Use Cases and Deployment Scope

SEOquake is a great web extension that I use along with semrush to get quick information about a website's organic traffic data in the search results. Features like semrush ranking, traffic data, and backlinks info are great to make quick decisions. The ability to change the search locale is also helpful to see what the search results are like in different locations.

Pros

  • traffic information
  • checking serp results from different locale
  • getting display ads information

Cons

  • on-page seo data like word counts

Return on Investment

  • good for on-page SEO and quick information

SEOquake to improve SEO

Pros

  • Gives a ton of SEO info in one area. I usually have to use a few different Chrome extensions that show different areas to get the full picture that this tool gives you up front.
  • It gives you info on ways to improve the infrastructure of your website.
  • It's free for the first 100 pages of audit.

Cons

  • It doesn't have a sleek or exciting design. It is kinda clunky and not super appealing in color.
  • Due to the drop design it can be hard to read. If they updated the program to be more modern I think it would be used much more frequently.

Return on Investment

  • It helps promote a positive return on organic results. I have seen a 5% increase since using the program of organic search results only.

SEOquake: Helpful, but Lackluster

Pros

  • The SEOquake extension is helpful and non-invasive to the browser. It hides away in the top left corner and doesn't expand unless you tell it to.
  • The domain comparison feature is nice to see a high-level view of how a website sizes up against competitors.
  • It gives a nice diagnosis of some key features that the website is doing well in, and where it could improve.

Cons

  • The high-level parameters are nice to see, but for a new-to-the-tool person, they are confusing and don't provide a lot of explanation, unfortunately.
  • The keyword density section is somewhat helpful but gives the density in a percentage without rationale as to what an average percentage is or what the website should aim for.

Return on Investment

  • SEOquake hasn't made enough of an impression compared to some other tools we like to use. It's helpful in a sense, but lackluster where other tools shine.
