Features of SE Ranking
Reviews of SE Ranking
So far So Good
Pros:
I have been using this software for more than a year now. It is relatively cheaper as compared to ahrefs and semrush but does the job well. Mostly i use this software for rank tracking and sending reports for my clients. Saves my hours on preparing report.
Cons:
There is no GMB optimization feature and some limitations on keyword research.
A very good tool for seo
Comments: I am very happy to work with Seranking
Pros:
The options and information it provides at a reasonable price
Cons:
So far I have not found any missing tool.
Alternatives Considered: Semrush
Reasons for Switching to SE Ranking: I wanted to try it because the price was better for me
Support
Pros:
It has the features that I'm looking for.
Cons:
There's no structure or organization of the said features. Support is the worst I've ever experienced in my 20 years in this industry. I mean that literally. Collecting money without proper support is a bad business practice.
Alternatives Considered: Semrush
Reasons for Choosing SE Ranking: Rank Ranger lacked features
Switched From: RankRanger
Reasons for Switching to SE Ranking: Semrush seemed extremely expensive.
Multi purpose SEO tool to track ranks, do keyword research, and technical SEO audit.
Comments: We are an enterprise website and need to track more than 30000 keywords on a regular basis. We were using a rank tracking tool named Rank Tracker by SEO Powersuite. But in the recent times Rank Tracker started having a lot of bugs and hence we were not able to use it well. We tried SE Ranking as an alternative and it meets most of our criteria
Pros:
- The tool can help you track the ranking for your keywords very accurately - It also helps you with the list of "Rich Results" that appear for a given keyword in Google SERP - It can accurately calculate search volume for a keyword - You can also perform a technical SEO audit
Cons:
- Although, it can help you with the rich results that appear in the SERP but it does not help with the position of each of these SERP results. - The tool is relatively expensive but it is very accurate
Excellent and very complete seo tool, with many subscription options.
Comments: excellent
Pros:
It is a perfect tool as a complement to ensure a good job of web optimization, SEO and SEM, to our clients. Very complete software and, not least, with many subscription options.
Cons:
In principle we did not find any cons. Perhaps the estimate of paid traffic falls somewhat short, it does not always show a very real estimate, but we really don't know if it is something attributable to the software or to the availability of data itself.
Very Surprised
Comments: I am very surprised by the quality vs pricing of SE Ranking. They are fair, projects are great, it's simple to use and also very intuitive. I just became a fan!
Pros:
Easy to use Great Interface Accurate Information Site Audit is just amazing
Cons:
Didnt find any cons. I am enjoying this software very much
Alternatives Considered: Ahrefs
Reasons for Choosing SE Ranking: Pricing
Switched From: Semrush
Reasons for Switching to SE Ranking: I like the way SE Ranking communicate, their social media is very informative. I had a great impression overall with SE Ranking.
Great functionalities for the best price in the market.
Comments: I have been working with SE Ranking the last months. It works great. An essential tool to check the rank of the keywords on Google.
Pros:
Allow rank keywords and competitors. Great prices, probably the best one in the market. Also allow site audit. monitor backlinks. keyword suggestion tool, white brand depending the plan you hire. Group keywords, monitor changes.
Cons:
I don´t see any cons. Everything work as supposed to be.
Very Comprehensive SEO Tool
Pros:
SE Ranking has everything you need to create a good SEO strategy for your websites.
Cons:
It could be somehow difficult to catch everything if you are a new user. They have A LOT of possibilities, so there is a little learning curve to become an advanced user.
It's the Keyword Grouper!
Comments: Like I said: It really makes the keyword research much more valuable. And actually I just use that part of the tool.
Pros:
The Keyword grouping function. It makes your keyword research so much more valuable! You can group keywords by the similarity of the resulting SERPS. That has the effect, that you can group content together. A function that no other seo tool that I know of allows for.
Cons:
It takes some time until you get your results. If you're grouping some thousand keywords, it takes hours. But that's okay.
Alternatives Considered: Semrush
Reasons for Switching to SE Ranking: Actually, I don't know any tool that allows for keyword grouping with the same logic that SE Ranking offers.
Great tool
Pros:
It's really easy to use and the number of daily analyses is very interesting.
Cons:
It would be nice to have the possibility to make analysis of website in bulk.
Best Value for money !
