No man is an island.

You can’t succeed if you go through life alone.

It’s always better to get help from others. They not only make your life much fuller, but they also help you achieve your goals faster and live happier.

The same applies to blogging and marketing. You can’t grow your blog traffic if you write for yourself and don’t promote to your intended audience. For those seeking work from home opportunities, finding effective ways to promote their content becomes even more crucial.

I know what you’re thinking:

“But promoting my content sucks!”

“Reaching out to people is a time-suck and robs my time for doing other important things for my blog!”

You know what? You’re probably right.

Promoting your blog is an arduous task that sucks out the creativity from your blogging bones. It’s something that you’d rather assign to a VA but can’t because you don’t have enough money.

Therefore, to succeed, you must find a way around this problem, like a stealthy ninja unleashing an attack when their opponents least expect it.

You need to promote your blog content effectively, if not reach out to Instagram influencers in your niche, to fast-track your blog’s success without giving away much of your time and money.

You need Ninja Outreach.

What is Ninja Outreach?

In a nutshell, it is an influencer marketing software and a great one at that. To call it otherwise is a disservice to what the tool can help you with as a blogger.

In layman’s terms, NinjaOutreach is a prospecting tool that easily helps you find influencers to reach out in your industry. The core feature of the tool is the ability to make the prospecting process much more convenient for bloggers. What you do with the prospects is what makes it truly useful.

Once you have generated the contact details using this tool, you can perform any of the tasks from the screenshot above. You can then schedule sending emails to your target influencers so you can connect with them and open doors for you to build relationships with them.

As a blogger, you will find a lot of uses for the tactics above to help grow your blog’s traffic and conversion rate!

How to Use Ninja Outreach

As an influencer tool, Ninja Outreach is primarily used for blogger outreach campaigns. The tool is perfect for the job if you want to drive blog traffic and reach out to bloggers and influencers in your niche. If you’re unfamiliar with how blogger outreach works, click here to visit the page I wrote about the basics of this tactic.

If you’re well-versed with blogger outreach, then the software will help make it much easier and more convenient for you. Below are the main functions of the tool and how you can use them to launch your entire outreach campaign from the platform.

Blogging prospecting

Once you’ve created an account (you can start here by signing up for a 14-day trial), you can start searching for prospects by typing on the search bar.

Normally, you’d start searching for your topic in the bar since you want to find people related to your niche. For example, typing “content marketing” in the field will yield these results:

The results bring you to the Content Prospecting feature of the tool. It returns websites that are most relevant to the keyword phrase you entered. A website, while not an influencer, can be considered a prospect if you want to write guest posts on different blogs, for instance.

When you search for influencers, type in your seed keyword and not your long tail keyword like the ones you find on digital marketing tools like Long Tail Pro. Seed keywords are broader in scope, which provides you with more results of influencers to choose from.

This feature is similar to what Social Animal has. But what’s cool about the software is it easily shows you the different factors to help you determine a website’s authority. If you want to write guest posts, then you should refer to the site’s SEO Metrics. While guest posting is not primarily an SEO tactic, writing for sites that search engines love can help funnel some of that love to your site. Therefore, choosing sites with high DA (domain authority) and lots of backlinks can go a long way in your guest blogging strategy.

If you find sites with similar SEO metrics scores, you can use other factors to break the tie. For example, referring to a site’s Traffic and Engagement will help you find sites that will drive the most comments and eyeballs to your post.

Another factor you must consider when looking for sites to submit your guest post is the Features column. It says here if the site or blog is currently looking for guest posts or sponsored content. However, some of the results have no entries under Features. It may be better to visit the site and see if they are accepting manually.

If the results returned hundreds and thousands of sites, you could filter them to show only specific figures for each factor. Filtering the results that help you find sites that meet your criteria so you don’t have to sift through each page manually.

Twitter and Instagram influencer research

The Social Prospecting feature helps you find influencers on Twitter and Instagram. The idea is to piggyback on the popularity of influencers in your related niches. Once you’ve acquired their social media information, you can follow and engage with them on social media. Ultimately, you want to build relationships with them and get help with promoting your blog.

Click on the Social Prospecting tab and enter your keyword on the search bar. For the best results, enter the topic of your niche to get the most relevant bloggers and influencers to target.

Once you’ve entered the keyword, you will see the different influencers. You can filter the results based on location, followers, and website.

Like the Content Prospector, you can filter the tags to show specific influencers. You can focus on looking for bloggers, influencers, executives, companies, and journalists. You can also set the minimum number of followers to target influencers with lots of followers.

Contact management

The List Management will show you the different lists you have created using the tool’s prospecting feature.

Once you have chosen the sites and bloggers, and influencers you want to target with your outreach campaign, click on Save List.

