SEO Must-Have!

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Working with DataForSEO has been an awesome experience. It's easy to set up and the data it provides is always accurate and reliable. In addition, the customer service is top-notch with quick responses and helpful troubleshooting tips whenever we had any issues. All in all, I would highly recommend using DataForSEO if you're looking for an API suite to help with your SEO projects.

Pros:

I was impressed by how quickly DataForSEO was able to deliver the SEO data I needed. With just a few clicks, I was able to get access to the Rank tracking API, SERP API, Google keyword planner API and On-page APIs. This saved me a lot of time and stress as I could focus my efforts on other aspects of my SEO project. Overall, it's an incredibly useful software that makes collecting SEO data much easier and more efficient.

Cons:

The most difficult thing about DataForSEO is finding the right documents and tutorials to help you get started. Although the software has all of the features one might need, it can be quite challenging to figure out how they all work together. Also, the price can be hefty depending on your needs.

Stay Ahead of Your Competition in SEO performance with DataForSEO

3.0 2 years ago

Comments: My experience with DataForSEO's products and services has been overwhelmingly positive. Their web-based reporting tools allow us to organize and distribute our SEO data in both a visually appealing and intuitive manner. We've found their pricing for services to be fair as well, which is something that any business can appreciate. In short, it's hard to beat the reliable performance of DataForSEO!

Pros:

As a professional marketer, I found DataForSEO to be invaluable. The software allowed me to access incredibly detailed, real-time data with ease and quickly make decisions that drove my business in the right direction. Its user-friendlyInterface kept me engaged while I worked, which made my job easier and more efficient. Additionally, its affordability gave me the flexibility to get greater insights at a lower cost than other very expensive alternatives. In conclusion, DataForSEO 's accuracy, ease of use and reasonable pricing are some of the reasons why I enjoyed using the software.

Cons:

Overall, DataForSEO software provided satisfactory results for my needs. However, what I liked least was the lack of customer service and technical support. There were several occasions where I had difficulty navigating the system or executing a specific task, but there was no means of having an expert answer any questions I had about the features or how to use them. Additionally, customer service was not great when it came to resolving issues from past usage; in these cases I had to manually seek out the solution online rather than interrogate trained professionals in the field.

Flexibility, performance and cost-effectiveness with a fantastic support team.

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: We are using DataForSEO in our many analysis. Mostly, we are happy with the performance - but the most likable part of DataForSEO is their amazing support. As the API deployment is a case where you need to work with the creators of API to understand the logic, you need to have an agile support. Their support agent are not just the people who redirects issues to product team, they also inivites devs to Intercom chats to fix your problem in a faster way.

Pros:

As a creator of SEO software, we are using DataForSEO in our daily routine for different cases. To make it more cost effective, they have different types of services (live/queue/slow queue) - they are adding new services every quarter. I'm very excited for backlink index.

Cons:

Their pricing module was quite complex in the previous API version (v2) but they have fixed the problem by following v3 API. The only parameter is the credit that we pay for.

Your search for an SEO API ends here

5.0 6 years ago

Pros:

DataForSEO offers high quality APIs for Google ranking checks, keyword and competitor data. The API documentations is very readable and comprehensive. Best of all, everything works as advertised. The customer support is quick and helpful.

Cons:

The competitor data API could return more results and it's a bit expensive. Don't we all wish the pricing was more affordable?

Data similar or exactly the same as AdWords API.

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: Other companies seem to maintain a static database so data is limited. DataForSEO seems to be able to get real-time data.

Pros:

We like that the data seems to come directly from AdWords API. Coverage is great. Keywords that are unavailable in other static databases can return results when it comes to DataForSEO. It almost feels like we were calling AdWords API directly. Quality is well worth the price. Thanks!

Cons:

Even though there are documentation on line, the web page is a bit sluggish and slow. Also, there is a lack of documentation when it comes to simply making a CURL call to the REST API. We didn't want to use the libraries/clients provided. It took a while, but we eventually figured out how to hit the REST API with simple curl (without DataForSEO libraries/clients).

Dataforseo Response

6 years ago

Hi, Joseph! Thank you for your suggestions! New docs engine and additional samples with CURL will be released very soon. Hope it will simplify the process of testing of our APIs.
