Clearscope Reviews: 4.9/5 — Highly Rated

Clearscope is super easy and intuitive to use. The platform is simple and effective, and everyone on my team picked up how to use it quickly. Bernard has also given us tons of 1:1 help, and has been a huge support as I build out my team. Using Clearscope makes creating content easy.

Nothing so far, the product is great. I'm excited to see what else Clearscope develops.

We are launching a consumer content program and want to write in-depth and detailed articles that we hope to start ranking on Google for. With Clearscope, we are able really target our articles and make sure that our content is top of the line.

Clearscope is our secret weapon for getting our content to rank in search engines. The tool is easy to use and extremely effective for bringing exceptional content to the next tier.

There aren't many negative things to say about this software. The only downside that comes to mind is pricing (it's expensive, yet extremely valuable).

We use this tool as the final editorial step to every article that we publish to ensure that our content has the semantic relevance to rank at the top of Google.

Intuitive right out of the box. From running reports to modifying your content, it's really simple to use and the insights are easy to put into action. I've seen other tools attempt this type of analysis before, but it's either too convoluted or sloppily made. Clearscope has it dialed in. Definitely a tool you want in your SEO arsenal.

It's still a relatively new software, so obviously there is still more to build. The silver lining to this is that the team at Clearscope is very responsive and very open to feedback, so whenever I've requested something or reported a bug, they've responded and addressed the concern right away.

Optimizing content by including more relevant and topic keywords. The benefit has been a substantial lift in traffic to high value landing pages and blog articles.

Easy to use for optimizing old and new content. Bernard was extremely helpful throughout the on-boarding process and went above and beyond to make sure I could implement the tool successfully to see results.

No cons. It'll be interesting to see what other features they add!

Clearscope is an extremely effective tool that helps me speed up the writing process and ensures I include relevant and related keywords from the start to produce better content. As a result, it helps the editors I work with save time since I've already used Clearscope to optimize the content before submitting. It's also allowed me to improve existing content on the sites I manage. I've been able to save time and feel more confident that the content I'm producing is highly relevant and optimized for search engines.

SEO driven content creation - Clearscope allowed me to make this turnkey and easy for the writers to follow. Additionally, it provides needed marketplace intelligence. Existing content optimization - saves time and improved ranking/traffic.

I love how Clearscope reverse engineers what's already ranking on Google for any given keyword, then shows all the relevant terms I need to include to create a search-engine friendly article. Before, I used to type a keyword into Google, eyeball the results, then make an educated guess about what kind of content would be relevant and important to write about. I don't do that anymore because I use Clearscope. This saves me time and energy, and even better, it's more accurate than what I used to do. The freelance writers I work with to create articles love Clearscope too. One of them even called it "cheat codes" for creating relevant content. That's a good way to put it.

I think they could add a helpful feature to let you know when your content went down a grade, so you can make updates to keep your stuff relevant. That's minor though. The core functionality is solid and I couldn't be happier.

I use Clearscope to create content that ranks. I added the tool into the writing process for our internal team and freelance writers to make sure we know which relevant terms to include from the beginning. We've used Clearscope when creating content from scratch, and also to rewrite existing content that didn't have a good optimization score. We've seen major gains in both. I also use their keyword research tool in my planning/strategy phase so that's been helpful.

Clearscope has made it really easy for us to work with writers who have less SEO familiarity. We can give them a clearscope report, our own internal SEO guidelines, and they can reliably create content that's been ranking well. For personal use, it's also been great for improving old content to get it ranked higher.

The ratio of cost to the number of reports you get feels high. I also feel like it could pull in more relevant related terms sometimes, especially by working in related keywords to the suggested terms results.

Creating SEO focused content for our agency clients. We've been gettng really consistent positive results, as much as doubling clients' search traffic in the course of three months.

Clearscope's easy-to-use interface turns any employee into a keyword research expert. The founder of the company, Bernard, is also amazing. He has deep SEO knowledge and is always willing to share his insights.

At this time, there is nothing that I dislike about Clearscope.

We publish a large amount of content every month. It would be impossible for us to manually do keyword research for every piece we publish. Clearscope helps us automate this process.

