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.

Semrush with the quick data that it provides on the search results page it's helpful to make quick decisions. The ability to change the SERP locale is also really nice as it helps us analyze the search results page from different locations.
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. Read full review Gives a ton of SEO info in one area. I usually have to use a few different Chrome extensions that show different areas to get the full picture that this tool gives you up front. It gives you info on ways to improve the infrastructure of your website. It's free for the first 100 pages of audit. 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 The high-level parameters are nice to see, but for a new-to-the-tool person, they are confusing and don't provide a lot of explanation, unfortunately. The keyword density section is somewhat helpful but gives the density in a percentage without rationale as to what an average percentage is or what the website should aim for.

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 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