You can add the chosen sites/influencers to an existing list or create a new one. Once you have finalized the selection, you can review each entry by clicking on the Your Prospects tabs and opening the list.

On this part, you can change the relationship of each entry once you’ve reached out to them by following them on social media or emailing them for a sponsored post. There are lots of stages to choose from in the relationship drop-down menu. As a result, the software works as a CRM tool to help you define which relationship stage you are with your contact details.

If you want to update your contacts’ profile, click on the edit button and update as you see fit.

You can also follow them on Twitter by clicking on the Twitter button if you haven’t yet. If you want to reach out to them via email address, click the paper plane button to send them one.

This influencer outreach software can manage your leads and sales process. Assign your sales team to qualify prospects and send them emails from your collection of email templates. Doing so lets you automate your sales process and frees up your time to focus on more important matters.

Outreach campaign launch

As mentioned earlier, the core feature of the software is to send emails to your contacts and build relationships with them. The Manage Templates open the door to different possibilities for reaching out to your leads and contacts.

After clicking on the Manage Templates tab, click on the Create Template button.

The email templates help beginners to get acquainted with blogger outreach. Clicking on the Load a Pre-Written Template from the drop-down menu gives you access to many email templates, from blog post promotions to conversation invites.

However, you need to edit the templates to make them more personalized before sending them out. After choosing a template, it’s best to edit the email to communicate your messages more efficiently.

Once you have edited the template, save it as a brand new template. You can use the edited template to send it to the appropriate list.

Now, this is where Ninja Outreach shines.

The Outreach Mode easily automates the process by scheduling the email outreach program to be sent to your contacts. You can send hundreds and thousands of emails to your target list with just a few clicks. Once you’ve set up the options, you can only wait for their replies and continue the conversation.

Once you’ve clicked on the Outreach Mode tab, click on the Schedule Autosending button if you’ve finalized your list and the email template.

On the settings, you can limit the emails sent in a day to decrease your chances of getting penalized. Although the maximum of 200 emails is safe enough, you can reduce the volume to control your email frequency.

As mentioned, you can schedule when the emails will be sent. Spread them out as you wish to manage the emails sent to your contacts properly.

Lastly, you can add follow-ups using this email outreach program if the recipients haven’t replied yet. This option is a great way to touch base with your contacts and remind them about your message. There’s a chance that they forgot your initial email.

Customer service

It should no longer be a surprise if customer support happens to be one of the best factors of a tool or software. What differentiates most companies nowadays is how they treat customers and how customers feel about them. A positive experience can go a long way – it could even turn fair-weather users into loyal and returning customers.

Throughout the years as a freelance writer and marketer, the software has had one of the best customer support teams I’ve come across with.  My introduction to Ninja Outreach started with me receiving a free account to play around with from their support team two years ago. I was able to extend my account throughout the years

Another positive encounter I had with Ninja Outreach’s support team was when I was asking for help to improve my affiliate partnership with them. I asked for ideas on improving my affiliate links’ performance, and they were quick to reply with suggestions.

While none of the emails is related to how the tool works, the team answered my emails promptly and provided the information I was looking for.

NinjaOutreach Pricing

Ninja Outreach’s price point increased through the years.

Their most affordable package was around $389/month ($649/month for the Pro plan). While the software wasn’t the cheapest back then, it even got more expensive now.

You gain access to Instagram influencers (that wasn’t available before), Twitter users, bloggers, and business emails for your outreach campaigns.

To cut costs using this software, you can pay annually and drop the price to $155/month ($259/month for Pro).

NinjaOutreach Reviews

Pros and cons

Pros: An all-inclusive marketing tool for bloggers

Ninja Outreach can do everything you can expect from a blogging tool.

Aside from blogger outreach and CRM, you can use the software to create better content by filtering content with the most shares about a specific topic.

In many ways, it is similar to Buzzsumo regarding purpose and use. That’s why you see many “Buzzsumo vs. Ninja Outreach” comparisons.

However, the ability to conduct email outreach makes Ninja Outreach arguably better than Buzzsumo. The wealth of options also separates the tool from similar tools like Buzzstream.

Con: Loads too slow for my tastes

Compared to other outreach tools, its chock of choices makes it bulky, probably due to the slow loading time.

I tried loading hundreds of emails from a CSV file to Ninja Outreach, and it took too long to get the list on the platform, so I had to stop it.

I’m not sure if it’s an isolated case, but it hampers the overall experience of using the tool if it doesn’t provide a seamless UX experience.

Pro: Excellent customer support

It has a very accommodating and friendly support team that sincerely wants the best for you as a customer. My encounters with them have been nothing but positive, and I can’t help but feel valued by the software in general.

