Most expensive keywords for 2016

We came across a really useful and interesting tool this afternoon whilst searching around the web for some statistics on expensive keywords. Keyword Keg is a keyword browser extension (Download for Chrome | Download for Firefox) that pulls keyword data from 9 different sources including Google, Youtube, Bing, Amazon, Ebay, Yandex, Yahoo, Wikipedia and Ask.com, and then adds the data to our favourite tools such as Ubersuggest, Google Analytics, Search Console and the likes.
