SEM RUSH
-
Has anyone else had bad experiences with the company behind SEMRUSH. They have me on an auto renewing subscription and refuse to let me off. There is no way to unsubscribe online and they don't answer phones/emails/messages. The only way is to cancel my debt card which is literally going to cause me a lot of ache...
The tool was highly inaccurate and practically worthless. I am really upset they are this unethical.

I have had no issues whatsoever with them. I actually have found them to provide the best customer service out of all the toolsI have used. Early on when i was trying different tools i cancelled with them after my next month billing started by about a week. They pleasantly cancelled my account and refunded the entire amount i was charged for the current month even though i was a week into it. I also had some technical questions that truly were beyond what support should be obligated to answer...really the questions were the type you typically would need to pay an seo consultant to answer, but they thoroughly answered them. Because of how they handled my cancellation, as well as overall service and i actually get a human on the phone, I am now a long term customer. I do agree that their data is not always 100% accurate, but I have tried all the well know tools out there and no ones data is 100%. On their site they list the specific times you can reach them. Anytime i have called it during the time window listed on the site i get a human...based in the US too BTW...

Hi,
We were using them in the past especially for their organic rank checker. Even though it's not accurate , it gives you an idea for what keywords a site is ranking for. (You can use other tools to check the accurate ranks for those keywords)
The cancellation was pretty straight forward. We just sent an email and stopped getting billed the next month. We have since signed back with them. Did you try reaching out to them at this # on the link below?

Search Intent and Relevance
Hello SEO gurus 🤓 I’m looking for the most efficient ways to analyze the search intent and relevance of competitors who are ranking for the keywords we’re targeting. While I know Google excels at assessing search intent and relevance, I’m interested in learning how we can evaluate these factors as metrics for our competitors. The goal is to understand their strategy better and find ways to outrank them. Do you have any tools or methodologies that you recommend for assessing competitor content to determine its alignment with search intent and user needs/relevance? I’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions on this!

How to set up a competitor URL with a language slug for a campaign
Hello, I am trying to set up a competitor with language slug for my (subfolder) website with a language slug. Let's say my website is something like: websiteholding.com/de/website
Competitive Research | Mar 15, 2024, 1:52 PM | Siir
My competitor is: competitor.com/de When I go to Campaign Settings > Comptetitor Sites > type in competitor.com/de > Hit Save Competitor > Then it shows the saved competitor without the language slug as competitor.com I am not sure if this is a correct method of tracking since for my DE website I would like to track the DE page of the competitor, not their global page. Please correct me if I am wrong and help me out on possible solutions? I am quite new to SEO & Moz , so any help on the topic would be appreciated.0 -
Is it allowed to buy an old website with external links en redirect it to your own site??
Hello, We noticed at MOZ that one of our competitor's websites has increased the number of external backlinks from 5k to 25k within a month. Upon investigating the links, we found that the competitor had acquired an old, unknown website with completely different content and external links in that month. The competitor then redirected that purchased website to their own website, instantly gaining 20k external links. This seems to be against Google's guidelines as it is an extremely unnatural way of link building and should be penalized by search engines. However, the website's Domain Authority (DA) has increased by 10 points in that month, and its rankings have greatly improved on Google. So it appears that acquiring an old website with many external links unrelated to your own website is highly profitable. We try to obtain links honestly, but we cannot reach 25k links naturally. Is there any way to report these practices to Google? Does anyone know how to do this?

What Exactly is traffic lift?
Under the keyword gap analysis under the competitive analysis report, there is a mention of traffic lift and it provides a number. Does the number represent the number of users or the number traffic to expect for that term? Or is it the positions?

What is the relationship between inbound links and linking domains?
In doing competitor research, there's a specific competitor that has fewer linking domains, but dramatically more inbound links. How do these two relate to each other? I do have a higher domain authority and more internal followed links with them having more internal nofollow and external (both follow and nofollow) links. I'm trying to understand how they can have 3.7k linking domains and 4.8 million inbound links while I have 4.1k linking domains and only 601k inbound links. What really defines an inbound link and what's there relationship between inbound links and linking domains?
