"Time-Saving and Brand-Building Content Marketing Software"
What do you like best about MarketMuse?

It's a fast, one-of-a-kind solution. It's like no other content strategy out there. It's about so much more than keywords—it's an amazing blend of ingenuity and AI.

What do you dislike about MarketMuse?

The learning curve—it's unique, but you have to give it time. At first, it's not the same cookie-cutter content strategy, and it can take time to trust the process.

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

The software enables us to create high-volume, high-quality content for a variety of clients at scale.

"These tools are incredible"
What do you like best about MarketMuse?

I love their content briefs. Having a very strong brief to hand to my writers makes them 4x more efficient and their content comes back with all of the major contextual and semantic keywords, exactly how we needed to target them.

What do you dislike about MarketMuse?

The team has done a great job helping you through the process of learning the tool, but because I've never seen anything this robust before, it took me a little bit to figure out where everything was and how to get the most out of the tool. Once you get the hang of it though, it's great.

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

Our content strategy was radically accelerated and strengthened. Over the past year of using it, we've seen our traffic grow steadily and consistently, and each new article we put up succeeds right out of the gate. MarketMuse has taken all the guesswork out of content creation.

"Huge Time Saver + one-of-a-kind Content Strategy Software"
What do you like best about MarketMuse?

I like how MarketMuse isn't just a content optimizer based on a single target keyword. Tools in that category can be useful, but they don't fall inline with how Google serves up websites / content based on search intent. Continually planning and adjusting a content strategy month to month is a very time consuming process, but it needs to be done. MarketMuse saves a ton of time by allowing you to look at a high level strategy (what topical areas am I lacking, which ones do I excel at?) while also allowing you to optimize single pieces of content that fall into your overall strategy. The dashboard view is my favorite part of the software because it makes all of the data more digestible.

What do you dislike about MarketMuse?

It' s more on the expensive side compared to other tools, but they are one of the few platforms in the content strategy space that isn't just another copycat. The price won't be an issue if you don't have software sprawl across your organization. MarketMuse can easily replace several tools in your stack right now (depending on how you plan content), and is a huge value add for the price.

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

Less time spent reviewing the content strategy (major plus), better views of our topical strengths on our current content base, and a deeper analysis of what competing sites are doubling down on (or not).

"Magic isn't real but MarketMuse is!"
What do you like best about MarketMuse?

I run an ecom portfolio and ecom is notoriously hard to write a lot of varied blog content for. MarketMuse helped us uncover golden nuggets of opportunity to write content that has helped move our blog to 10% of traffic. This has helped our topical authority for SEO, increased rankings and moved the overall organic search revenue in excess of the cost.

What do you dislike about MarketMuse?

No real dislikes. It really pays for itself.

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

It is difficult to find regular topics for an ecommerce business.

"Amazing Secret Content Tool of the Best Websites"
What do you like best about MarketMuse?

What would your website look like if you could sit down with the execs at Google? Marketmuse helps us figure out, what people are talking about, what to cover in our content and then how to ensure that we deliver the best content possible. A recent feature recommends the content the will best benefit our site and how to improve existing content. This means our customers have the best experience possible. If you're looking to go for the best and are comfortable with the price, MarketMuse is the software and has the team to make sure you get it right.

What do you dislike about MarketMuse?

As with all enterprise software, it isn't inexpensive.... it's the buy it once philosophy of paying more but getting what you need. Creating content takes time, money and care.... that's inherent in all content marketing.

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

Ensuring all content meets the end needs of the customer, reviewing writers, improving SEO presence.

"Very powerful and user-friendly"
What do you like best about MarketMuse?

I like the UX of the tool. It provides so much powerful data and insights on our content while being very easy to navigate. The onboarding is easy and intuitive. We didn't waste our writers' time with training, which usually is a pain with other SEO software.

What do you dislike about MarketMuse?

I wish it was a bit faster, although I understand that this is not an easy task given the amount of data they need to constantly process.

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

Improving our organic search in a very straight forward and intuitive way.

"Great Platform for Content Strategy and Optimization"
What do you like best about MarketMuse?

MarketMuse is 'the' platform for content strategy and optimization. We've been using MarketMuse for over half a decade and they've had nothing but great support and a great platform to work with that's produced serious results for our clients.

What do you dislike about MarketMuse?

The only challenge you may have with MarketMuse is understanding the overall content strategy. It can be a steep learning curve, especially for beginners. If you're serious about content and being the best at your craft, then you'll need to commit time to learning the platform and advanced content marketing strategies.

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

We used the MarketMuse platform to build a gap analysis and then to optimize both new and existing content. The benfits of having a platform that aggregates data is you're not just guessing what keywords or topics to write on, but rather, you know exactly here the sweet spot it. We've seen huge SEO gains from using MarketMuse. It's a very powerful tool.
