Ubersuggest Review 2021 – Freemium Keyword Suggestion Tool

By Leave a Comment

Ubersuggest Review 2021 – Free Keyword Suggestion Tool by Neil Patel

Do you know that there is a new keyword research tool in the market?

If no, why not take a look at it.

Firstly, it seldom happens that you find a new tool in the market.

Secondly, most of the keyword research tools are not free of cost but do not worry newbies it is free of cost.

Ubersuggest is a new tool which is available free of cost on Neil Patel’s website.

If you have not used it for SEO and content marketing, it is the right time to update your keyword research tools list.

I personally use it for SEO and find related keywords for my terms.

Apart from free keyword research tools, there are big fish in the market like SEMrush, Moz, and Ahrefs which are paid.

UberSuggest is the best free tool that you should consider while doing SEO of your website or content.

This keyword research tool was declining but Neil Patel has turned the tables so you can get the most out of it.

He not only acquired it but also launched it on his own website therefore, it has become a part of his website.

The updated version of UberSuggest gets the suggestions from Google Suggest and Google Keyword Planner that is the reason it is rising among the bloggers, SEO experts, content marketers.

So, it is in improved shape isn’t it?

I have been using it for more than two months and I could not stop myself from praising it.

Let’s see the features of this tool which is free of cost and schway.

1: Collects Data from Google Keyword Planner

The first feature that Ubersuggest offers is the volume data that it derives from Google keyword planner.

Google Keyword Planner is no longer available free of cost, you have to run a campaign to get keyword ideas and volume data. It is surprising in nature but it is surprising in a good way.

So if you are searching for keyword research tools which fulfill your needs. Ubersuggest does it free of cost and in a convenient manner.

Ubersuggest also pulls data from Google Keyword planner but if we compare it with Google keyword planner. I highly recommend this tool due to its user-friendly interface.

Ubersuggest also provides CPC (cost per click), search volume, search engine difficulty and paid difficulty.

It is all the basic information you need for a keyword which is available there.

Furthermore, this keyword suggestion tool also shows you the percentage of your chance to rank in the top 20 results of Google.

Google SERPs are also there which show domain score, estimated visits to that ranked domain and social media shares.

Keyword also gives you suggestions to add it in your content to get more traffic which is another positive element.

2: Ubersuggest Filters:

This tool also offers filters to narrow down your research and helps you to find the suitable keyword for your SEO.

It includes search volume where you can put numbers to limit it down according to your choice.

Furthermore, you can also select the range of paid difficulty and set the range from minimum to maximum. Same is the case with CPC (cost per click) and SEO difficulty.

Lastly, you can also include and exclude keywords which you want to include and exclude. You can also apply those settings and reset them to default whenever you want.

Want to save the keywords data to your drive? Do not worry, it also gives you an option to export the file to your computer.

3: Suggestions from Google Suggest

Finding good and easy long tail keywords to rank is one of the burning questions for modern SEO and content marketers.

The search engine of Google is becoming smarter and smarter, therefore, SEO friendly content is not everything. You need to write a quality content which encompasses all the questions and answers your viewers are looking for.

Answering queries is one of the best ways to rank for Google Voice Search and it also sends a signal to Google about relevance.

For example, I want to do SEO and looking for answers to my questions, my possible questions are:

And so on.

Any blogger can write good content on this topic but writing content is not a hard nut to crack.

Firstly, your task is to find the related questions and answer the questions.

When you search for the term like “SEO” into the keyword research tools, you will get massive related keywords.

If we look back, old Ubersuggest would give you keywords suggestions that include SEO and other bunch of words. For example:

  • SEO 2020
  • SEO 2021
  • SEO trends
  • SEO tips

How to solve this issue in the first place? The first way is to get a paid tool. For example, you use Ahrefs, and type the term “SEO” and it will give you a bunch of keywords.

You can also visit Google to get suggestions provided by it. If you want to write content on SEO then you need to visit Google and type the term “SEO” and wait.

ubersuggest 1

Here you get ideas for waiting for a while.

After hitting the enter, I also scroll down and look at the end to get more suggestions. According to Google, these terms are related to SEO term.

ubersuggest 2

Those are good tips to write content, but they have drawbacks.

  1. Moz is not free of cost. Most of the users/bloggers cannot afford it.
  2. Using Google’s suggestions need enough time.

