    Chose Topic
    Topic was way less costly than MarketMuse with similar functionality. It was agnostic to CMS (WordLift is designed for Wordpress only). So it was priced well with all the functionality we needed.

    1. If you are going to write any piece of content for your readers, it will be your great assistant!!
    2. If you want to cover a topic in entirety and from the angle of a reader, you should really go for it.
    3. It also brings you opportunities you can exploit by just integrating it with Google Search Console.

    Topic (Chia Labs, Inc)
    Great at providing content briefs as well as for seeing the types of topics that rank well competitively. It's also good with finding content that needs to be refreshed which is a super easy way to drive near term SEO results.

    Topic (Chia Labs, Inc)
    • Using the GSC data to find new, adjacent content opportunities.
    • They are using GPT-3 for title generation and would love to see it used to provide more content suggestions beyond the titles/descriptions
    • Sometimes it doesn't surface 'questions' that people are asking related to lower volume terms but not sure of a way to solve that

    Well MarketMuse and Frase may seem alternative to one another but we are using both of them in our workflow for different purposes. While MarketMuse is best for Topic Modeling, Frase gives you edge with competitive analysis like Headings, Questions and so on. So yeah some of their features overlap each other but as I told earlier, we are using both of them in complement to each other.
