April 24, 2019

5.0

Pros

The user interface of SEM Rush is the best out of any similar pieces of software. There is a reason why this is by far the most popular SEO software in the industry. We have used for years and have tried many competitors.

Cons

I have no negatives about . I would like some automation tools to be built into it maybe but I'm unsure if this is a realistic need.

June 5, 2022

5.0

Amazing experience with desktop version but disappointed by using mobile phone app.

Pros

One of the best tools for SEO, Keyword Search, and content marketing. The price is also affordable and I would highly recommend this software for SEO content writing and Keyword research. You can use it for SEO PPC Keyword Research Competitive Research Marketing Insights Campaign Management In short, I am in love with this software.

Cons

You can not access it on the phone but its version for desktop is beyond expectations.

### "The best tool for online marketers"

December 5, 2019

5.0

As a marketer I love this tool, having all in one place makes it easier for my team and me to manage everything we do. It also saves us money that we can assign from our budget to other projects.

Pros

provides a diversity of tools that makes it the perfect tool for any marketing team. It allows me to manage SEO, do market research, manage my social media accounts and gather analytics all in one place.

Cons

At this moment is not possible to automatically post my photos into Instagram with their social media management tool, but I know they are working to make this possible

January 18, 2019

5.0

I love de software, but there's one thing I found on Ahrefs and dont on : They have a list of url, keyword, difficult to rank, traffic , etc. who I can be turned on a Spreadsheet and analyse.. And I only put the domain !!

Pros

The chance to correct structural problems on SEO, and the tool to help write content

Cons

Sometimes is complicated to find something you don't use too much..

### "SEMrush is amazing for diagnosing and helping our clients."

December 16, 2017

5.0

Pros

We love the level of analytical detail and research used that allows us to really dig in deep into the data and diagnose what we can do better, what our competitors are doing and what we need to improve upon to maintain our rankings.

Cons

It gets to be expensive, especially to remove branding - but it paid for itself over and over again. I really enjoyed using .

### "The Go-To Search Software"

October 12, 2020

5.0

SEM Rush is our go to SEO tool, we've tried all the competitors over the years, and this is the best.

Pros

The interface is so easy to use, it's almost like a step-by-step programme of doing keyword research. The tooltips are also so useful for explaining the meaning of some of the metrics.

Cons

There are almost too many features! It would be useful to have more visible FAQs somewhere in the top navigation to walk through how to use some of the reports.

Reason for choosing Semrush

Ease of use of interface- I think most of the brands are similar cost wise.

Our business is thriving with SEO and social media has skyrocketed after we used the services available to us.

Pros

What we liked most was the many features available to us on this site. Each had information to support it and teach us how to use it, which was a big help.

### "An Industry Leader in Competitive Keyword Analysis"

February 28, 2020

5.0

When I first started as an intern, my project guide introduced me to . I slowly started to learn from scratch about it and how I could build a content strategy using it. Now that i have mastered it, SEMRush is one of the best tools in the business, but it could use a revamp to make it more user friendly

Pros

1\. Indepth analysis of trending keyword and competitor keywords. 2. The first month is free. For a tool this well built and powerful, the first month free trial is a welcome offer to those who are trying it out for the first time. 3. The variety of extensions is really useful. The social media extension is particularly useful for managing multiple social media accounts. 4. We can handle backlinks across our website from a single place and that is very useful when doing SEO on our website.

Cons

1\. The analysis graphs should be more user friendly and customisable. New users to find it hard to understand them. 2. The User Interface has a steep learning curve and it took me time to adapt to it. 3. The actual competition in terms of keyword traffic can be off sometimes.

### "SEO Strategy 101!"

December 6, 2019

4.0

has guided us in making content planning more strategic, assists us in tracking SEO rank, and is used as our dedicated social media poster tool.