Comments: I am glad to use it, value for money is the peak of it features, you can easily monitorize KW ranking and do KW research w/o problemns
Pros:
User-friendly interface and easy to navigate,
Cons:
Sometimes I have the feeling the data is not accurate (80%) , I am talking about rankings traffic and search volume , if you are not strict about that not a big issue
Alternatives Considered: Ahrefs and Semrush
Reasons for Choosing SE Ranking: Customer service, monthly fee rise w/o "real" notice, high price
Switched From: SISTRIX
Reasons for Switching to SE Ranking: Price
Support by [sensitive content hidden]
Pros:
The support that I receive from her was very usefull for my setup. I will bring up 5 accounts to SERANKING
Cons:
I dont know yet because I recently install de software and the projects
Best Seo Platform
Pros:
It´s great I have everything include. The team respond very quick.
Cons:
I like everything, because it is very intuitive.
SE Ranking better than ever since major change
Comments: It gives me more insights in websites and when I show that to clients; they really understand that I can be helpful to them. I have contact with their helpdesk weekly; they respond fast and clear
Pros:
It gives all the information I need and many insights to get the work done. Their help desk is great and fast end help full
Cons:
I have to think hard about what I like less.. nothing comes up at the moment
This tool is really good, they have some well thought out features that are genuinely useful.
Comments: Affordable, useful, well thought-out tools that show promise for even more features in the near future. This tool has made my work with clients much easier and efficient. They like it for its clarity. I like it for its unique and genuinely useful features that work well and deliver to my expectations. I've already recommended this to most people I know.
Pros:
I like that you get a fair keyword allowance. If I'm tracking 50 keywords on desktop, I can track those same 50 on mobile without it being deducted from my total keyword allowance, this is something I've been ripped off by other tools in the past. I like that you can add a monetary value to your keywords dependent on their position and other variables, this is great to show value to clients. I like that you can import keywords directly from search console and monitor them. I think the backlink tool useful and has some good metrics in the dashboard. Reporting is good because clients understand it. the competitor analysis and auditing tools are very useful too. Showing overall metrics is great for clients and a quick bird's eye view of performance. It's also a responsive layout, so I can use it on my tablet (seems trivial but most bigger tools are hard to use on smaller screens) I've been told that most of the features that are missing are being worked on and will be implemented soon. I expect them to be just as useful and intuitive too. Overall, the value for money, fairness and useful tools make this a good investment for me. I'm very happy with it.
Cons:
It'd be awesome to be able to segment by the organic and local pack as that piece of the interface can be a bit confusing. I wish we could pull backlink data into the reports, but I have been told this is on the way soon. The android app isn't very useful (but hey, they actually have one unlike the others) It's good for a quick look at movements, but generally you're better using the full site
Robust SEO platform that continues to rapidly develop roadmap features at a great value for cost.
Comments: Robust SEO technology available to me on a scheduled basis, immediate demand basis and an excellent cost value for the features of the platform. SE Ranking is one of the best at building new roadmap features as well.
Pros:
I love the ability to perform accurate SEO actions with ease. The UX and UI is phenomenal. The projects are organized within folders to keep all data and information relevant to the SEO project you are working on. They have all of the SEO features, snippet testing, keyword monitoring, traffic & analytics and way more. I have a weekly report sent to me each week showing the reports of my sites and my competitors.
Cons:
A couple of their tools require a percentage of a cent to run a query, this tends to be on large google queries that as an upcoming platform they have to charge for currently.
Flexible pricing allows for a low-cost keyword tracking and SEO suite
Comments: You won't have to spend hours sifting through your competitors' websites to find out what they're up to. You can also be notified if your competitors alter their policies. Search engine optimization trends are constantly changing, and this is a convenient method to stay up to date on them.
Pros:
There are various ways to tailor a monthly plan to suit your needs, including how many keywords you want to track and how often you want the positions of those keywords to be updated. The use of past SERP tracking is useful while working on SEO projects involving reputation management. For my keyword and backlink research, as well as competitive and organic traffic and paid traffic analyses, I was able to acquire adequate information with the domain analysis tool. SE Ranking is an all-in-one SEO tool that costs a fraction of the price of some of its competitors.
Cons:
There may be no backlinks, keywords, or traffic statistics for fresher websites, therefore SE Ranking may not be able to find them. Their database has a lot of space to expand and evolve when compared to market leaders such as Ahrefs and SEMrush. However, this may not be a fair comparison because they are more expensive.
