BrightEdge

BrightEdge Content = Industrialized SEO

Aspetti positivi:

BrightEdge Content has helped our marketing team identify search opportunities and effectively create targeted content to address long tail search queries in a way that would have been impossible otherwise.

Aspetti negativi:

At times, the workflow module within BrightEdge Content can be frustrating. We often execute content through contractors - communication and coordination can be clunky - this has improved as of late but we're still managing this outside of the system. That said, this is an SEO tool, not a workflow tool!

Excellent tool for SEO. Has all the functionality one could need.

Aspetti positivi:

Recommendations in the system based on keywords and preferred pages by keyword. Great site health audit check which lays out what needs to be fixed, by importance. (You can even assign value to to pages in Google Analytics, so you get a better idea of what to fix first.) Amazing team behind the product who is always looking for customer input to improve and add options. Assign specific tasks to people by function, such as assign a developer to fix a speed issue or assign a designer to add a meta description to a page. Track the progress of tasks assigned. System will auto mark something done when it detects a task is completed. Just an amazing product in so many ways. Training and certification cannot be beaten. My favorite part of Brightedge is that in the keyword analysis you can find high value, low competition keywords to write about. This helped us attain first page presence for some very high value keywords. We also used their help to start creating pages with Google Schema and had amazing results with that.

Aspetti negativi:

Their onboarding is excellent, yet it still takes some time to get used to the entire system of adding researching and adding keywords, mapping a keyword to a preferred page, and then getting and completing tasks. Once you understand it and get used to how it works, it is awesome. However you have to be extremely committed and spend quite a bit of time on a regular basis to make that happen.

Super great keyword reporting

Aspetti positivi:

The ability to track keywords and monitor their performance and gain insight into trending keyword ideas

Aspetti negativi:

The dashboard can be cluttered and the data reported in data cube can be different than the keyword reporting tool which can be confusing

Holistic SEO Analytics Tool

Commenti: My overall experience with BrightEgde tool has been great when it comes to usability of its interface and the search analytics it provides once the integration with Adobe Analytics tool is successfully implemented. I was able to get quick insights into factors or search signals which are impacting our e-commerce website's organic rankings on Google.com and Bing.com. Based on those insights, I was able to suggest content and internal linking changes to improve product relevant traffic and conversions which lifted the ROI of site.

Aspetti positivi:

Using BrightEdge tool, I was able to analyze organic search campaigns holistically. I was able to compare organic search rankings of the landing pages my copy team optimized the content of to themselves over a period of time as well as to competitor sites' landing pages. Additionally, I was using the tool to understand which keywords have high search volume and potential to convert to drive higher sales. By optimizing landing page organic content and keywords for search engines, I was able to improve roi of e-commerce.

Aspetti negativi:

BrightEdge tool depends on integration with analytics tools such as Adobe or Google to maximize its potential. Unless appropriate connections between those tools are made, BrightEdge won't be able to show the impact of higher organic rankings for specific search keywords on a website's traffic to landing pages and the revenue being generated from it. Additionally, api from Google search console and Adwords are needed to compare how organic search results are trending versus paid search campaigns performance.

Robust Offerings But Complicated

Commenti: I use BrightEdge because one of my SEO clients uses the tool, and while we report and track keywords in BrightEdge because we are asked to by the client , I much prefer SEMrush for everyday research. I will say that BrightEdge support is top notch.

Aspetti positivi:

BrightEdge's trending tool is more effective than Google Trends research—it has some great month-over-month data and the visualization of those changes is easier to view and assess.

Aspetti negativi:

An essential component of any SEO tool is keyword research, and BrightEdge is quite complicated. Once you understand the tool, it's very effective and more powerful than other tools in many ways. But for the ordinary user, SEMrush is far easier to understand. Everything in BrightEdge seems to take an extra step compared to Moz or SEMrush or Ahrefs. Again, you can also dig very deep, but that is beyond what many need from an SEO tool.
