"SEMRush is an essential tool for SEO and More"
What do you like best about Semrush?

Semrush is the power resource of ideas called 'Keywords'. I had loved this tool since the days when It was called SEODigger. The most important thing I love is its innovation with time. That makes it no.1 Digital Marketing tool. There are many many reasons why I love this very helpful tool and their super amazing services.

What do you dislike about Semrush?

Overall there's nothing to dislike about Semrush. They need not enter into AI content creation as human-written content will always be a gem of SEO. They have given a quality product for SEO, so they should only encourage human-generated content.

What problems is Semrush solving and how is that benefiting you?

Semrush is helping digital marketers eliminate guesswork by providing real-time data on websites. There are a number of tools today, but SEMRush is one the oldest and most reliable tools of all.

"The Tool That Defined My Career."
What do you like best about Semrush?

I absolutely love Semrush! It's my go-to tool for all things marketing, not just SEO. Semrush's ability to provide a complete view of a business's digital footprint is paramount. Its tools help me and businesses alike understand where they stand and plan for the future, making it an essential resource. Recently, I've been particularly impressed with Semrush's agency growth kit. It has personally helped me grow so much in 2023. Without it, I genuinely would not have been able to achieve what I have in my career and life.

What do you dislike about Semrush?

Lately, I've been unhappy with the social platform's decision to segment its services and offer a higher tier that agencies or consultants have to pay for. Additionally, I prefer Semrush's training certifications over those offered by third-party agency owners and consultants. Google sets a good example by providing direct Google certifications. Ultimately, passing a test created by an agency owner does not carry the same weight with businesses as passing a Google certification. Semrush is already a powerful tool, and I believe their certifications should come directly from them. Customer support is genuinely amazing BUT, two companies in my experience that set the standard are WIX and WPengine. See what WIX does as their customer service is GODLY.

What problems is Semrush solving and how is that benefiting you?

It appears that they are keeping up with the pace of the market. For instance, they embraced influencer marketing quickly and provided agencies with related tools for their use. A noteworthy aspect of their strategy was providing these tools as trials, which helped in converting those users into loyal advocates who could encourage others to use them.

"Obvious leader in the Field"
What do you like best about Semrush?

Semrush takes the guess work out of ones online website status or stance relative to what is trending successfully. Semrush runs an audit on the website and reports back with very detailed info about the problems it found but it also sends back how to remedy the issues. that is full throttle services. Today, people are online. to gain their attention the competion is thick. Semrush helps one navigate to the other side where success lives. i am impressed with all the info that i am privy too with a FREE account. I'm sure a paid account goes even further with the report, but at the moment i'm just getting acclimated to online due diligence and the array of topical areas to be addressed if one is wishing to gain momentum online. I access Semrush at least once a day. Very easy to implement and intergrates easily with our website. I recently had an issue gaining access to my account. wrote to support. support wrote back. i wrote back. back in the game. efficient customer support.

What do you dislike about Semrush?

Not quite sure i dislike anything about Semrush. Most of my stress is from my own ignorance of the topics.

What problems is Semrush solving and how is that benefiting you?

Semrush solves my problem of behind the scenes issues that I would not be aware of. Like broken links, back lines that are bad or too my references or no H1 headers. i take the suggestions given to me of how to remedy some of this and the next report shows my progress.

"Semrush - Good product & good support"
What do you like best about Semrush?

Semrush is a comprehensive tool for SEO. There's much there, although my experience is limited at this time (I'm a new subscriber to Semrush), the reports I run so far have been helpful. The one support question I've raised was answered quickly, the answer was on-point and the support person was emphatic re my tool knowledge to date. Semrush's automatic daily email reporting re SERPs & keywords for the site I'm using it on are a real plus.

What do you dislike about Semrush?

It's not cheap ! There's nothing else I dislike at this point.

What problems is Semrush solving and how is that benefiting you?

Semrush is saving me a massive amount of time - to do the jobs it does would literally take days if I did these jobs manually.

"Great product - we are seeing some substantial improvements"
What do you like best about Semrush?

Semrush has a wealth of tools. As a small business, we only have the most basic paid plan. However, this has been very helpful for our SEO initiatives. With the help of things like the Semrush Keyword Magic Tool, backlink analysis, and competitor analysis, we continue to improve our rankings and get more traffic to our site.

What do you dislike about Semrush?

It is a bit expensive for a quite small business. We only wish we could access even more of the great tools without having to pay so much additional. However, with the results we are seeing - it is being considered for the benefits it could provide to the business.

What problems is Semrush solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps us with understanding the keyword we rank for, what our competitors are doing, and how to improve.

"Terrific Support!"

Semrush's Customer Success and Support Teams are very responsive to questions and requests for support. I have received nothing but eagerly offered help or support whenever I've requested it. And they seem genuinely happy to be of assistance!

What do you dislike about Semrush?

It's pretty technical stuff, but that comes with the territory. Fortunately, their onboarding program is very strong. There is a lot of support from well-written How To posts to live help from your CS Manager or the Support Team.

"User-friendly SEO analysis and keyword planning"
What do you like best about Semrush?

I use SEMrush more than once a week for SEO keyword planning both at work and in running my personal brand. At work, I love using the SEO Writing Assistant - it's not included in the free version, unfortunately, but that's because it's so good. It literally tells you how well/poorly a piece will rank for certain keywords, readability scores, and more. Customer support has always been pretty easy to deal with, too, when I've wanted to provide feedback on their tool's "tone of voice" recommendations.

What do you dislike about Semrush?

I wish more features were included in the free version, because I can't afford the paid version for running my personal brand.

What problems is Semrush solving and how is that benefiting you?

Choosing what SEO keywords to target, based on volume, competitor usage, etc.
