      I'm using semrush so I would also suggest you to go for semrush.

      thanks

        Hi Mahendra,

        Semrush is good and has a very easily useable interface. My only critics would be that it focusses maily obn competition and my believe is that you should focus on your self and in distinguishing from the others. What would you do with the information if you know exactly on which keywords somebody has PPC on? Use them aswell?

        Good luck!

            Hi Mahendra,

            When it comes to seeing which keywords and ads your competitors are using, you can use tools like SpyFu, SEMrush, or iSpionage.

            hope this helps.

            Thanks

              How to know competitors keywords for adwords

              I want to run google campaign for adwords and I want to target keywords that my competitor is ranking for. How can I know what are the keywords that are helping my competitors the most. Is there some way so that I can know what my competitor is bidding for those keywords. I heard it also depends on the landing page quality. Please suggest the best strategy to run adwords at lower cost and yet perform well. I am willing to run campaign for this website .  It is basically meant to connect manufacturers representatives and independent sales reps to businesses. Any suggestions are welcome.

              Are there free tools that would tell me the cpc for my keywords?

              If not what tools do you recommend to use to get an accurate cpc $ for estimating budget?

              Adwords negative keywords / keyword lists conflicting?

              Does any of you had any experience on large 5k+ shared negative keyword lists impacting normal campaign negative keywords in Adwords even if they are not selected on these campaigns? And a second question; does anyone know how selected negative keyword lists can be removed from a campaign? I seem to be able to add them but not to remove them... Cheers!

              Google Analytics CPC and PPC not Matching

              Hi Why do our CPC in Google Analytic not match our PPC in Adword, surely they should be identical?  We have Auto-tagging switched on and data in our history is wrong so it is not a timing issue. Thanks

              PPC question for the experts

              I know this is paid search but since Moz had a section for it, I thought it would be ok to ask. 🙂 According to: http://support.google.com/adwords/answer/2497836?hl=en Broad match modifier +tennis +shoes Ads may show on searches for tennis shoes
              buy tennis shoes
              best shoes for tennis Ads won't show on searches for running shoes
              tennis sneakers I'm using (for a client) +wedding +photographer.  It should show on wedding photographer hire a wedding photographer best wedding photographer in dallas It should not show on photographer in Dallas become a photographer dallas pictures But it is.  Why would this happen?  Isn't that exactly what it says it won't show up on? Also, Google writes: Don't leave space between the plus sign (+) prefix and the word you're modifying! •Correct: +leather +shoes
              •Incorrect: + leather + shoes
              •Incorrect: +leather+shoes Yet the client was told by Google the opposite.  "I spoke with Google and they confirmed that the space after the plus and before wedding (“+ wedding”) would notrequire “wedding” to show up." How on Earth does this reconcile or make ANY sense? ETA:  This is fairly clear to me: Be sure there are no spaces between the + and modified words, but do leave spaces between words. The right way to do it: +formal +shoes. The wrong way to do it: +formal+shoes. http://www.google.com/ads/innovations/bmm.html

              Cost per click on PPC

              What is the best way to get a good cpc estimate other than actually running the campaign? I have had several people asking for budgets and wasn't sure how to answer. Any suggestions?

              Index or Noindex PPC Landing Pages?

              Hi all, We have thousands of PPC landing pages for our products. Usually, these pages are very similar and may differ only slightly for the keyword in question. The landing pages are sitting in a sub-domain of our site. From SEO perspective, assuming we don't want to get hit by Panda, Penguin and other animals Google stuffed into its ranking algorithm...Is it a good idea not to index these landing pages at all (i.e. add meta robots - noindex, nofollow to these pages)? What say you? Thanks!

              Does anybody know of a good bulk import http response checker? The one I was using has disappeared and I can only find checkers that only take one URL at a time.

              An example of something I'm looking for but I want to check multiple checkers: http://web-sniffer.net/
