SUPER GREAT video. Subscribed. I'm an semi-amateur SEO specialist and looking and finding the best tools to use can be frustrating (especially with the big expensiveeeee ones.. ahrefs, semrush, etc.) So I've subscribed and looking forward for more videos! Especially one who to "link it all together". You know some people talk about the keyword search tools but not the content creation (especially now with GPT) or tracking, or migrating to GA4 (which was a hasssleee) or solving for example Google Search Console errors like not indexing and other etc etc etc. Hoping to find great content here! Again, subscribed and looking forward for more good content! (Great presentation btw)

I really appreciate your time to break down your rating. I am in the learning mode for business and im trying to start using good tools not costing me so much money as I am starting. Decisions Decisions 😅, thank you!!
Ahrefs should definitely be ninja. Since you're an affiliate of Semrush, this seems kinda biased. Also, Ahrefs video tutorials and youtube videos are more resourceful than any Semrush content.
Thanks for this great video. Very informative. Also, nice to know that I am not the only one who totally hates the new GA4. I thought I was just an idiot. It is so confusing and overwhelming. Ugh.
Hey Vishal, many of these tools offer free versions. You may just have to use more free tools to get the same effect as one "all-in-one" paid tool - Jess
One workaround is to use free trials for some of the mentioned tools and do as much research as possible during the trial period (you can trial Semrush for FREE using thankyouninjas.com)
The only reason why ahref ddnt get to ninja is because Ahref doest have any affiliate commission.. thats why creator always put semrush as if they are better tool than ahrefs. :)
Having used them all, Semrush is BY FAR the better tool. There have been periods where Ahrefs, Moz, etc were the top tool but Semrush's toolset is stronger than all of the others combined.
Keywords Everywhere. How is the pricing "confusing"? Seems quite clear on their site and affordable and it I'd think a pay as you go credit system is far better on the pocket than a flat rate monthly subscription. 🤷🏾♂️
Legendary content as usual. My search is over, SEM Rush it is! But too busy to do it now, will you SEM rush link in description still be valid next month?
The best tool is also the one we've used for the longest and would recommend to every business, agency, consultant, or side hustler whether we were sponsored or not. Semrush is, without a doubt, the best SEO suite of tools available and has been for *_years_* .
We've used BrightEdge on and off for half a decade. It's great for some things, not great for others. It really depends on the scale of work you're doing.
Really interesting list, but how about doing one for just free (or ***VERY*** low price) tools? I'm running a single person business in the health field not a big marketing company. There is no point in me spending thousands, or tens of thousands of dollars each year if I'm never going to make that back from the single site I run.
Bro AHREF vs all others, AHREF WON! 🏆 I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU WILL PUT A TOOL LIKE AHREF BELOW SEMRUSH AND OTHERS.. LOL anyway I know why.😊 it's a nice video, but you got AHREF ABSOLUTELY WRONG!
Similar web to avoid? Lol 🤣🤣 Is the number 1 solution in the world for market intelligence and business intelligence; you clearly don’t have a clue about what are u talking about.
Bring me the proof and I'll re-evaluate the list 👍 But, in my very long experience working with £1m+ businesses, it's incredibly lacking compared to many of the other options in this list - especially for market intelligence, which it significantly underpeforms compared to Semrush.

Websites and pricing change a lot in two years. I can't remember how it was set up then, but it was a correct assessment at the time. I'm delighted if it's better now though!
🥊Watch me judge Semrush vs Ahrefs vs SE Ranking 👉 ua-cam.com/video/iT8kM9eErgE/v-deo.html
Call us biased, but it's Semrush for us (give it a try if you don't believe us: thankyouninjas.com)

Agreed. And SEMRush's bots are such bandwidth hoggers, they are blocked by so many people
ture ｉam using semrush and plan to switch into ahref
😂😂
Lol
No, the credit system is horrible

Can you suggest any free tools as well for people who are just starting up.

Absolutely agree.
And really fun
Thanks Anatolii ❤
I thought it is Neal Patel's comment :)
The keyword research capabilities of SEO tools are invaluable for crafting social media content that drives engagement and growth.
Agreed
I add GA to my client sites, but outside deployment I haven't opened GA4 in over a year.

Do you mean how it's priced today or how it was priced at time of recording?
This was a lot of fun to do
Great video! What do you think about Crazy Egg? I've just started using it and I'm on the fence sometimes
Hi do you use Brightlocal?
Our SEO team do from time to time for Local SEO campaigns.
Thank you would you use their Citation builder for directories or would you recommend doing them manually?
What about SEO Powersuite? Btw, thx for the content, it's very useful.
Legendary content as usual. My search is over, SEM Rush it is! But too busy to do it now, will you SEM rush link in description still be valid next month?
It absolutely will!
It would be better if you show longer the final version of your comparison table at the end.
Next time 👍
Are there any good tools for comparing traffic between websites?
Yep! Semrush's Traffic Analysis tool lets you compare sites and their traffic/keyword coverage 🙂
You should do another video like this
I've contacted the site there & received no reply
Dang. Okay, ping us at hello@exposureninja.com and we'll sort something out
Totally agree on GA4, I don't know anyone who likes it.
PS I think Bing Webmaster Tools is much better that Google Search Console.
Strong Napster vibes… I totally understand
What about "outline Ninja"
That's one I'm not familar with but will consider for future videos
Can you review Raven Tools and Diib?
Maybe next time 👍
disappointed you didn't cover shineranker
Problem whit this review is that the BEST i the one who paid the infuelncer, youtuber, advertiser etc the BEST
The best tool is also the one we've used for the longest and would recommend to every business, agency, consultant, or side hustler whether we were sponsored or not. Semrush is, without a doubt, the best SEO suite of tools available and has been for *_years_* .
Any thoughts on BrightEdge?

GREAT suggestion, thank you
not sure if he telling best tool or marketing his own best affiliate tool
Give them all a try and let me know if you think my tier list matches yours 🙂
I didn’t see Spyfu on the list?
I tried to squeeze in as many as I could, but the video was already 20+ minutes long!
I love SpyFu
What should I use spyfu or serpstat
Thank you!
poor SEO Power Suite 😢
Great video
Thanks Kennedy
Bro AHREF vs all others, AHREF WON! 🏆 I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU WILL PUT A TOOL LIKE AHREF BELOW SEMRUSH AND OTHERS.. LOL anyway I know why.😊 it's a nice video, but you got AHREF ABSOLUTELY WRONG!
@@usa9621 its not about the power its possibly because Ahref has no affiliate program so no inccentive to put it at Ninja tier.