Provides directional content recommendations that is both easy to follow and explain to stake holders

As an agency, we'd like to take advantage of the platform's built in editor by having it whitelabeled for our clients to use, or have the ability to export PDF reports that contain all the data found in their existing dashboard.

Clearscope helps save us a tonne of time when forming content recommendations based on our target keywords.

Clearscope's Optimization feature not only virtually stacks you up against the competition, but also highlights ways to improve before your content goes live. This process has fit seamlessly into our editorial practice and now everyone on our team uses it to create educated, informed, and unique content.

During Optimization, it can pull in terms that are not relevant to the content at hand and can reflect what's trending in the news cycle that week. This, of course, is not a make-or-break deal.

I am increasing our SEO ranking and traffic with Clearscope and the benefits are endless. Not only are my writers more in-tune with the current conversations in the food world using Clearscope, but we're able to spin out content that ranks at lightning speed thanks to our AMP use.

Very easy to use. Whenever we're creating a cornerstone piece of content and need to make sure we have our SEO on-point, then Clearscope is a must use for our team. Gives great insights that are very actionable. We consistently get high page 1 rankings for our targeted keywords. I don't think it's an accident we went from 70 #1 ranks to 140 so quickly.

Nothing really, great product that we use regularly.

Helped us optimize our content marketing and SEO strategy

I like the methodology/approach to how they identify content opportunities and how the tool parses information to tell you what type of content to create, what keywords you need to include and how long your content needs to be.

I don't have anything bad to say about the tool other than some small usability/navigation things - but absolutely nothing major. The tool is easy to use and understand.

One of our biggest challenges was in trying to figure out what content we should be writing for our blog and product pages. I've looked at a lot of tools and couldn't find one that would help us understand the types of content and what content we should create.

What I most like about Clearscope is that it is very user friendly and easy to navigate.

What I dislike about Clearscope is that it can be a bit overwhelming for people unfamiliar with SEO.

Clearscopes makes it very easy to see how our content is ranking and what keywords are performing better so we can help more people by getting them to our site.

It's very straightforward in terms of what you get and can incorporate for content, as well as conducting comparative research as you create content.

For niche content, the suggested keywords can be a bit removed from the actual subject matter.

It provides direct suggestions for included semantics that are helpful to provide to non-SEO content writers.

I like that Clearscope let's you write the content and review the SEO at the same time. Also, I like that you can search the best articles on the topic and have an easier way and more accurate to find articles.

I don't like that sometimes the articles suggested extension feels to much. It's sometimes because other articles use other topics and that is why they are so extense.

Clearscope helped us by having a better SEO in our content and thus reaching our targets. It helped us build traffic on our website and publish better articles.

I love that it's straightforward with which keywords to include and also includes which pages are ranking well for the topic already. I've explored some other tools and they weren't as straightforward as Clearscope is.

Overall I love the tool, but itself it is very expensive and more only a feasible cost for an agency and not so much for small businesses.

It's helping me to produce content that ranks well on Google, which is helpful for my position as a content editor. The simplicity of it goes a long way.

nice NLP terms, and good UX overall, can be optimised for sure

UI should be improved along with the output quality

keywords research and generation of high quality blogs

As a freelance SEO writer, I need best in class tools for writing for my clients and I have used a lot of them, including Market Muse. I used to pay for MM for an entire year and eventually just found it was way, way too expensive for my needs as a solopreneur. Enter Clearscope. I discovered it recently through a client and have loved working with it- it's easy, intuitive, and pulls one of the hardest things off my plate- deciding complementary keywords. I like that it grades my piece as I go, and I write in there before moving over to Google Docs to turn in.

The cost is a little high for a solopreneur, but it's still far more affordable than something like MarketMuse. It probably makes a ton of sense for an agency, however! I pay for it because I have several premium clients and it's worth it.

Benefits: faster writing and SEO research. I'm writing best in class articles for my clients with thorough coverage of the topics they care about.

Clearscope's Google Docs integration is currently in beta but is extremely helpful. I love that it lets me input different reports to analyze side-by-side with my written copy.

