Bing Webmaster Tools vs. Nozzle

Bing Webmaster Tools is pretty much essential for any SEO analyst. Not all SEO optimizations carry over between Google and Bing and it's good to get up-front validation on crawl errors from the search engine itself. Bing Webmaster Tools is especially relevant now that Yahoo and Bing are under the same roof.

Nozzle is the right tool for any digital agency professional interested in making data-driven decisions. If keyword tracking or SEO as a whole is a part of a project, then Nozzle is a great tool to have access to. In short, if the word SEO is somewhere in the project description, then Nozzle should be listed as a required tool.

• Site crawls, once initiated, don't take very long to complete
• SEO analysis tells you which pages are not following best practices
• Page Traffic reports tell you which of your sites are appearing in search, their position in the rankings, and how it's been performing over time
• You can see the keywords people use to search for your site

• - It is great that we can change data SERP frequency to be daily / weekly / monthly / etc to save on limits (My current tracker can’t do this)
• - LOTS of data, and many ways to visualize them
• - Customer service is efficient, you can get them on Live chat. They also have an active Slack channel, and replies are really quick

• The UI is simple but very boring. It's very Microsoft and not very elegant.
• On the display of analytics, it is also very simple, without the ability to change graphs or charts to better display data.
• Bing Businesses could be better integrated and takes you to another site to view that data.

• It is hard to understand as a novice in SEO, more hover explanations would be helpful
• I do not think they have automatic reports and notifications but this would be nice to have
• Their sign in process is a bit odd, as you sign in and then get emailed a link

Very usable overall, quick to find information and conduct analysis for example of how a price of content is performing on Bing search. User interface is a bit clunky at times but easy enough once you get used to it.

Bing, which is free to use, is a good adjunct to our use of all these tools. If I had to stop using all but two, Bing and Google would be the ones that I would keep. Others have their place in our cycle based on what Google and Bing are reporting, but these are our early warning systems. Even if they don't offer the best way to a solution, they are the final word in what appears via their search index.

Nozzle is fitting in very well between my other Trackers (SERPWoo, Serpstat & Ubersuggest). As it confirms data focus and keyword ranking positions that other tools miss in some way or other, I can focus on easy picks for SERP position growth hacks then move to other tools to confirm.