Pros

There are four primary tools that serve dedicated purposes - such as competitive research, keyword research, content marketing support, etc. My favorite metric is Keyword Difficulty - the likelihood your keyword can rank in the top ten within x amount of time. It's a good comparison to CPC.

Cons

Some features that I was originally excited about don't work at all - such as spying on other competitors Google Ads strategy. The tool just doesn't load any information at all. Support said they only can pull national campaign data, but I can't see that either.

### "Feature Rich SEO tool"

October 13, 2020

3.0

Had been bombarded with its ads for a few years now so I decided to give a shot by trying the free trial. A decent tool but not good enough for me to switch from my current tool. Would definitely consider purchasing it if budget is not an issue.

Pros

contains a whole bunch of features for me to fulfill all my SEO task as well as extract critical data to guide business decisions.

Cons

Not the most user-friendly tool in the market, and certainly needed alot of getting used to. Pricing can be quite confusing with so many tiers.

### "Good tool, with a bit of learning curve"

May 11, 2022

4.0

The overall experience has been good but the pricing is on the higher side. Though for the features it offers, it's justified for Enterprise users.

Pros

Love the site audit tool, keyword tracking, content gap, rank tracking and report generation tool. The toxic backlink check has also been a life-saver.

Cons

No-fault of the product but it does require some learning curve to understand each and every aspect of the suite.

### "Use this tool everyday!"

December 4, 2018

4.0

Great tool that our agency uses everyday without fail!

Pros

Extremely useful for SEO purposes - ability to check on rankings, link building, social media, site audits etc. Can also share read only access with clients. Email support is pretty quick too.

Cons

Very expensive and find that you can run out of keywords to track quite easily (with a hefty price increase for more). Search volume not entirely accurate either.

March 26, 2019

Overall a great tool, have been using for over 2 years now.

Pros

Lots of cool features (position tracker, site audit, competitive intel), some of them are available for free. There's a handy browser extension that helps with content marketing (keyword and density suggestions, article length, etc). Love the backlink ideas feature.

Cons

A bit pricey for the full version but worth it.

January 18, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like that this software can show me my website ranks, seo scores, organic performance, and many other insights I do not get with many competitor software. is a great tool for websites of any size.

Cons

My least favorite feature by far is the 1 user being able to login at a time. This creates logistical issues when a team is working on campaign analysis.

February 17, 2021

5.0

I've been using for 3 years and won't be leaving anytime soon - the whole business benefits from it in some way

Pros

I love the keyword magic tool and being able to filter so granually on search terms. Also, the keyword tracking in projects is easy to set up and implementation into Google Data Studio makes it a leader in the business

Cons

I would like an improved trend graph for keywords - currently it's confusing and hard to use

### "A Solid Tool"

January 28, 2019

4.0

An ok tool, but there are better ones out there.

Pros

We used this tool for a while. The tool was easy to use and there are a lot of features.

Cons

The design wasn't the best. That became an issue when sharing reports with clients. Also, the reports didn't seem to be the most accurate. We ultimately switched to another tool, but if that weren't available we would use .

### "SEMrush slices and dices"

April 18, 2019

5.0

Overall my experience has been very good!

Pros

is one of the best SEO tools out there. Anyone who works with SEO tools know that you want to see the whole data picture in order to make good business decisions. That's what SEMrush does. It has the most date (that I know of), so I know that when I make a decision I am working with the most complete data picture available.

Cons

The user interface is actually pretty good, but occasionally I wish it would be presented another way, or let me combine data in unique ways.

### "Best SEO / KW analytics software on the market"

July 27, 2020

5.0

Pros

I've been using SEM Rush for a lot of my e-commerce needs and to track our SEO Progress (I hire SEO Company and send me monthly reports but I still want to use to check on progress and do my own research). Overall I'm very happy and I hope they will add more E-Commerce tools in the future.

Cons

Well I wish the learning process was easier and training videos were straight to the point. I don't need an advanced knowledge so it would be very helpful if I has some basic how to videos or some basic 1on1 training.
