"Surfer SEO is a game changer."
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

The amount of data and intelligence that Surfer SEO provides to users is insurmountable. While the Content Editor is the core piece of technology, the Content Planner, SERP analyzer and Keyword Research tools are just as valuable.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

I have to be honest here and say that there's really nothing about Surfer SEO that I dislike or think needs to be changed.

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

I started using the tool to optimize existing blogs instead of writing new ones. The results have been more than I expected. The amount of Google impressions and clicks have to my site has increased 500+ percent over the last 2 months.

"Un outil vraiment très pratique pour une parfaite optimisation SEO de vos contenus éditoriaux"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

Je dois dire que la plupart des outils est vraiment bien pensé et relativement facile d'utilisation. Le content editor est bien entendu au top pour rédiger tout en optimisant au maximum votre score SEO.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

Ce que je regrette chez urfer SEO, c'est que les crédits de "content editor" non utilisé sur un mois ne se reportent pas sur le mois suivant, c'est un peu dommage puisqu'ils ont été payés, ils devraient être maintenus sur le mois suivant. Ce que je conseillerai aussi à l'équipe Surfer c'est de développer deux outils au plus vite : - Un outil de génération de leads avec un audit SEO + widget d'intégration au site internet de l'agence web (comme le fait SemRush) - Un outil pour faciliter le chiffrage client (devis) qui permettrait, comme dans le content editor, d'avoir le nombre de mots, paragraphes, titres et images nécessaires pour une requête.

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

Surfer SEO m'a permis d'améliorer les positions dans les SERPs sur différents mots clés. Il m'a permis aussi de rédigerd e nouveaux contenus pour mes clients totalement optimisés SEO.

"Gamechanger for writing SEO content that ranks!"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

I love how easy it is to use and the video support! One of my favorite features is the content editor, where I see my real-time score against SERP competitors. Pair this up with Jasper, and it is a winning combination!

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

Customer support is lacking for the chat. A 4 day wait time is excess and hinders my progress when I need a quick answer for my question. It costs me a lot of time waiting.

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

Surfer helps me write relevant content that will help rank with Google, especially against competitive keywords with high domain authority sites. The content I write will not only be more visible from an organic POV but will help my target audience get the information they are seeking. So it is a win-win!

It is a genuinely helpful SEO tool that is easy for any user to pick up quickly and start making quality optimisations to their content.

It could have more credit inclusions in the standard plan, but that's about the only con I can come up with so far.

"Best SEO Tool I have seen so far!"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

I think by far the most useful feature is the content editor. It comes with a simple dashboard that allows you to see everything you need to do to outperform your competitors for a given keyword or tags. All I need is to fire up Surfer and tweak my content till it hits a good score. I also found the SERP Analyzer useful to identify any relationship between position in search results and on-page factors.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

To be honest, I haven't found anything I dislike regarding the features. I wouldn't mind more content editors on the basic plan from the current 10 to 15 or 20. That would be great for a small proprietor that isn't ready or have the capacity to transition to the Pro plan.

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

On-page SEO: All the pages I have used Surfer on have enjoyed a significant bump in search rankings. Page audit: To optimize my existing pages based on data from top-performing pages.

"Improve your Content on Google Search Rank"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

The guidelines to improve our content articles or blog post. Surfer has structure to be followed by writer in order to have best content : word counts, total paragraph, image to number of headlines.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

When we should following large number of word counts, let say 5K-6K words. But we can adjust in the setting to decreasing the number of word counts. I don't like the credit system, makes them expensive.

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

Help us to have better content on our website, so our rank on any search engine will increase, at the end, the traffic to our website increase. Help any business when a lot of traffic comes to our websites.

"Great tool for SEO"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

The tool is very helpful. It made writing good optimised content so much easier. We also very like to content planer tool to find new very valuable keywords. Great software!

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

It would be nice if the tool could have the "NLP" enabled even in the cheapest plan. About 10 credits is ok for small business like us but i do not understand why the tool will be less optimized without the NLP.

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

Writing seo content. Writing product descriptions. Finding inspiration for blog posts. Finding new keywords for ecommerce shop. Finding problems with existing content.

"5 STAR REVIEW FOR SURFER- COOL EASY SEO SOFTWARE!"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

I love how easy it is to use Surfer! It's really easy to get started without having to dig through tons of help files or run into any bugs. The interface is also really intuitive, which makes it really easy to figure out how everything works. This makes it a great tool for newbies who are just getting started with SEO.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

It's addictive! As soon as you get started, it's easy to want to use the tool again and again. It would be nice if there was a way to set up an auto schedule for writing new articles so that it doesn't totally take over your life!

