Market Samurai SEO Magic
So, a friend of mine told me to try out Market Samurai, and gave me the link: http://www.marketsamurai.com/
Well, let me tell you, it’s a very powerful SEO tool, indeed. You can try it free for 40 days. After that it’s $149, which is pretty reasonable, and I’ll tell you why…
You can do some pretty intensive keyword research, which is cool, but really not better than SEOBook.com, at least in my opinion. SEOBook is free, so that’s not what would attract me at all.
But you get some pretty interesting and dynamic stats on your competition. I liked this very much, but it put me in mind of another program I have — WebCEO. But that cost me like $249 for the full version. Yet, it has reporting capability, so if you have SEO clients, that’s pretty cool, and I’ve used it quite a lot.
What Market Samurai has that WebCEO doesn’t is an ability to find content from all over the Web that includes your keyword. I searched for “how to blog,” a pretty generic term, not long-tail at all, but just messing with this software, right? So, it comes back with 10 Google blog articles, 9 Technorati items, 10 Videos on Google, 10 on Scribd, and 50 on Yahoo Answers, among other sites.
Now, this is cool. I can go and comment on the blogs that are worth looking at because Marketing Samurai also gives me the down and dirty SEO — page rank, age, backlinks and more. Very, very cool. I’m liking this more and more, right?
So, then I got to the “Promotion” tab and I can find backlinks! It checks Web 2.0 sites, Google sites, and even forums, and it analyzes them, as well. I don’t have to waste my time going to pages that don’t have much clout, and you know how important backlinks are to SEO, right? Very cool.
But in the future, Market Samurai will allow you to publish articles using the software, show you how to monetize your keywords, and even help with AdWords campaigns.
I’m liking it a LOT, and think that when my 40 day trial is up, I’ll be $149 poorer, but a whole lot richer!
