The only thing that I wish was different in Surfer is if the Auditor allowed you to use the content editor inside of it.

"New to the platform but things are looking very promising"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

UI looks great. Lots of work and thought has been put into how users will the tool. Looks very intuitive and easy to get around. Looking forward to getting into the content editor and page analytics

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

only thing would be that due to their constant UI updates and tweaks any video tutorials are often significantly out of date. This is the situation with both 3rd party youtube tutorials and Surfers own academy tutorials

What problems is Surfer SEO solving and how is that benefiting you?

It gives me the ability to create a great brief for my writers and to allows me to hand-pick the competition relevant to the query. The recommended keywords, word count and image count make my life so much easier. Before all these things were manual work and takes ages but now that entire process is automated thanks to SurferSEO

"Making On-Page SEO Fun"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

Surfer SEO makes the process of creating on-page SEO fun and enjoyable. From suggesting terms present in the highest performing webpages to giving you a full audit and score on your own site, Surfer SEO works intuitively to help you understand and optimize your webpages. Trying to increase your score adds a "game" dimension to the on-page SEO process, making an otherwise tedious task interesting.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

I wish it were easier to exclude your own website and certain terms from Surfer's SEO terms suggestions. This would make it easier to remove terminology and references to products that aren't in your company's purview.

What problems is Surfer SEO solving and how is that benefiting you?

A lot of people are unsure where to begin when working on optimizing a page for SEO. Surfer makes it easier by providing suggestions and automating the less intuitive aspects of the process.

"Surfer makes SEO feel like a game"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

I've been in and out of blogging for as long as I can remember. SEO has always felt like something that shouldn't be as hard as it is. I find myself falling off of blogging the more I dive down the SEO rabbit hole. SEO Surfer has changed that for me. It's pretty quick and easy to use, and the way the integrated content editor works makes it feel like a game to me. I like writing my content, and finding new and unique ways to get the keyword to turn green in SEO Surfer. My content has far more keywords used in a productive manner now. Previously, I got tired of adding the keywords I found because I had some pretty solid doubt in what I was doing. This product has given me some of that confidence back.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

I wish the content planner refreshed itself when you had your domain selected. It would give much smoother experience. The biggest thing I don't like is a design choice by the SEO Surfer and I understand it. They want you to focus on their Content Planner and Content Editor. They have SERP and Keyword analysis tools but they aren't as easy to use. Those tools can be found in a myriad of other places, and aren't really where surfer shines. You can tell they focused their efforts so they wouldn't be competing in an already full competitive market.

What problems is Surfer SEO solving and how is that benefiting you?

Surfer has given me back the fun of writing. I am focusing more on my writing, then coming back and gamifying what I do by trying to hit their keyword list. It's taken what used to be a heavy lift for me, and made it light. I'm now getting much higher quality articles produced, and they have a higher content score making me feel confident in their rankings.

"Marvelous SEO Tool"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

Surfer gives us an edge over the competition by providing visibility on the content structure, volume and NLPs. to rank higher in SERP. Without Surfer, it is like being blind with no guidance. Surfer is also useful to build internal links which is very important as well.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

In the Audit section, Surfer doesn't take into consideration the existing backlinks of the audited URL. It will be great if there is a feature to analyze backlinks

What problems is Surfer SEO solving and how is that benefiting you?

SEO ranking in Search Engines. Content Analysis vs the competition.

"Good tool if you have a Team that is not an expert in SEO writing"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

Easy to use for you and for your team as well as user friendly (very intuitive).

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

I like everything, but if I need to say something, maybe the price. If you start the business with a small budget maybe it's a problem.

What problems is Surfer SEO solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have a team of a few writers that are not SEO experts. So SurferSEO is helping them to create good content as well as is saving me time correcting their content and checking if it's SEO optimized.

"Excellent Tool to Create Your Optimised Contents"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

When it comes to SEO, there is no shortage of tools and analytics. However, none are perfect nor can do everything for you when creating content that ranks well in search engine results pages. One tool I would recommend trying out though is SEOSurfer. This software does an excellent job at analyzing keywords from a variety of sources like Google Analytics and social media channels so they're easily accessible without having to enter them into each individual source manually or spend hours on research ourselves. Its interface could use some work but most importantly if we want our posts visible/found then this may be worth checking out! I think that the SEO Surfer app is a good way to do content marketing. You can share the Content Editor with other people and give them instructions on how to write an article if they are remote writers.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

Some of the suggestions on terms and topics can be improved. You can put it in the "IGNORE" section so it will never come up again.

What problems is Surfer SEO solving and how is that benefiting you?

The biggest help I have got is to prepare a well-optimized article and all the requirements that are required to help me rank in Google. It has all these features. And already many of my keywords are ranking in Google within days of Publishing.

"Horrible experience from beginning to end"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

This system is built for noobies who only want basic articles.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

Not for people who don't need research-based, in-depth articles.

What problems is Surfer SEO solving and how is that benefiting you?

Didn't solve anything, and the customer service is horrible; actually its non-existent. We've emailed 3 times to their general support line for assistance and even after we paid, we still can't get help.