In this situation, Ubersuggest comes handy and solves your problem of finding long tail keywords.

So you get everything at once place. It gives you keyword difficulty not only as search engine ranking but also as paid listings.

When you start using it, you come to know it is easy to use and you can get what you want. I personally use it and recommend it.

Ubersuggest not only gets data from Google Keyword planner but also gives you suggestions from Google aka LSI keywords.

Currently, it is in good hands and improved from the previous version. In a nutshell, Ubersuggest does all the work for you free which you expect from a premium keyword research tool.

It solves all the problem with ease.

4: Simple User Interface

Ubersuggest has the simplest and easiest interface. Just enter the term and hit enter and you are there. It gives you all the data within a couple of seconds.

You can use filters to exclude phrases from your keyword to get whatever results you want.

It is very easy to use that you do not need any demo or video to guide you. Still, there are a number of videos available on YouTube if you want to learn something.

It is available in various languages, just choose your desired language and click the search button.

5: Analyzing Your Competition

The search bar will allow you to type the domain of the competitor and analyze its traffic as well as the keywords he is getting traffic from or ranking for.

ubersuggest 4
ubersuggest 5

Scroll down to get more insights, it allows you to see the best performing pages, the social shares of that URL, and the targeting countries.

You can also see the backlink profile of that site when you visit the “Backlinks” tab and put the domain there to get the overview.

This feature also helps you to locate the referral links of your competitor from where he/she gets the links.

It can also be used to analyze your site too.

SEO Audit…

Site audit option is also added to do the SEO audit of your site.

Ubersuggest will give you a lot of helpful insights in audit:

  • Your ranked keywords
  • Backlinks profile
  • Errors you need to fix on your site

The issue is that it does not guide you how to fix that specific issue.

Ubersuggest As A Tool

In back days, it was free but now it is extremely cheap as compared with other alternatives in the market.

But still it works as a free tool but there is a limitation. Overall, it is a good tool and I personally use it.

The advanced SEO filters are also available for keywords, it will not charge much for it.

How schway is that?

It is a gift for newbies, bloggers and content marketers. For me, it is replete with pros. It is also an alternative to keywords everywhere.

Am I missing something? Tell me in the comments.

Do not forget to share this post and also share your experience of using it.

Premium managed hosting will give you bulletproof security. It will give you a tight layer of security which will save you from hacking, DoS, malware and other security attacks.

Expert Support

It will not be a fair statement that shared hosting providers consist of poor support. There are many companies which have staff that is well-trained and have knowledge of WordPress. Still, they cannot give you support of different things including site functionality, performance and WordPress errors etc. But opposite is the case with managed hosting support, they will give you expert WordPress assistance.

Speed:

Speed is a part and parcel of site ranking and there are many things you can do to improve it. It includes the usage of cache plugin and content delivery network including MaxCDN and reduces the size of images.

Most of the best managed WordPress hosting providers enable content caching at server level which gives you relief from external cache plugins. If you will use a normal plan, there is a chance that you may need CDN to improve the speed of website.

Daily Backups:

They take a backup of your website on daily basis. It includes data, content, themes and plugins which you can access from your dashboard. It will save you some bucks if you are paying for backup or maintenance including BlogVault and Vaultpress.

Additionally, they also create a restore point and if you face any problem. You can restore your site to the previous version when your site was fully functional with one click.

Automatic Updates

You do not need to update your WordPress files to the latest version because they will do it for you. Whenever the update is released and you do not have to pay for this update. Your managed WordPress hosting will do it for you.

No Downtime

It will never go down whatever the amount of traffic is, on your website.

First of all, you need to know your achievement and priorities. If you are thinking to create a website that will drive a lot of traffic to your site, you need to get a managed host for it. It is because it will allow you enough traffic volume with stability for sites especially WordPress websites. If you are building a site for the first time and you purchase a managed host it may not be helpful.

You need to consider the customization and level of support you want. Shared hosting gives one click installations for your convenience, these can preload your website with settings that you may not like. Especially if you are a developer. If you will use a managed host, it will give you an opportunity to make smart decision while installation including security. It depends on your approach and achievement, what you want to do?

My Top Picks

After reviewing all the managed hosting providers, we consider every hosting provider as the best managed WordPress hosting. Let’s have a bird’s eye view of it.