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

I've been able to write more articles than ever before. And I can provide proof to my clients that the articles have been optimized by sharing a screen shot of the power meter.

"This and Jarvis are all you need if you're a 1 man content show"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

What I like about Surfer is that it pretty much tells you how to write an article that will outrank the top 10 on Google. It tells you what words the article needs to contain, so it's just a matter of creating content that contains those words. Sounds simple but that's really all there is to it. It also tells you how many headings, images, etc it needs.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

Not much honestly. There is a Jarvis integration, but I kind of wish there was some way for Jarvis to use the list of keywords given by Surfer. As it is now it will write what it thinks sounds good, but I need it to use certain keywords. Now I have to go back and do a manual edit in order to get the score high enough. Still faster than writing everything by hand.

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

I have been into online marketing for a while but completely ignored SEO until about two months ago. SEO always seemed like this impossible task where I was competing with the entire world, but after learning about it and ranking some pages I've realized that most people out there doing SEO are idiots and you can rank for a lot of kws without being an expert on the topic. I've cranked out almost 45 articles with surfer in less than 2 months.

I love that SurferSEO does the thinking for you. You do not have to think about how many keywords you should add. You just type your keyword and they help you transform your piece into highly-optimized content.

Nothing to mention here. I think that it is a fantastic product and I recommend it to anyone who wants to optimize their content in an easy and effective manner.

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

I am using the software to optimize landing pages and blog posts for my clients in order to make sure they have the right keywords and keyword density. It is helping me achieve great results.

"Best SEO optimization tool I've used"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

I love the content editor. It has so many features to help optimize the content of my articles. I also found it to be super easy to use and navigate. I like that it highlights the words and lets me choose my competitors.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

I don't like the keyword difficulty score is not the same as other SEO tools. It is a bit confusing on what the difficulty is for certain words that I use in my articles.

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

I am solving the problem of writing content that is SEO optimized. I have realized that I use certain words too much and should focus on making my content more valuable first.

"Very usefull tool for me! It really helps me to increase my website traffic!"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

SurferSEO is very easy to use. I like that I can simply create content editor and send to my writers and let them do their work. It's also nice for writers who even never used it before as they can understand everything from first sight.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

I like everything. Maybe I'd like to see some more features for images editing etc. The rest of the thing is works excellent, so I can't even find anything to complain about!

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

I'm working in SEO company. We write articles and optimize existing pages content. So Surfer SEO appears a beneficial tool as I can create a content editor, add some headings, images and requirements and send a link to the writer! Then, when I receive the result, I can immediately see if the article is high quality or not.

"Great value for analyzing on-page and providing objective scores"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

I have tried several on-page SEO tools, including POP, MarketMuse, Frase, Copywritely. Currently I find that Surfer provides the best value in terms of the amount of data and types of analysis you can do under one subscription. I personally use Surfer mainly for optimizing articles (Audit) and then fine-tune using Surfer's recommendations, most notably contextual terms (Prominent Terms) augmented with the NLP feature.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

I can see the pricing being a bit high if you want to run a large number of page audits or keyword searches, as compared to an Ahrefs for keyword research or a POP for on-page analysis (unlimited runs plan is cheaper than Surfer). Other than that, there is a learning curve to understand how Surfer interprets search results to present their data/analysis but they have frequent webinars to help onboard.

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

Main problem is: creating an objective framework/on-page score to evaluate my blog posts / articles. I used a mix of Surfer plus MarketMuse/Frase to optimize existing posts. Main benefit is: Surfer provides a ton of contextual terms (usually 200-300 single words, 100 or so phrases) that may be relevant to a topic/keyword, as well as general recommendations on word count, H1-H6's, page speed, etc.

"Surfer SEO And Why You NEED It In Your Life"
What do you like best about Surfer SEO?

I love how the tool is so intuitive to use. It integrates with Jarvis, so I can see how the content ranks as I write it. They've even done a fantastic job of explaining how they arrived at the score for the content.

What do you dislike about Surfer SEO?

I wish I could create more articles with my plan, but I understand that every time I use the service it has a cost for them, so I think that the pricing and value is very reasonable—especially considering the results!

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

I'm using Surfer to integrate with Jarvis and write better content for my websites. The content has proven to rank better, as I'm starting to get more inquiries from organic search results.
