### "SurferSEO is a must have tool for content creation"

May 23, 2022

5.0

SurferSEO rocks and I wouldn't even consider another tool at this point.

Pros

After learning SEO you will realize Surfer saves you a ton of work but letting you quickly see the metrics and is a huge time saver. Simply put it takes out all of the guess work.

Cons

The only con is Surfer lacks dashboards to allow you to see overall numbers and content but it's not a big deal. You can easily work around this and keep track of your work and long term efforts.

Reason for choosing Surfer

Surfer was recommended to me by another colleague and since I trusted his opinion I just went with it.

### "The real SEO tool to help you rank organically"

November 29, 2021

5.0

The support are quick in response. The tool is great nothing to complain about

Pros

Love the content editor. It's easy to share and pass it to my writers and they can just follow whats given score high and we rank out the gate.

Cons

I think they can try to implement some sort of keyword difficulty that uses CPC, backlinks, content score, volume to determine the competition level of a kw.

Reason for choosing Surfer

I use both

August 22, 2022

10/10

Pros

I've been using this software for 2 years, first for the company I work for as an SEO specialist, then for my own travel blogs. Surfer has helped to scale all sites. I love the new Gro Flo feature which suggests new articles to write.

Cons

Sometimes the keywords suggested are not all relevant.

### "Perfect tool for optimizing online content"

August 17, 2021

4.0

Great support and one of the best tools for online content creation. Instant improvement to rankings in google and able to update and optimize old content for even more rankings.

Pros

Aple to implement the surferseo app with our own custom made cms system. A great tool to figure out what the competetion is doing better than you when it comes to content and rankings in google.

Cons

The tool is so powerful that you sometimes agree to changes without asctually fully understanding why the change is a good solution to your content.

### "Great For Content & Copywriters"

February 9, 2022

5.0

Surfer has a great user interface and is easy to use. Customer support is prompt and always helpful.

Pros

I have been using Surfer SEO daily for quite a few months now. It's become an invaluable resource in my writer's toolkit. Two excellent features are the content planning functions (for content clusters creation) and the content editor. I highly recommend it for anyone who is serious about SEO.

Cons

I can't think of any cons except for the fact that the price gets a bit steep if you need to create more than 30 SEO optimized articles per month.

### "You need this software if you do SEO"

August 12, 2022

5.0

Loved it, only positive things to say.

Pros

The best part about Surfer SEO is the ease of use and the UX/UI design plus we get insane results using this software when it comes to SEO.

Cons

The only thing I would say here is it would be nice to have the unused monthly credits roll over to the next month.

March 31, 2023

5.0

Great!

Pros

More than anything else, I love how our blog posts have started ranking ever since we used Surfer. It's a game-changer for us.

Cons

It would be awesome if they were more affordable. But considering the value we're getting, I think it's fair trade.

I love it. The UI is clean and nice and it integrates amazingly with Jarvis!

Pros

I love how it gives me all the keywords that a post needs in order to rank.

There could be text boxes explaining certain features or options to help the user navigate.

### "One of the best SEO tools"

May 8, 2023

5.0

SurferSEO helped me position my site on Google and now I get a lot more visits.

Pros

The best feature of SurferSEO is Content Writer, which allows you to effectively create quality texts for SEO.

Cons

SurferSEO's disadvantage is its poorly performing artificial intelligence in Polish. In English, it works great.

### "Surfer makes writing Blog articles FUN!"

September 18, 2022

5.0

Surfer has been a great tool to help streamline my workflow and productivity. Would absolutely recommend this to other bloggers.

Pros

The integration that Surfer has with Jasper is game changing. It's such a seamless experience editing and optimizing my articles.

Cons

When I type in a keyword search and open the content editor it uses up one Article credit without writing any articles.

### "WOW. Surfer SEO is "Must Have" Technology"

February 27, 2022

5.0

The content intelligence is second to none. The Content Editor, Audit, Planner SERP analyzer are an amazing suite of tools for any person working in SEO, content marketing and even social media. I was able to see HUGE increases in rankings, impressions and clicks from the Google SERPS within 60 days of using the platform.

Pros

The software is easy to use and navigate, even for beginners. The UI is clean and it's very easy to see immediate value when using the platform.

Cons

Not really. I have had nothing but an amazing experience with Surfer SEO.