SiteGroudn is for developers and bloggers who need features including SSL support, staging area, git integration at low price. They offer free migration, pretty inexpensive, and support team is quick. Most of the questions are answered within one or two hour. Live chat guys are not knowledgeable. So you have to go through ticket support system for technical questions instead of live chat group.

FlyWheel is for people who are not developers. Flywheel came into existence pretty late but they established themselves quickly. They offer managed hosting solution for WordPress, designers, small business owners and bloggers etc and easy to use. If you do not want to stuck with technical issues choose Flywheel. The dashboard of this company is very easy to use as compare to other companies. In short, Flywheel is not for developers but for those who can configure and setup WordPress sites.

Are you a developer? Use Pagely but they are expensive, it costs $499 / month).

Last year, Pagely had moved their servers to Amazon and since then they are providing world-class services for small blogs, membership sites, WooCommerce stores, SaaS solutions and global corporate sites. Their infrastructure technology has automatically daily backups, HHVM, built-in redundancy, real time malware monitoring, SSL acceleration, Press CDN, Press Armour and developer friendly tools including SSH, WP-CLI, GIT, Staging, REST API etc.

If you want everything, use WPEngine or Kinsta. These options are for you if you do not want to compromise the quality of support and developer friendly tools. We have been using WPEngine for a long time and did not face any trouble.

How to Improve Your Alexa Ranking in 30 Days – 2021

By

Want to improve Alexa Ranking?

If yes, you are at the right place.

Numbers don’t lie.

When it comes to the value and popularity of your business, it is an important thing to have a significant Alexa ranking.

Why?

It is a common metric that investors or business partners will use to measure the state of your business.

They will use it to calculate the health of your business and whether the trend of your business is up or down.

The lower your Alexa Rank, the better, and vice versa.

That is the reason that most of the business owners pay attention to their Alexa rank. They work tirelessly to improve it.

In this post, I would like to discuss two key things.

First of all, I shall discuss the factors that Alexa takes into consideration when determines the rankings.

Secondly, I shall give a strategy which you can use to improve your Alexa Ranking in 30 days or less.

Let’s hit it.

What is an Alexa Rank?

So we are on the same page, allow me to define or let you know what is an Alexa rank.

According to Avangate,

“It’s a ranking system set by alexa.com (a subsidiary of amazon.com) that audits and makes public the frequency of visits on various web sites.

Alexa’s support section also makes clear even by explaining how they determine the traffic rankings:

“Alexa’s traffic estimates and ranks are based on the browsing behavior of people in our global data panel which is a sample of all Internet users. Alexa’s Traffic Ranks are based on the traffic data provided by users in Alexa’s global data panel over a rolling 3 month period.”

Here is what Google’s Alexa Rank looks like at number one:

Alexa Rank at number one

And here is another website Quick Sprout that looks like at the moment:

Quick Sprout Alexa Rank

Not nearly as good as Google, nevertheless still solid. So the lowest ranked website can be somewhere around 30 million.

Which factors does Alexa analyze?

Before I start sharing the strategy plan, it is important to understand what Alexa considers when assigns a ranking to websites.

Luckily, Alexa is very bold about how it calculates the data or how its data is calculated.

According to the Alexa Blog, “Every day, Alexa estimates the average daily visitors and pageviews to every site over the past 3 months. The site with the highest combination of visitors and pageviews over the past 3 months is ranked #1.”

“The site with the least is ranked somewhere around 30 million. If no one in our measurement panel visited a site over the past 3 months there is no rank at all for that site.”

They also provide a couple of graphs to make this clear:

No of site visitors vs Alexa Rank

There is no doubt in saying that Google receives more traffic than any other website on the web.

It gets more pageviews and daily visitors, so it stands at the top of the sites.

Alexa also claims the fact that the closer you get to the top of the rankings, the harder it becomes to move up a rank.

While it is easy for a site that has ranking of 25,600,172 to move up to, let’s say, 19 million. But climbing from 50 to 40 is more difficult.

Change in Visitors vs Change in Rank

The main key point is that it is all about two key factors:

  • Average daily visitors
  • Pageviews over the last three months

After this discussion, here is what you need to do to improve your Alexa ranking with ease and quick.

