Likelihood to Recommend If you want a reliable and accurate keyword rank tracking tool that can spit out beautiful monthly reports for your clients, then AWR is the tool for you. It is also cloud-based so you don't have to deal with the issues of proxies and VPNs like you would if running a similar program from your own server. It's not the cheapest option but it's probably the easiest to implement and most accurate option when it comes to cloud-based rank tracking software. Customer support has always been responsive and pleasant to deal with, I haven't had many issues, but have always had a good experience when I needed support.

It takes you through the initial steps and show you where you can improve. The paid versions are still pretty cheap compared to the competitors, but some of the others have more features and functional areas. However, bear in mind that the main reason this product exists is to provide leads for NPDigital marketing agency, so you'll get a fair amount of push in that direction.

Content authoring and management allows us to have the right word taxonomy.

While it can do this, it saves them out as HTML files on your hard drive or cloud server, which makes it super hard to share with others. The cloud version is a bit more expensive, which offers the same tools as the desktop, which I found a little troublesome and it didn't make sense to me. Their customer service was a little lacking. I had a couple of general questions and I was on hold for about 15 minutes...which isn't good when you're in the middle of a busy workday. Read full review Some of the tool's features, including backlink tracking and competition analysis, were either lacking or more appropriate for the top-performing websites that already had a lot of traffic. So they should improve in this segment Read full review Usability It's really easy to use. The interface is nice and tidy, and the learning curve is low. So it's a tool that's accessible for everyone. If not, there are plenty of guides in the tool itself or on the website. You can easily make lists and export data for use or to share, connect Google Drive, and go work with a team.
Read full review Support Rating They have a lot of information on their website, and also training and contact options in the tool. So you can learn on the go while trying the tool. And if you are stuck, support reacts really fast--sometimes the same day, sometimes the next day due to time zones. Payment is easy and easy to cancel.
Read full review Alternatives Considered BrightEdge is a lot more expensive, but we began using it when funds allowed us to, primarily for the online reporting and features not found in Advanced Web Ranking. But, as I mentioned earlier, we did not stop using Advanced Web Ranking when we introduced
BrightEdge because it does have some plus points not found in
BrightEdge .
Read full review We use each SEO research platform for different purposes. I believe they complement each other. Ubersuggest strengths, according to my experience, are related to content ideas, comprehensive keyword research to determine competitors' backlinks, and difficulty in achieving the desired results for any given SEO campaign. The Ubersuggest topic ideas tool gives different insights and benchmarks in relation to other similar platforms that fit our marketing needs.