### "SurferSEO, the SEO tool we love"

May 12, 2023

5.0

Pros

The biggest advantage of SurferSEO is the Content Editor. Before SurferSEO, we were struggling with writing quality articles that can be informative & helpful as well as SEO optimized. Now we rank in top 10 for most of the keywords that we planned. SurferSEO was the best choice for us and helped us increase the traffic by more than 50% since we started using it.

Cons

In the past, there wasn't the option to buy extra credits to buy more articles - and the memberships were kinda costly for us. With the new pricing introduced by SurferSEO, we can buy more credits at a decent cost.

### "Top Tier On-page seo and keyword research tool "

November 28, 2022

5.0

Pros

I really like the scoring component as it helps me to aim for a higher score and often brings in good results

Cons

I think the monthly credits for annual plan should be better, I think I will exhaust them really quickly

### "Start ranking today with Surfer"

August 25, 2021

5.0

Pros

Surfer lives up to its promise of optimizing content to help the chance of increasing ranking on Google. I used Surfer's suggestions to optimize several pages and saw rank increase for them all.

Cons

The UI can add some more features that are available in similar tools. Some of these features are coming to Surfer in beta. I consider these tools as bonus addons to the main mission of optimizing content and not the primary goal of the product.

### "Surfer is our SEO team's foundation"

September 12, 2022

5.0

It has been very great and useful, and crucial to the success of our endeavors of creating content.

Pros

The features it has is a virtual end-to-end when it comes to SEO and content creation. You have everything here to start coming up with content ideas, planning out content ideas, preparing and creating content, and reviewing these published content to make sure your articles are optimized and look good.

Cons

It's still AI, which sometimes can sacrifice a bit of readability in the name of keyword utilization, but it still provides insightful tips on how to best optimize the article.

November 17, 2022

Pros

Surfer is super easy to use and allows me to get everything done in one place. The keyword research, topic clusters, content outline, and editing is super easy to use in Surfer.

Cons

There are some issues using Surfer in Google Docs that I'm sure they'll fix in the future.

### "One of the best onpage SEO tools"

May 24, 2021

5.0

As a small affiliate marketer, it's hard to compete with the big fish. Surfer helps close the gap in detailed SEO and on-page analytics that most big publishers have.

Pros

Surfer makes it incredibly easy to figure out what you need to write to be amongst the top SERP results for a keyword. It breaks down the words you should use, approx. number of times to use words, and the total word count you should aim for. It also helps assess the headlines, images, and other aspects of SEO you'll need to focus on.

Cons

NLP credits should be made available for lower tier plans (Hobby & Basic).

### "Your daily personal SEO assistant"

June 30, 2021

4.0

Pros

Surfer is a tool that can help you drive traffic and conversions with powerful, persuasive content. We live in a world of information overload where our attention spans are constantly being pushed to their limits due to new stimuli bombarding us on every channel. Because of this, we’ve had to change the way we market—spending less time reading through long-copy ads and more time scanning for information quickly before scrolling right past it altogether. With Surfer, users find themselves able to spend less time crafting content strategy and instead spending more time improving content quality.

Cons

Occasionally the Content Editor page reloads, and you have to scroll down again. The tool also requires a little time to process some reports - although this may not always be intentional. That being said, it's doing work for you! Teams are still building features and eventually they'll make the app faster in general.

### "Finally a Content Marketing Tool that Gets French Well"

April 25, 2022

5.0

I really like the tool, it helped me do my work faster and allow more flexibility when it comes to my content marketing offering.

Pros

Not only the software is very useful when working on content marketing initiatives but it can do it in french as well! As I am in Canada, I often get requests for french clients, not a lot of tools are able to work both in french and english.

Cons

The limited amount of queries I can pass in the tool per month at first, but this is manageable with good time management.

[Semrush](https://www.capterra.com/p/151962/SEMrush/)

SEMRush's content templates are good, but only for english content. The french was horrendous.

### "SURFER SEO used at Skrivanek for own and client business needs "

September 12, 2022

5.0

Highly positive! We like to use it both for own and our clients needs. It really helps to our business.

Pros

It's easy to use and really great customer service.

Cons

It does not help a lot with the future "keywords". E.g. there is a a pattern of YEAR KEYWORD, so if you start working in advance for 202X Keyword, no big help is there.

### "On-Page Domination"

June 7, 2021

Pros

1\. Content optimization using NLP 2. Their Chrom extension (keyword surfer) is great FREE alternative of keyword everywhere. 3. Content editor feature 4. Complete Domain audit

Cons

They are providing very few credits of NLP.
