When starting an SEO project, it helps a lot to do keyword research since you can activate the VPN and have real data that does not manipulate your search history or your location, if you mix the VPN with an incognito section you can have real data without any kind of manipulation, which allows you to create quality and efficient content that really solves the problems of the target users.

I use it every single day. For business use as well personal use. It's very easy and intuitive to use. I can connect to a chosen server with very few clicks.

NordVPN has a number of partner companies, e.g. Revolut, N26, etc. which all offer NordVPN as a perk. I use it for that very reason. I haven't seen other products have a such a wide network of partners.

OpenVPN its a well known solution but it pales compared to WireGuard in terms of perfomance, speed and easey implementation.
Also it required less resources.