Con: Some of the features feel half-baked 

Social Prospecting doesn’t offer many insights about an influencer – the data can easily be seen with a simple Twitter search.

The Content Prospecting could have been helpful as a tool. However, most of the results are Web 2.0 sites. If you want to write guest posts, most results will not be much help.

Also, influencers don’t use Web 2.0 sites to publish their content.

Despite its shortcomings, I’m not ready to write off this feature yet.

The SEO Metrics and Traffic and Engagement indicate a site’s authority and make it very easy for bloggers to filter the good sites from the bad.

If the tool improves this feature, I could see it as a game-changer.

Verdict

That said, I sincerely feel that it is strong enough as a tool alone to be considered for purchase. If you’re not convinced, you can sign up for its  14-day free trial* and get your hands dirty with the tool.

Great content starts with error-free and grammatically correct writing. But it’s hard to keep track of your writing, especially if you have other things to worry about, i.e., publishing, promoting, etc. Grammarly Premium helps you by automatically detecting writing errors that you can fix with a click of a button!

But before we begin with this review, let’s identify the things that I look for in a grammar-checking tool to measure how good it is:

• Usability – Is it easy to use? Can it be used on different platforms or devices?
• Proofreading – Does it spot grammar mistakes and provide the correct suggestions effectively?
• Productivity – Does it help me improve my writing?

Also, to clarify, I am not reviewing the free version of Grammarly. Instead, I am examining the paid version of Grammarly, which is Grammarly Premium.

Now we have those things out of the way, let’s dive straight into the burning question:

What do you get with Grammarly Premium?

First, let’s focus on the available features of the Grammarly Premium tool.

Insights

The Document Insights feature allows you to crunch the numbers and raw data about the article.

Depending on your goals for the article, you’ll have your hands complete with the information found here. Personally, the Readability section is the most important one here.

It shows you how easy or difficult to read your article is.

Update Goals

Choose the type of document you are writing about for the tool to edit your content accordingly. Every time you start, the General document type is chosen. If you want a specific type to be used, you can select from Academic, Business, Technical, Medical, Creative, and Casual.

For example, suppose you chose Business > Article/Blog post option. In that case, Grammarly will detect contractions (you’re, I’m, and others) and misused commas to help tighten your article so your document will capture the writing style you want.

You need to refine your goals to help Grammarly Premium give you a more accurate score. By targeting the right intent, audience, style, and emotion for your article, the tool can help you produce the best article better.

This is one of the best features of the tool. Grammarly Premium assists you in writing a personalized article or content based on the type of document you want to achieve. So whether it’s writing a thesis, technical document, or a personal blog post, the paid version of Grammarly has covered you!

Premium Alerts

For paid users, they can further improve their articles about these grammar and spelling variables:

• Punctuation – Corrects missing and misused punctuation
• Conventions – Checks spacing, capitalization, and dialect-specific spelling
• Formality – Checks for appropriate formality level
• Conciseness – Eliminates wordiness and redundancy
• Clarity – Identifies confusing sentences and overlong paragraphs
• Variety – Provides synonyms for repeated words
• Vocabulary – Replaces weak words with more precise synonyms

While the grammar and punctuation errors spotted in the premium alerts aren’t crucial, the little things affect the article’s quality. This spell checker tool makes your job much easier as a result.

Plagiarism

Turning this on lets you see if your document or the document you are editing has been plagiarized from an online source without proper attribution. Grammarly Premium’s built-in plagiarism checker scans your document and runs it through 8 billion pages online.

Once it spots a plagiarized text, its built-in Citation Generation will create the citation for you using three styles — MLA, APA, and Chicago. So even if you do not know the citation format for your paper, Grammarly has got you covered!

Human proofreader

If you’re not confident with the article and are not satisfied with how you edited it, you can ask for help from an actual proofreader.

While this is an extra cost on top of your Premium subscription, it’s worth every penny if you want to get your article edited and maintain its readability for humans.

How to use Grammarly Premium

There are three ways that you can use this tool for your writing:

1. Chrome Extension
2. Browser version
3. Native Grammarly app
4. Microsoft Word add-on

Grammarly Chrome Extension

Once you download this extension for your Google Chrome, you can enjoy its features while browsing online. In addition, the extension will aid you in writing from your email provider, like Gmail.

Upon clicking on the red dot at the bottom-right side of the window, you will open the editor within Chrome.

The extension also works on blogging sites like WordPress, Tumblr, and Blogger, as well as other sites where you can enter text.

If you prefer using Mozilla Firefox, there is also a Grammarly add-on, which works the same way as the Chrome extension.

