Ubersuggest 6.0: Track and Improve Your Rankings Without Learning SEO

I’ve been an SEO for roughly 17 years now.

And one thing that has remained constant, no matter how much
you know about SEO, there is just too much to do.

So much so, that most SEOs don’t even optimize their own websites anymore. And if they do, you’ll find that their site doesn’t rank for many competitive terms.

Why?

Because it is a lot of work!

That’s why I’m excited to announce Ubersuggest 6.0.

It now tracks and improves your rankings, even if you don’t have an SEO bone in your body.

So, what’s new?

Dashboard and login

First off, you can now keep track of all of your websites.
You’ll have to register to
use this feature, but don’t worry, it’s free.

Once you register, you’ll be dropped into a dashboard.

Now for me, I’m already tracking a few websites. Which is why
my dashboard is already populated.

The dashboard will keep track of your SEO errors, link
growth (or decline), your monthly search traffic, your overall search rankings,
and any SEO errors that you need to fix.

Best of all, it crawls your website for you each and every week so you don’t have to worry about keeping up with Google’s latest algorithm changes.

And with the search rankings feature, you can automatically track how your rankings are changing on a daily basis.

Rank tracking

Within each site you add to the dashboard, you’ll be able to
automatically track your rankings for any specific keyword.

Not only are you able to track your rankings on desktop devices, but Ubersuggest also shows how you rank on mobile devices.

If you want to track specific keywords, all you have to do is click Add Keywords and it will pull a list of suggestion from your Google Search Console. Of course, you can also track any other keyword even if it doesn’t show up in your Search Console.

What’s also cool is that you have the ability to track your rankings in any country, city, or region. That means if you do local SEO or international SEO, you can see your rankings anywhere.

There’s also a date picker so once you’ve been using
Ubersuggest for a while, you’ll be able to see a nice chart of how your
rankings are improving over time.

Conclusion

What’s great about these changes is you can now directly see how Ubersuggest is helping you grow your search traffic.

It will automatically keep track of all of your changes and
notify you when it finds any new SEO issues to fix.

And over the next few months, you’ll see a few more features added that will make your life even easier.

One example is that I’ll introduce email alerts so that you don’t have to log into Ubersuggest anymore and it emails you when there is an issue that needs your attention.

I’ll also be adding in competitive analysis features. You’ll be able to track your competitors and be notified when they make an SEO or marketing change that you should look at.

And my long-term goal is to make it so you don’t even have to code or make any changes manually. Ubersuggest will eventually be able to go into your website and make these fixes for you. However, this feature won’t happen until next year sometime.

So, what do you think of the new Ubersuggest? Give it a try… make sure you create your free account.

PS: If you missed it, I released some cool features like local keyword research and a billion-plus keyword database last week. Click here to get the update on those new Ubersuggest features.

Ubersuggest 5.0: Generate 1 Million Keyword Suggestions in 7 Seconds (Seriously)

Ubersuggest started out as a tool that provided suggestions through Google Suggest.

And although that’s great, everyone these days is using
Google Suggest to come up with keyword ideas.

There have to be more keyword ideas out there that get more search volume and aren’t competitive, right?

Well, there are, and now with the new Ubersuggest, you’ll get access to them.

Here are the 2 big changes I am making with this release…

Introducing a new keyword database

Because we have results in our database for more than a billion different keywords, I thought it would be fun to tap into it and provide you with even more keyword suggestions.

Now when you perform a search on Ubersuggest for any keyword, you’ll see a “related” tab with even more suggestions.

And each tab shows you how many keywords are in that group.

As you can see for the term “digital marketing”, just in the United States there are over 30,000 keyword recommendations.

And for terms like “dog”, there are over 1 million keyword recommendations.

dog

Don’t worry though, results from Google Suggest are still there under the “suggestions” tab but you can now see even more search terms if you click on “related”.

What’s cool is that you can even export all of the keywords via CSV.

And if you want to leverage the filters to fine-tune the results, you can easily do so.

filters

For example, I used the filters setting to find keywords with a minimum search volume of 400 searches a month and a maximum SEO difficulty of 50. Ubersuggest then fine-tuned the results to 489 keywords related to “digital marketing” that I should consider target instead of me having to manually go through 30,000 plus recommendations.

And with the CSV report, it adjusts as the settings with the filters change. So you can export the keywords that you want and ignore the keywords you aren’t planning to target.

Ubersuggest now has local search

Another big change that we made to Ubersuggest is that we
introduced local keyword research.

You can now pull up keyword stats and ideas on any city, county, region, or country.

For example, if I want to know the search volume and keyword
recommendations for West Hollywood, California, I can now do so.

From there, Ubersuggest shows keyword search volume, keyword recommendations, and even content ideas for a blog post.

On top of that, when you head over to the “keyword ideas” report, you’ll also notice that the SERPs results, which shows all of the sites that rank for that term, are now adjusted to also show the ranking sites within that region.