Above average ranking and link tracking tool
Comments: An inexpensive tool for tracking ranks and links. If you are in the niche of needing to track both of these metrics in one tool, SE Ranking will provide a cost effective option.
Pros:
We used this tool to track a number of basic keywords across multiple sites, but also used the link track feature to record and track our inbound links. This feature is useful as it checks if links are still live and records the date of any changes, allowing you to see real-time stats on your link building efforts. The rank tracking is fairly standard and easy to use so no complaints there, although there isn't anything ground-breaking.
Cons:
The new updated interface is easy to use, but until then the UI was very clunky and not the easiest to navigate. The beta version that you can use for their new interface is a lot better though. Not too many complaints otherwise, it functions as you would expect.
Seo thank to se ranking
Comments: very good value for money, recommended
Pros:
It is very versatile in our customer follow-ups
Cons:
very good value for money, recommended yes
Great Value for Money
Comments: It's my very first time to use a premium SEO tool. I can say that I was amazed with SERanking's services and features. I really like the cleanliness and simpleness of the UI. The SEO audit tool is super useful and the reporting is rock solid! Although the rankings-check frequency of once in 3 days is good, however, I wish I had the daily frequency but overall I'm very satisfied.
Pros:
I wanted it for the keyword tracking and site analysis and so far I am very happy with the results. The keyword SERP position is very accurate. Also, they are one of the few whose database includes Google NG.
Cons:
Not necessarily a con of the product itself but of my current plan. I only get ranking updates every 3 days. Wished it was daily.
Affordable and great for tracking my keywords.
Comments: My overall experience using it is pretty nice. The rank tracker is solid and pricing is competetive.
Pros:
I mainly use SE Ranking to track my keywords. You can track up to 50 keywords on their lowest plan. They also offer a free 14-day trial at the moment so you can test the software before committing to subscribe. Setting up your first website is easy. Although you may want to add your keywords manually if you selected their lowest plan. I really love their rank tracking. It is fast and accurate. It also shows the search volume for each keyword that you want to track. Their lowest plan is affordable and more than enough for small websites. But do take note that you have to pay a full year for it.
Cons:
What I don't like about it is, you should pay a full year for their lowest plan. This may turn off beginners without a big budget for an SEO tool.
A user-friendly cloud-based SEO tool!
Comments: It is great and affordable as well!
Pros:
SE Ranking is a great tool for all your SEO needs. It has plenty of features to help your websites rank higher or maintain their rankings. They also offer a 14-day free trial without the need to input your credit card details. Creating your very first project is easy. They also have a video tutorial on how to make one. Their On-page SEO tool is on point and can help your pages to avoid optimization errors. The rank tracker is accurate and you can track different search engines.
Cons:
There are some additional fees if you want to use certain tools like the Backlink Explorer.
I use it to track our website's keywords and traffic.
Comments: SE Ranking is a great option specially for beginners and budget-conscious users.
Pros:
SE Ranking is an affordable software that has all the necessary seo tools. They are all inside the same platform so users do not have to buy separate tools. They also offer a free trial, which in fact, a good chance to try them out before subscribing. They have their own keyword suggestion tool which has a quite big database. Their Keyword Position Tracking Tool is accurate and they regularly send updates to my email. Lastly, their pricing is competitive and they are one of the cheapest in the market today.
Cons:
You have to pay an extra to use their Backlink Explorer and Keyword Grouping tool. But even with those extra charges, SE Ranking remains an affordable SEO tool.
Very Good All-One SEO Solution
Comments: SE Ranking has been very helpful in helping me find keywords to target in my articles and helping me find ways to make my website more SEO friendly.
Pros:
I rely on SE Ranking for most of my SEO needs. I use it to track backlinks, keywords I’m targeting, audit my website, and identify new keywords to target. It’s very good for all these uses.
Cons:
It would be helpful for SE Ranking to add more link quality metrics in their backlinks explorer to help users to determine whether a backlink is a source of negative SEO.
Great All-in-one seo and ranking solution
Pros:
The "online marketing plan" is an excellent addition, it gives you a guided step-by-step process for a new site or digging into an existing site for a new client. Reports are nice looking and can be custom branded to each client. Clear and easy to read tracking.
Cons:
The plan I currently use is limited to querying ranking results once per week. Upgrade options can be on the expensive side and do not add a lot of value for the money
