    Majestic has features that most of their competitors don't. The backlink index is better than SEMRush in my opinion which also lacks being able to look at links from a range of dates. Their metrics are harder to fool when compared to Moz and I would say that AHREF's is a good …

    Majestic is best used in conjunction with a tool like Moz and SEMRush. Although it can be used by itself, it is difficult to work with unless you really know what you're looking for and how to use that data when you find it.

    Most of the SEO platforms have their own unique features. Majestic really focuses on backlinks, which is arguably the most important aspect of SEO. It is not a full-feature platform such as Moz or SEMRush, but they are the best in backlinks. Majestic fits in any large-scale SEO …

    Majestic is #2 on my list. SEMRush is my favorite because of its breadth of scope. The features it offers for a similar price are, in my opinion, superior. Majestic is better in terms of domain analysis. SEMRush is better in terms of keyword tracking, SEO Audits, PPC analysis, …

    Majestic has the biggest index of backlinks. Also, it's list of parameters for backlinks is the biggest, which makes filtering backlinks a lot easier.

    All of these tools have their place and they all are very good. I can't really compare Majestic to any of them as I have very specific uses of Majestic. If I had to pick one tool to use for the rest of my SEO career it would probably be SEMRush. If I could …

    Ahrefs Site Explorer comes pretty close to Majestic SEO. I always used both the tools in parallel as some features were better in Ahrefs. But if you are looking for a cheaper tool and don't use the backlink research tool so often, go for one of the plans from Majestic SEO.

    Majestic SEO is sort of in its own league compared to Open Site Explorer and Google Search Console. GSC really only offers the links it finds and does limit to 1000 links on export. OSE is part of a larger package of Moz tools. It does a solid job of finding links but doesn't …

    Majestic SEO lacks some of the features of SEMRush and MOZ, but these features are simply not what the software focuses on (or even claims to focus on). Majestic's all about the crawl--from what I've seen (and I've compared monthly crawl data provided by these other platforms …
    Chose Majestic SEO
    It has a much richer backlink analysis tool. Open site explorer from Moz is a runner up, but I feel like Majestic SEO is more comprehensive.

    Majestic is a really great tool if your company is spending considerable resources on ongoing SEO efforts. In general, Majestic isn't for beginner SEO users, but a more advanced tool to get into deep SEO tactics. I would recommend this for agencies that have a significant investment in SEO. If you're a small team or a small business looking to improve SEO for yourself or company, there are platforms that offer a variety of tools for new to moderate expertise.

    Pros
    Majestic SEO
    • I like Majestic's own metrics Trust and Citation flow, that are very representative of the real value of the website and it's potential effect on the rankings of the website it's linking to.
    • Also, theme (topic) of the website is very useful in the backlink report. This allows to easily identify backlinks relevant to your business.
    • The index of number of backlinks that is provided by Majestic is usually a lot bigger than the indexes of their competitors.
    • Lost link tracker is very useful for tracking dropped links of your projects (you can verify and track multiple domains). This allows to keep track on how many of your ads and articles stay live and sometimes we contact publishers to tell them that their changes on the website (i.e. updates) caused our article or link to go down.

    Cons
    Majestic SEO
    • Its API for developers and big companies sometime don't give the actual data.
    • Rank tracker is not 100% accurate, but you can create a rough estimate by the report.
    • Backlink history is also missing some links, but I found them mostly.
    • Sometimes site explorer does not give the actual report, so you should check manually too.

    Once you've grown accustomed to the depth and accuracy of Majestic's crawl, it's hard to consider paying for anything else (or settling for free options). SEMRush and MOZ can get you somewhere, but in the right hands, a tool as powerful as Majestic can do a lot for a business's link building strategy.

    In started when our team started to use this tool, we had trouble understanding many of its features, so its customer support team was our teacher to understand all its complicated features and also how they are used to get better results. Nowadays we are working very efficiently without any help.

    Return on Investment
    Majestic SEO
    • ROI is difficult to ascertain in healthcare marketing, mostly due to privacy laws. Although, Majestic has improved our insight into our digital content, giving us data to work with on the primary site, which has led to an overall increase in organic search.
