### "Very good and it makes be better SEO"

October 20, 2022

5.0

Pros

Ease of use, that's it. The best thing about the surferseo. In addition I like very much about the content planner feature. It helps me cluster all the necessary keywords together. And I like also audits.

Cons

Price, of course it's always the case. But I'm still happy to pay it, because it gives my partners more confidence to write long form articles.

### "SEO Staple"

May 28, 2021

5.0

Pros

Content editor and keyword density are the mosted used for me.

Cons

It needs manual review and a human eye for serps analysis. You need to read between the lines and tweak things in the content editor to be more accurate in terms of things like word count and keywords to use.

### "Good for content optimisation"

September 3, 2021

5.0

I have been using surferseo for keyword review in order to optimise blogs. Overall a good tool but in the integrated content optimisation feature it is not very easy to meet the optimisation requirements so usually my team changes the baseline of the metrics

Pros

Variety of data for keywords, LSI, content optimisation

Cons

Perhaps pricing could be lower but I have not used full features to have a better opinion

### "Can't imagine doing SEO without it"

March 8, 2022

5.0

Been using it for a year, just purchased an annual subscription for another year. Can't imagine doing SEO without it anymore. Consistent, high ranking content every time. I've used it to create over a thousand pieces of content with various clients in the past year and Surfer consistently delivers. Cluster your content and then run it through Surfer, works every time.

Pros

Takes all the guesswork out of on-page SEO

Cons

It's not cheap, but it pays for itself. After spending a year paying month by month, I bought the annual subscription since I know I'll use it enough to get my moneys worth in first 2 months alone.

### "Excellent Software For Content Planning & Optimization"

April 15, 2022

5.0

Whenever I have to create content for my blogs I use surfer. It helps me to create SEO-optimized content fast. Integrating surfer with my business helped us to rank on high competitive keywords with less work.

Pros

Best software for writing SEO-optimized content. The content planner tool is great for planning pilar & cluster content and organizing them. This tool has a simple and clean interface and it is beginner friendly compare to its competitors.

Cons

Compare to other website auditor tools, I don't find surfer much useful when it comes to auditing my website. And sometimes the keyword research tool does not give accurate data, they should improve it.

### "Surfer SEO is awesome for new bloggers"

May 7, 2022

5.0

I write articles much faster now! And I'm finally starting to rank on Google now, with Surfer (and Jasper's) help.

Pros

I love how easy to use Surfer is. I'm a new blogger (only blogging for a few months now) and I really appreciate how easy Surfer is to use. I'm able to do my keyword research on Surfer and then I write the articles using the keywords that it provides me with.

Cons

I guess the cost? As a new blogger, I'm not yet making money from my articles. Hopefully with Surfer's help, this will change!

### "Take your SEO Game to the NEXT LEVEL"

August 4, 2022

5.0

Pros

Surfer SEO changed everything for me. No longer do I need to try to shoot in the dark when it comes to ranking high on Google with my blog posts. Surfer shows specifically how to write an excellent article that compares to the competition ALREADY ranking for those keywords. This makes everything easy and makes me wonder how I ever wrote articles before I had Surfer. AMAZING software.

Cons

I have nothing bad to say about it. The software is incredible and really helped to level up my business.

### "SEO Must have"

May 27, 2021

5.0

Currently, we use Surfer for almost any text (if the client has a budget for decent text). Above all, the program allows you to achieve better results both in positions and in long tail visibility. In addition to improving each text in terms of SEO, we also use it to plan publications and guides.

Pros

Complex seo tool for text planning and writing. Also good to research SERPS. It can also help with internal and external links. Most important - using Surfer gIves huge boost to organic traffic

Cons

Quite difficult to properly implement a new text. That requires experience, but even when you don't have experience you will score better traffic using surfer.

Reason for choosing Surfer

It was quite weaker in my experiments.

August 23, 2021

5.0

Pros

It's such a powerful tool to find out how you're doing with your article in terms of SEO compared to others and knowing exactly how to improve your text so that you can rank in the top 10.

Cons

it takes a bit of time to get used to - it's worth watching some of the training videos.

### "Surfer: The Magical Assistant For Optimizing Content"

June 17, 2021

5.0

It's worthwhile for any website owner who wants to take their rankings to the next level. It stops me from wondering how best to approach trying to optimize my content for ranking in google.

Pros

With features like keyword research, optimizing content, and streamlining the process of creating content -Surfer is a powerful user friendly platform that saves me time.

Cons

The only downside is the credit system, limiting how many times you can do a specific task. Of course, there are plans where you have access to more!

### "A fantastic piece of software for SEOs"

May 31, 2021

5.0

It has helped us a lot with creating high quality content and optimising our existing content with the aim of increasing rankings and traffic.

Pros

The high-level insights Surfer provides, are extremely helpful and time saving when building out our content strategy.

Cons

I think the management of different projects could be a bit better than simply adding tags. A feature for separate files or projects would certainly be helpful.

There is nothing I dislike about Surfer.

### "Helps you narrow down your content options"

May 12, 2022

5.0

So far I am loving it. It helps me focus and brings all the tools of clustering together. It would be nice if content editors would show up in other content planners. For example, if one is creating content for different content planners and inside those planners there's duplicate article (post) suggestions. I'd love to see it reflect as a Content Editor on ALL the content planners.

Pros

The Content Planner is my fave feature. It helps take all the ideas in my head and bring the content together in a systematic logical way.

Cons

Limitations on the quantity of Content Editors. I feel 10 is low for the price for that tier. I would like to see 20.

### "A Must Have for New Bloggers! "

August 5, 2022

5.0

I've used surfer for about 4 months so I'm still relatively new.

Pros

I've spent almost all of my time so far using the content editor. It takes all of the guesswork out of keyword research once you identify the main target keyword.

Cons

The cost is a bit high so if you're a casual blogger this might not be the product for you. I use it daily so for me the investment is a no-brainer.

January 11, 2023

From the very beginning this product did not disappoint. Ease of use and a basket of very very helpful tools that make ranking your content far easier. You actually have a roadmap as to what to spend time on to get your content ranking high in search.

Pros

The ease of use and the amount of feature rich tools that Surfer SEO offers

Cons

If I had to say something it would be that I would like more pages to edit per month with their tool.

### "#1 SEO Tool for Content Creation and Competitor Analysis"

July 19, 2021

5.0

Surfer has been a great help for me and my team for planning content, give writer assignments, and optimizing the content

Pros

Surfer helps me and my team optimize pages and posts easily with the recommended factors to optimize instead of doing it manually like before.

Cons

Noticed that I can't add images at Jarvis when connected to Surfer. I need to copy the content and paste it in surfer and the images and paste it back to Jarvis.
