Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review SE Ranking is a fantastic tool if you are a marketing agency or freelancer looking for a single tool for the majority of your SEO work. It also includes B2B tools like their lead generation widget and white label reports that can help you generate new leads for your business. It would get 10 stars if their database was larger to accommodate research for small geographic areas, but they are always expanding their database so it may just be a matter of time. Research SE Ranking has pricing plans available for every budget.
Read full review Pros 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.

This includes auto reports and manuals. We can easily and quickly create reports to check our SEO progress month by month. Read full review Cons 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. Read full review I really don't think SE Ranking has many flaws. They are also rolling out an app at the moment - SE Ranking Pro - need to test that one. Some more video tutorials on the site on how to use some tools would be helpful. More in-system popups would be more helpful too.

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.

Read full review Support Rating 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.
Read full review The support is great but they don't have 24/7 support. And time zones can also be an issue sometimes. On the other hand there are plenty of guides and videos around to get yourself started. I never really needed support for "big" issues. And the help I got was good enough.
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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 competitor but each company keeps their own index of links so its good to use more than one tool

Read full review SE Ranking is better than
Serpstat or MOZ or
Ahrefs when it comes to tracking keyword rankings, but it lacks in every other SEO category, such as onsite and offsite SEO metrics, content analysis, etc... It's a good choice for agencies that are interested in tracking keywords for their clients, but other than that it underperforms in every other SEO category.

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. Read full review The website "health" report has allowed us to fix things that Google might find strange or cause us to lose rankings, which has been very helpful. It's given us more visibility into what exactly our SEO management company is doing and how they are performing, and if things are changing or not. It's very easy to see right from the dashboard. Being able to see how our competitors stack up against us has helped us know where to improve, what to focus on, and how to be even better. Read full review ScreenShots
