Pros
Overall, Surfer is an awesome tool that we use very often for our important landing pages. Easy to use and effective.
It's very intuitive and there is great support and education which makes it a great experience.
I love how easy the tool is to use: navigation is simple and striking, content creation is a breeze, and the ability to analyze critical keyword and competitive data is unprecedented.
Cons
Occasionally the interface has confused me for a short while.
In the beginning a bit overwhelming / A bit costly if you have a small website with few income.
Quite difficult to properly implement a new text.

Must-have on-page SEO software for any digital agency

Reviewed 3 years ago

We are an SEO agency. Surfer helps discover missing keyword opportunities, not just phrases but also singular words. This has been very helpful for many of our clients, ranging from local small businesses to national medium-sized organizations. Additionally, our top benefit is being able to run an SEO audit using the audit tool and offer a quick and free analysis for potential prospects. We have a general template setup where we focus on the most important elements in the audit ranging from the content score to page speed. Not too many agencies do this at no charge -- we do and it's been bringing us a good amount of business -- all thanks to SurferSEO!

Pros

SERP analyzer. It's a powerful tool featuring a friendly visual interface and many interesting features such as the audit and keyword density tool. Additionally being able to view SERP results based on different geographic locations is very useful.

Cons

In the keyword density tool, they once changed the relevancy descriptions from percentages to low, medium, and high. Thankfully they went back with the original percentages, which are much more accurate.

My #1 SEO Tool for Topic Research and Content Creation

Reviewed 3 years ago

Surfer has been a huge benefit and has changed how we plan content, handle writer assignments, and fine-tune live posts that have started to gain traction.

Pros

Surfer helps me follow a process that I did manually for many years, reviewing the top-ranking articles and ensuring my article is the most complete, without any fluff.

Cons

There's always room for improvement and they're constantly adding new features. One small issue I noticed is that the Chrome extension for Google Docs doesn't play nicely with other sidebars like Grammarly or Docs to Markdown, so I have to disable it to use those.

I find it a decent tool for SEO content writing.

Reviewed 2 months ago

I have mixed reviews for Surfer. While it is good for SERP analysis, including NLPs in content, and cluster planning, it is of no use writing for topics with limited competition. AI humanizer is simply waste of time. It doesn’t do any good to the content. In a nutshell, its a good SEO tool, but you can’t relly heavily on it for all content types.

Pros

Some of Surfer’s recently launched features are pretty good, like topic explorer, keyword cluster planner, audit, and SERP analyzer.

Cons

When I am working on a topic with mixed intent, there isn’t much Surfer can help me with. If there aren’t any good competitors for the topic, it’s pretty much useless.

Vendor response

Hello Ajay, Thank you for sharing your thoughts on Surfer's features! It’s great to hear that you’ve found Topic Explorer, Audit, Keyword Planner and SERP Analyzer useful! We’re constantly aiming to improve, so your feedback on the challenges with mixed intent topics and limited competition is incredibly valuable to us. We're also currently working on enhancing our AI Humanizer. We really appreciate you taking the time to help us get better. Stay tuned for updates, and thanks again for your candid review!

Awesome Software to Help You Surf in the SEO World

Reviewed 3 years ago
Pros

I like that the software is easy to use and filled with actionable tasks. Your competitors wrote more content with more relevant keywords? Well, you know how many words and what keywords to add to your page. I also like the fact that the software keeps evolving to the user's demands. Surfer started as a basic on-page tool which then added content planner, content editor, keyword research, etc. The interface is also easy to understand and looks beautiful. Kudos to the team who can translate complex stuff like SEO into a much simpler product which users can use easily.

Cons

I know that this software is mostly used for on page purpose. However, if in the future, it also integrates more backlink data, it can evolve into a very awesome beast and be the ultimate SEO tool. At the moment, the backlink data is limited but it's not a deal breaker.
