### "No need to spend $Ks per month when you can get the same services for less"

January 18, 2019

5.0

Pros

seems to offer all the same services as some of the larger shops I've spoken with, and for much, much less. It may not hold your hand as much as some of the expensive ones, but it does a good job with recommendations and actionable strategies.

Cons

Some of the competitive analysis can leave you scratching your head, although that is mainly trying to figure out how some of your top competitors even get up there, when they seem to violate proper SEO.

### "Actionable insights on SEO"

January 7, 2020

4.0

Overall a great tool for Google Ads analysis and keyword competition.

Pros

is a multi-tool of SEO tools. We rarely need to step outside SEMrush to get insight into our website SEO performance. It gives you some great easy-to-read and well-rounded site reports and I should say that even with the basic SEO knowledge they will be enough to get a broader picture of what's going on with your traffic.

Cons

Traffic predictions are inaccurate and they are there simple as a gimmic and not something you can rely on.

Pros

Scrivendo articoli per il web ho bisogno di tools che mi aiutino nella ricerca delle keywords per poter indicizzare ciò che scrivo. mi ha aiutata molto in questo senso.

### "Great Keyword Research!"

July 29, 2019

This program has been very beneficial for me with keyword research and discovery for SEO and PPC accounts. Also getting competitor information and so much more!

Pros

The keyword research is amazing on this. SO many opportunities to be discovered for SEO and PPC purposes.

### "Great insights but not super actionable"

October 10, 2017

4.0

No benefits so far, sorry to say.

Pros

I like how this tool analyzes SEO in a way that I've never seen before, so it brings a lot to the table.

Cons

Unfortunately, due to different constraints posed by the web building tool that I'm using, turning the analysis into strategies and actions are not that easy.

### "All-in-one analytics tool"

March 17, 2019

5.0

So far it's been very helpful in providing a lot of information about our marketing efforts

Pros

There is so much within this one tool. I am using it mostly for the social tool but it is very helpful with finding the SEO keywords and content generator tool. Being able to schedule the social posts has been easiest for me.

Cons

Since there is a lot to offer, there could be more ease of using the site itself but once you figure out how to navigate it's pretty manageable

### "Best Product to automate your diagnosis and competitor analysis"

May 29, 2020

4.0

Excellent! I will definitely renew if I find the same deal like I have last year.

Pros

This tool makes website technical analysis and performance in terms of ranking automated. So, your team can invest time in resolving those issues rather than finding. This is the best part.

Cons

Give more details about the paid promotion. Remove a few technical suggestions which don't make sense.

Reason for choosing Semrush

\# of Features and # of projects it can handle

### "In-depth analysis for your SEO boost"

March 5, 2019

4.0

Pros

The only trustworthy source of analysis back in the day was Google Analytics. has evolved in the last few years to stand out as a top tool for for SEO research work. Conventional research becomes necessary using GA however a more in-depth insights is something which comes handy with this tool.

Cons

Eventually since most of the analysis data comes from google, it won't define the top ranking keyword for each page and similar insights

Pros

What i liked most about the software was the ability to see what the competitors were doing in terms of their SEM research. It gave great insights on how to better calculate ours

Cons

There are some areas where it seems like information is just being repeated. The keyword research tool could also stand to be a bit more concise.

### "Excellent search visibility trarcking but A complicated UI"

August 20, 2021

5.0

Overall, I use this in parallel with Moz but Moz is still my primary SEO tool and SEM rush is a secondary tool. A more refined UX may see me make a switch! But SEM rush is a potent and powerful SEO tool nonetheless.

Pros

The excellent frequency with which the search visibility is tracked is an excellent feature. I usually use Moz for SEO work. But Moz only updates search visibility once a week. Whereas SEM Rush would update search visibility every day (4 hourly, I think) which is excellent if you want to see the impact of some changes such as technical SEO fixes. The other excellent feature that I found exclusive to SEM rush was PPC competitor tracking. Knowing what competitors are bidding on is beyond the realm of a usual SEO software and is a great addition.

Cons

My biggest gripe is the UI. The UI and the menu structure is cluttered and confusing. It appears that there are too many features crammed into the vertical UI and the categorisation is confusing which does not allow me to leverage the tool to its full potential.

### "A market leader for keyword research"

September 24, 2019

5.0

offers a pleasant overall experience, I am recommending it.

Pros

provides a very comprehensive intelligence about keywords and anything SEM-SEO-related. It is pricey but totally worth it.

Cons

Nothing, what's not to like? You'll get huge value for your money, and you can test it for free anyway.

### "A must have for teams that need to track their website keywords"

February 14, 2021

4.0

We are using to monitor our performance on the website keywords and for the social networks activities.

Pros

This is a powerful tool to track keywords and understand in a deep and reliable way how your website is performing from SEO perspective.

Cons

It is clear that it is addressed to a worldwide market specifically thought for the English. We see a limitation in the usage if you want to breakdown the SEO performance on different languages and different market.

### "Powerful But With A Learning Curve "

February 17, 2021

5.0

I’ve been using to develop keyword ranking strategies for organizations and perform audits of their current state to identify technical SEO issues that need remediation.

Pros

has features that some SEO services costing much more do not have, such as very robust keyword ideation functionality.

Cons

The learning curve for can be a bit difficult, as the software uses its own nomenclature for features in many places instead of more industry standard terms. It’s “marketing speak” for the most part.
