"Awesome Marketing Research Tool"
What do you like best about Semrush?

Semrush is relatively inexpensive for a powerhouse marketing research tool. I started a subscription before building and launching a paid ad campaign, and this incredible tool enabled me to do all the research and optimization I needed to do for a successful launch.

What do you dislike about Semrush?

So far, I haven't found much to dislike. Like other tools of this caliber, Semrush is SO robust that it could be daunting/overwhelming at first. But being disciplined about spending just a little time each day to learn the features you actually need pays off quickly. After some initial setup and playing around, I was able to generate relevant reports right away to establish a baseline from which I could build my campaign.

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

Subscribing to a tool like Semrush before launching a paid ad campaign is essential. To optimize such a campaign and make sure you're not throwing your money away, you have to do your research, and Semrush helps automate that process and make it more manageable. The insights are incredible.

The data is accurate and SEMrush has live support I can actually call and they answer right away. They're so knowledgeable and help me navigate the more advanced features. Since I've been using SEMrush I was able to fix so many errors, clean up my backlink profile, and so much more that I've improved our overall rankings in a very competitive industry of Mortgage CRM Software (Mortgage Brokers and Loan Officers) is #1 in SEO tools and I highly recommend the paid version.

"Great insight ino what is working well for your site."
What do you like best about Semrush?

I like that they are able to show you what words are performing well and which ones aren't. It allows you to choose which keywords to focus on as you write articles and further expand your site. They also monitor your site for any errors which gives you the ability to get things fixed before they become a problem.

What do you dislike about Semrush?

I use the free service so it is obviously limited in what it can do, however, I feel like based on what I receive, it would be hard to justify using the paid service.

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

I can see how certain keywords are performing which allows me to focus on building them up even stronger, or if they aren't doing well I can focus on other keywords that may perform better.

"Don't Tell Your Competitors"
What do you like best about Semrush?

SEMRush has been a siginifcant tool in helping us successfully increase our search engine rankings. We've been able to identify specific keywords for product pages, our blog and also for PPC advertising. It's certainly a tool I wouldn't want our competitors to know we are using.

What do you dislike about Semrush?

I wish they had a mini onboarding "how to" series. The first call with our rep was great, but it was very overwhelming at first and we couldn't always remember where something was.

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

We've been able to hone in on keywords for product pages and our blog. We've also been able to identify keywords for our PPC campaigns as well as track the ones that our competition is using.