So, what’s next for Ubersuggest?

Well, speaking of keyword research, you’ll start seeing keyword recommendations based on questions, comparisons, and prepositions like Answers the Public within a month.

And, of course, as I promised earlier, next Tuesday I am releasing the rank tracking and dashboard features on Ubersuggest.

If you haven’t already, head on over to Ubersuggest to give the new keyword database a try.

And if you are trying to use the local SEO features, you may find that they only work once you are in the app.

I haven’t been able to make the changes to the main
Ubersuggest landing page yet, but once you type in a keyword and test it out,
you can then switch your location to any city.

So, what do you think of the changes?

PS: Make sure you test Ubersuggest out.

Ubersuggest 4.0: The Ultimate Content Marketing Tool

Why do you do keyword research?

It’s to find more lucrative keywords to rank for on Google, right?

But once you find these keywords, you still have to figure out how to rank for them.

For that reason, I decided to update Ubersuggest because I wanted to show you what kind of content to create and even how to promote it.

That way you can start ranking for these newly found keywords.

Here’s what’s new…

Content ideas

The way you rank for a keyword is by creating content around it. I know content isn’t king anymore and that’s because there are over 1 billion blogs on the web. That means Google can be really picky about what they decide to rank.

So now, not only do you need to write amazing content, but you also have to promote it if you want to do well.

To help you with this I created a Content Ideas report in Ubersuggest. So whenever you do keyword research, you’ll see an overview that looks like this:

overview

Just like before, you’ll see a graph at the top with the search volume over time, some keyword recommendations and, at the very bottom, a list of blog posts that performed exceptionally well for that keyword.

When you click on “content ideas” in the navigational menu or you click on “view all content ideas,” you’ll then be taken to a page that looks something like this:

content ideas

This page shows you all of the popular blog posts that have been written related to the keyword or phrase you searched.

The list is ordered by social shares, so the posts with the highest social shares are at the top. At the bottom, you can keep clicking to see more results. Even if your screen only shows 1 or 2 pages, just keep clicking next and you’ll start to see results for pages 3, 4, 5, etc.

We only show you 20 results per page, but each key phrase will typically have hundreds, if not thousands, of results as our database has over 500,000,000 blog posts from around the world.

And because there are so many results, we’ve also created an easy to use filtering system so you can fine-tune your search by including certain keywords or excluding other ones and even putting minimum and maximum thresholds on social shares.

My favorite part about the content ideas report

I know you can do similar things with Buzzsumo and other tools, but this is why I created the Content Ideas report.

As I mentioned earlier, content isn’t king. You not only have to write amazing content (that’s why I sort the content by social shares as more shares typically mean people love it), but you also have to promote it.

You’ll notice that there are two other columns in this report that make the tool unique… one is “Estimated Visits” and the other is “Backlinks”.

headings

Estimated visits will show you how many visits the blog post generated from Google each month. Just click on “Keywords” and it will even show you the keywords that drive those visits and the position the article ranks for each of those terms.

keywords

Backlinks, on the other hand, are all of the referring domains that point to each article. So if 12 unique domains link to that blog post, then you’ll see the number “12” in that column. All you have to do is click on “links” and you’ll see the full list of backlinks.

links

Not only do I provide a thorough list of backlinks, but I also show you the overall page score, domain score, anchor text, and even the type of link.

The reasons I made the Content Ideas report like this are:

  1. By creating content similar to posts that have a lot of social shares, it increases the chances that the content you are writing is going to do well as people have already shown interest in that topic and even shared it on the social web.
  2. By showing you the keywords a blog post ranks for, you’ll know what keywords to focus on when writing the content. This way your post can rank as well.
  3. By showing you who links to your competition, you can now hit up everyone who links to competing articles and ask them to link to your piece of content.

Less fluff and more data

In addition to the Content Ideas report, you’ll now find that Ubersuggest provides you with more data and less fluff when you perform a keyword query.

For example, if you search for the term “dog food,” it will tell you that the average result that ranks in the top 10 has 72 backlinks and a domain score of 82.

speech bubble

This way, if you want to rank for that term or any other term, you’ll have a rough idea of what you need from an authority and backlink standpoint to achieve a spot on page one.

Conclusion

If you are going to create content or write a blog post, you should check out the Content Ideas report each time before you write.

The last thing you want to do is create content that people don’t care about reading. And this report will give you good feedback so that way you aren’t wasting your time creating content that doesn’t generate social shares, backlinks, or rankings.

You’ll also notice that some posts do extremely well from a social sharing standpoint but terrible from a backlink and a search traffic perspective.

Social shares will bring you more short-term traffic and search engines bring you less traffic upfront, but more consistent traffic over time.

This report will help you find a balance so that you can get both short-term traffic and consistent traffic over the long-haul.

So, head on over and try the new Content Ideas report.
