Hey IndieHackers,
I'm looking for an affordable SEO tool to use for my new project LaunchPedia. It is a directory for product launches.
Since it is a content-based website, looking for an SEO tool that will have all these features π
Any suggestions you have?
It'll be really hard to find something really useful in this budget. Ahrefs has everything you need but the price starts at $100 a month. It also has some free features.
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking now. Will see Ahrefs free tools and try them
Hi, you should give https://seodity.com a try. It is something we're working on for a few years now :D
Sure will check it out and let you know π€
Hii, the best tools I can suggest you is Semrush for Keyword research and website analysis. Spyfu for Competitor analysis.
I used semrush some time back, but it is our of my budget right now. Will check spyfu. Thanks for sharing π€
Try ubersuggest.com and askthepublic.com both are owned by Neil Patel, and they are easy to use, and free.
Semrush for keyword research.
Ahrefs for competitor analysis.
Deepcrawl for website analysis.
Haven't heard about Deepcrawl previously, thanks for sharing buddy, Will check it out π€
Just came across this the other day on PH...
Free Online SEO Tools: https://techcopes.com/?ref=producthunt
Thanks for sharing this Micky, Will check it out π€
For this budget, I think it's a good option.
Which one?
There's a lot here, and I hate to be "that guy" who promotes his own tool, but I've built www.centori.io to provide a simple (and affordable) solution for finding keywords, tracking your performance and traffic, and analyzing competitors all in one place... plus we also have a Slack community and run monthly group calls (hopping onto a session now to discuss ranking factors with our customers).
If you find you're stumped by an SEO tool and not sure what to do with it, we provide the coaching and access to expertise needed to get you out of a rut :)
There is no wrong in promoting your tools man!! This looks good, will check it out and let you know.
Super!
If you want to go with a low budget, I would go for the free versions of several search tools. Most of them have a free version and combining a few of them would be the best.
I think the best by far is ahref but the price is consistent with what they offer. For keyword research https://neilpatel.com/nl/ubersuggest/ is a good one. However, keep in mind that I didn't perform SEO for several years so other might be improved since.
However, one thing I would keep in mind is the fact that SEO is a long and painful process without guaranteed results. Premature SEO means it keeps you from doing other tasks, for some delayed results that might(or might not) come after months. In the end I would not allocate much time to SEO alone, but I would use the knowledge and information I would acquire to drive the product to be more SEO driven but primarily user driven. I would say on longer time frame a user driven branded product wins big in seo because users are going to search for it. On shorter time frame if you spend time to optimize for seo alone might end up optimizing for some algos that google is going to change in 3 months.
One last thing, before seo it's better to have quality content, that should be written for humans not search engines(blogs, tutorials in your niche, ...). Then you try to seoptimize that one, gain links, without expecting immediate results.
Thanks man, will check it out
I have been using Ahrefs free version with Google Search Console and Google Analytics. (For ahrefs, $100 without knowing much I thought would be an overkill for me). Juggling between them to draw a general picture of where you rank and how your changes are affecting your site can be a bit of a hassle at first but you do learn a good deal of how
they all tie together. Following the periodic reports emails with recommended updates and fixes etc. has been of great help to understand SEO for me. I'm sure when I go to the paid version, it will be a breath of fresh air... not complaining though. π
Will you know what website pages are ranking on the first page with Ahrefs free version?
Ubersuggest is way better than other tools I have used! Especially for keyword research.
Thanks for sharing, will check it out.
moz.com and semrush are the two big players. You can try Moz-free for 30 days and get what you need out of it, in that time.
Thanks for reminding about the free trial man. I will sign up and check it out.
Ahrefs or Semrush are kings in the seo space and you wonβt find anything better.
With that being said, they cost a fortune so pay for a month and get all your research/content ideas in the month. You donβt need to pay for any longer.
This is a great hack tbh, thanks for sharing. I will try this once.
My project, Validbot.com, will help with #3 on your list, website analysis. It will help make sure you are following all of the best practices. For example, I ran your site through my tool and noticed a few things. Most importantly, you are missing a DMARC record and your SPF record is overly permissive. This means that emails your website sends may not be reliably delivered and bad actors may be able to send email pretending to be LaunchPedia. These are pretty easy DNS records to add, so I recommend doing it.

Thanks for your efforts man, will have a look at the report and fix them

Check out KWFinder. It's cheap and has many useful features.
Yeah KWFinder is awesome, but now i'm looking for a tool that covers all those 3 features
Ahrefs has some free tools, such as keyword generator and webmaster tools
With my budget, i think those are the only ahrefs tools i can get π
Thanks for sharing man

Oh wow! That seems like a really good place to start. Thanks! π