The one thing that would make Clearscope perfect is if they would support Wordpress integration. Being able to interact with Clearscope and Wordpress the way I can with their Google Docs beta would save me a great deal of time.

Clearscope has been instrumental in boosting SEO and traffic to many of our websites. Going through old content and updating it with new keywords and phrases has skyrocketed our sites to the first pages of many Google searches!

The Clearscope dashboards for keyword search and content optimization are very simple to use, even for beginners. You are up and running in no time. The information we collect from Clearscope helps us to produce rich content for our readers.

I've not encountered a feature I dislike. We were up and running with Clearscope very quickly. Support questions continue to be answered quickly and thoroughly.

We began using Clearscope to increase organic search traffic. The results are extraordinary. Site traffic has increased dramatically and we now use Clearscope as our primary tool for developing our editorial calendar.

We use and are happy with SEMrush for everyday content requirements but the clearscope tool provides just a bit more and makes it easier to write content. For the most important pages for super competitive terms, this slight advantage means everything which is why I'm getting hooked on this tool.

Its quite an expensive tool when you consider it's content only. As I mentioned, SEMrush offers content elements but gaining an edge makes this tool page itself off.

Creating the perfect copy to rank for the most competitive terms on Google. It also has a keyword tool that gives keyword data which is a lot faster than Google Ads

Simple, no fluff, yet effective! I would put 10 but there is space for month features, so I am keeping it for later.

I don't really dislike something, I am in love with Clearscope, the team behind and its impact in our clients and our business.

We have minimized the time we need to build and implement a content strategy both for ourselves and our team. That gives us clear ROI as it reduces the man-hours needed. And that's the reason I am paying such a large amount in Clearscope every month..clear ROI.

The tool is constantly updated with new SEO-oriented features that are based on client feedback. It is very intuitive and fast, optimizing content never was so fun and easy.

The pricing structure may deter some users at first, but the Clearscope team is always there to prove that their tool is worth the price (and isn't THAT expensive in the long run)

Most of our clients had content-related problems and we spent countless hours scraping the web to look for insights. Clearscope helped us to speed up the whole process, making my team work with their brains and letting the robots do the heavy lifting.

We like it best to create content brief fast. It easily brought down the time it took us to create briefs by 70-80%. We also use it to identify search intent.

Not much, really. The only shortfall I noticed is that the space to 'create report', the most important area in CL, looks like a search bar. So, if I wanted to search for older reports, I'd have accidentally typed it out into this tab and would have lost a credit. It's just a UX thing, and once you get used to using CL, it'll be okay. I hope it soon brings in a good plagiarism feature.

Content creation at scale. CL allows me to create SEO-optimized content at a faster pace.

There are a lot of improvement points like integration AI, SERP analysis etc.

I dont really like their UI interface they should improvise on that

Long form SEO optimization

Clearscope offers a straightforward and easy to use UI for beginners looking to conduct content analysis. However, competitors like Usetopic are developing better tools that do the job better.

They don't show enough of the competitions content that is outranking yours and I feel like they can improve there.

Problems being solved with clearscope are SEO team is reviewing content before publishing it. We make recommendations to our writers based on the tool.

The keywordgenerator works well and shows us in the reports exactly where we have used the suggested keywords and where we should make improvements. I can use it in an easy way to improve our content and improve the search engine ranking.

I think that the menu could be built a bit easier. The dashboard is good, but the menu is a bit confusing because many reports are split up into separate sections.

I can improve our ranking by using the suggested keywords and adjusting the meta data and header data in the html code. By constantly improving the content and updating the date, we are better found by search engines.

It's hard to miss the mark with SEO writing when using this tool. You have a list of relevant terms to include and your score updates as you write. It's also useful to see how your article compares to what else is ranking for that same keyword. You have text formatting options and a copy or edit mode. More or less the essentials.

If your reading level is higher than recommended, good luck finding which sentences are the culprits. It just says it's too complex, and leaves you to change word for word. Also, the relevant keywords aren't always that relevant, depending on the angle you're taking for your article.

it guides your articles so that they rank higher on Google. This is the go-to tool for many of my clients who provide high-ranking content to other companies. So far, the main benefit is the reassurance that the writing makes the cut.