Certify your site metrics

If you do not mind to make a small investment, it is a good idea to use Certified site metrics of Alexa.

It will give you a certified code of Alexa that will directly measure the traffic of your website.

It offers several advantages:

  • You get a more accurate Alexa Rank
  • You have access to more in-depth analytics reports (using a private dashboard)
  • You can closely monitor the performance of your site
  • You will also get the option of showing unique visitors, pageviews, and ranks publicly

Here are the different pricing options:

Alexa pricing options

The insight plan gives a free monthly SEO audit which is an important factor to note. You can also get a full site audit using the Advanced plan every two weeks.

This is just something you need to keep in mind while choosing a plan.

Here is a screenshot from Alexa support that explains how to get your site certified:

Site Metrics

In a nutshell, if you certify your site metrics, it will give you an advantage over other sites.

You can get a clear overview of your website and it’s health. It also has tools to improve your ranking.

Produce epic content

It is an important component of online marketing on any level.

So you not only need to create an epic content but you have to create A+ content for your audience to satisfy them.

So it is another necessity for boosting your Alexa ranking.

Get quality backlinks

What are two critical factors that Google takes into account when assigning a ranking to your website?

It includes authority and trust. “Domain trust/authority consists of 23.87% of Google’s ranking algorithm.”

Components of Google’s ranking algorithm

To get quality inbound links is a straightforward way to increase the authority or trust of your site.

They have to be from relevant and reputable websites.

It is easier to realize than done.

I wish that it was as easy to write a blog post and having multiple big name publications that backlink to you.

Of course, it is a hard nut to crack.

At the end of the day, it stands back to create great content.

In fact, I want to agree with 90/10 rule of link building, where “90% of your effort should go into creating great content, and 10% into link building.”

Rule of Link Building

When it comes to the method of backlinking or link building, guest posting is one of the best techniques.

If you can get even a few guest posts on reputable or authority sites, it will result in an improved Alexa ranking within a month.

Analyze your competitors’ keywords

Here is a question for you.

What is your motivation behind to improve your Alexa Ranking? Or what is the purpose to improve your Alexa ranking?

I think that the reason behind it to have a better ranking than your competitors. Right?

Of course, you want to perform better in the competition. But how do you go for it?

One of the best ways to get an edge with Alexa Rank, and with SEO in general, is to analyze the keywords of your competitors.

You will want to know which keywords are bringing enough traffic, they way of generating backlinks and so on.

Once you will know the keywords that bring the bulk of traffic to their websites. You can optimize your website for those keywords and get used to it.

It is like killing two birds using one stone. It will not only improve your Alexa Rank, it will also improve your overall SEO ranking as well.

But how can you analyze their keywords?

I suggest using Google’s Keyword Planner.

There are a number of tools available but this is the universal.

Google is generally a go-to source for web data.

Here is what you do.

Go to your Keyword Planner dashboard.

Click on “Search for new keywords using a phrase, website or category.”

Keyword Planner
Keyword Planner

Under “Your landing page,” type in the URL of your competitor.

I will just use quicksprout.com as an example:

quick sprout

Click on “Get Ideas” at the bottom, and your screen will show a list of competitor keywords.

Here are just a number of keywords that come from my search:

Keywords

By using the Google Keyword Planner, you can determine the volume of monthly searches in instant manner. You will also be able to determine the level of competition for each keyword.

Create better content that performs better than your competitors. It is a great way to boost your SEO and at the same time, it also improves your Alexa rank.

If you want to see a significant improvement within 30 days, I will recommend first going after minimum competition. It means that go for minimal competition keywords with a lot of searches.

Focus on low competition keywords initially for a surge in your ranking.

Conclusion

In several ways, your Alexa rank directly affects the progress as well as the health of your business.

It is something that key stakeholders will often take into consideration whether your company is worth doing business with or not.

That is why achieving a favorable ranking that is, at least in the top 100,000 should be your priority.

If you will follow this formula, I can assure you that you will see at least a reasonable improvement in your Alexa rank quickly.

However, if your site is getting ranking in a poor way. It may take a while to get to the point where your business will become attractive to businessmen.

And Alexa rank is an important metric, I suggest making your efforts at improving it.

How big of a factor has your Alexa Ranking been in terms of business partnerships and opportunities?
