind, but not tuned to yours. Inside Keyword Ninja, the Smart Blocklist cross-checks this exact catalog against your real search terms and shows the wasted spend before you block a single word.
