Neil Patel Adds Ubersuggest to his Portfolio

Ranking well in search engines requires using the right keywords in your content. There is a wide range of tools that you could use to find the right keywords for your content. One of the latest entrants in the field is Ubersuggest which was recently acquired by SEO expert and online marketing guru, Neil Patel. The co-founder of successful companies such as Crazy Egg, Quick Sprout, and KISSmetrics, Neil was recognized by President Obama as a top 100 entrepreneur under the age of 30.

Though relatively new, Ubersuggest is quickly becoming on one of the most preferred tools for keyword research as well as SEO/PPC optimization. It is very intuitive and user-friendly and comes with a simple and clutter-free interface which is easy to navigate.

So how does it work?

• Go to https://neilpatel.com/ubersuggest/
• Type in the keyword you want suggestions for in the search box
• Select the source from which you want to get results (web, image, YouTube, news or shopping)
• Choose your preferred language
• Click ‘Look Up’

• In the example above, the term ‘Affiliate Marketing’ generated 856 keyword suggestions. The results show the monthly traffic volume, cost per click (CPC) and the level of competition for each keyword. This information will help you decide if the keyword is worth investing in after all.
•  You can refine your results even further using the filters that come with Ubersuggest

Why are the advantages of using Ubersuggest?

• Search volume – Ubersuggest generates a more comprehensive and extensive list of keywords compared to other tools. The tool even pulls keyword suggestions from Google Keyword Planner and Google Suggest, thus giving you a wider range of options to choose from
• Long-tail keywords – Research has shown that more than 70% of organic traffic comes from long-tail keywords (four or more words in length). Ubersuggest provides more long-tail keywords than any other tool out there. The search term ‘Affiliate Marketing’ generated suggestions such as ‘affiliate marketing for mobile apps’, ‘affiliate marketing business opportunities’, ‘make money with website affiliate marketing’ and ‘building a website for affiliate marketing’.
• Competitor intelligence – Ubersuggest offers competitor intelligence at no cost. You can check out how your competitors are ranking for specific keywords and how much they are spending. This makes it easier to choose keywords that will allow you to outrank them
• Cost considerations – Most popular keyword research tools require users to pay in order to access all the features. For example, the lowest priced plan for Ahrefs and SEMRush costs $99 per month. The good news is that Ubersuggest is absolutely free! You can access all the features without having to pay a cent

Conclusion

With all its great features, Ubersuggest is expected to get even better in future. For example, plans are underway to integrate it with Webmaster Tools and Google Analytics.
