Read full review Yoast Wordpress SEO Plugins is really great for any application - home pages, blogs, etc. It saves a lot of time researching keywords, but it is time-consuming crafting content, which I think is a necessary evil. I wasn't really seeing the immediate results I had hoped for, but there could be a variety of reasons for that (cookies, caches, etc.). Overall, if you have the time to dedicate and utilize the tool, it's awesome!
Read full review Pros The primary Dashboard is pretty excellent—not too much stuff to look at, just the main issues and a hierarchical breakdown of the site structure I love the Broken Links tab—this is a super simple way to find what's broken so you can fix site circulation issues The indexation tab is really nice too—no need to surf through thousands of URLs in a spreadsheet to assess the index Read full review Evaluate the SEO score of any given page's content. Makes it simple to manage the title and description for a page (what shows up on Google search results). Boils down complicated topics such as canonical URLs for non-technical users. Easy explanations for any and all options, including why to use or not use an option. Read full review Cons DeepCrawl really doesn't have too many problems, to be honest. I would only say that there is a pay per use issue, it is quite expensive. But if I am honest, it is worth every penny. Read full review Density: Because even the free, basic Yoast SEO tool has SO MANY FEATURES, if you're brand new to SEO as a concept/practice, you might feel a little overwhelmed at first. Just go watch the training videos! Bulk Title Editing: I'm sure this tool can be useful, but I've never found it to be particularly intuitive or helpful. Limitations: I'm grasping at straws here, but it would be nice if some of the premium (paid) features- specifically the social media previews- were available in the free version. Like I said, grasping. Read full review Likelihood to Renew I see no reason to discontinue using Yoast as it has been very beneficial for my website and my business.
Read full review Usability All the information is integrated on-screen while writing content and the scores and related score elements (i.e. paragraph/sentence length, transition words, keyphrase density, etc.) are all updated live as I write which I think is amazingly helpful.
Read full review Support Rating I liked the platform overall. It is a good crawler. I no longer use because it's duplicate of what I get with
seoClarity . I did not give it 10/10 because sometimes I had a hard time isolating site areas that I wanted and didn't get much technical support from Conductor on how to use the tool
Read full review There are plenty of amazing articles published on their site, however, I don't rate their actual support team as being particularly helpful. I made multiple points of contact regarding the internal link counter not working and even though they began troubleshooting I think when it became too hard it was just forgotten about and so is still unresolved.
Read full review Alternatives Considered DeepCrawl is a great tool when compared to other similar solutions. What sets it apart from the competition in my experience with it, is the convenience of the cloud. In addition to having a multitude of tools faced by a digital marketer in today's landscape from analysis of site backlinks to competition analysis.