Grammarly Online Editor

If you want to edit your article straight from Grammarly, you need to log in to your Grammarly account from the website.

Once you log in, you can start with a new document, edit existing ones you have uploaded or saved, or export the articles kept in the app to your hard drive.

When you click on the document icon to write a new post, you will be directed to a minimalist text editor.

This is a great place to write your article and focus on the content without being distracted by the different features of your usual word processor.

If you have an existing article that you want to edit with spelling errors and such, you can upload it and spot spelling mistakes automatically.

If links and images are featured in your article, they will not show on the Grammarly editor. However, you can reaccess them when you download the article after editing it.

When editing the article, click on the “Correct with Assistant” button on the top-right green button of the screen.

Once you’ve fixed the article, download the file, and you will see that the changes will appear as comments from Grammarly.

If you are an editor, you may want to keep the comments so your writer can see the changes made in the article. For professional writers and bloggers, you can delete all the comments at once from your word processor and send the post to your client or blog.

Native Grammarly Desktop app

You can download the native app for Windows if you prefer running Grammarly Premium as a separate program. The program takes up approximately 46MB of your hard drive, has the same UI, and feels like the browser version.

Microsoft Office add-on

You can edit your articles using the paid version of Grammarly straight from Microsoft Word. Then, you only need to download the add-on file from the site.

Unfortunately, I have not tried Grammarly on Microsoft Word because I use WPS Writer as my word processor. More on this later.

Google Docs

You’re in for a treat if you write your articles on Google Docs. Grammarly now supports editing straight from the writing tool.

The problematic words and phrases are underlined in red. Hover your mouse to see the suggestions and make the corrections.

Currently, the Google Docs feature of Grammarly is still in beta, which explains the limited options available. Over time, however, we may see improvements until it fully integrates with the software. I’m just happy that the feature now exists since I’m a heavy Google Docs user.

Grammarly Business

If you have more than three writers on your team (including yourself) and want to ensure that all writers enjoy the benefits provided by Grammarly, then the Business plan is for you.

Using Grammarly Business allows you to create a tone profile and style guide that will be implemented across all members. This way, all written content by your team will be uniform, creating consistency that clients look up among writing teams.

Prices start at $15/month per member. It decreases to $14.5/month for 10-49 members and $12.5/month for 50-149 members.

Is Grammarly Premium worth the price?

Grammarly Premium is a paid writing software that you can buy for the following plans:

• Monthly – $29.95 (billed again after a month)
• Quarterly – $19.98/ month (billed as one payment of USD 59.95 for four months)
• Annually – $11.66/ month (billed as one payment of USD 139.95, good for one year)

If you think the features I discussed above will be helpful for you, then Grammarly Premium is definitely worth the price!

Personally, the Grammarly’s cost is well worth every cent because it establishes grammar rules for me to follow, resulting in me writing consistent articles and posts for my clients.

However, let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

It’s best to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using this tool based on what we’ve discussed.

Pros and cons

Now that we have the main features, let’s take a quick look at using Grammarly Premium to improve your writing.

PRO: Helpful for non-native English writers

While I pride myself on providing great content in English as a non-native speaker, there are still spelling errors that slip through the cracks.

The mistakes may not be as crucial considering the meat of the content, but I take pride in my job. So every error is a chink in my armor.

With Grammarly Premium, I can correct my mistakes and provide clients with impeccable content writing services.

PRO: Saves time in checking your posts

If you are a freelance writer, the last thing you want to do is review the article you just finished writing for mistakes.

Before doing this, you may need to step out and take a breather or sleep on it to have a fresh and well-rested set of eyes that can spot errors.

However, imagine the hours and days you wasted by taking a break or sleeping on the article when you could have sent the report to your client or site for review.

Therefore, instead of running through your post again, Grammarly Premium will spot possible errors for you as you write your post. Then, you can click on the most appropriate suggestions or edit accordingly.

Also, Grammarly Premium boasts of spotting 250 grammatical mistakes in a document. I’m not completely sure what those mistakes are, as no list on their website reveals this (and rightfully so). However, the grammatical mistakes are organized under five categories:

• Contextual Spelling
• Grammar
• Punctuation
• Sentence Structure
• Style

PRO: Makes editing a breeze

If you are an editor, Grammarly Premium will spot the errors for you! Better yet, you can upload the written work on Grammarly and download a detailed report of the writer’s errors and their cumulative score.

Use the score as the basis for grading their writing performance.

This is perfect if you have yet to set editorial guidelines in place for your writers to follow. While you are working on that, Grammarly will serve as a more than capable guidelines system for computing the readability of the articles using different factors.

If you want to edit the article using Grammarly, all you need to do is hover over the suggestions in green and click on them to apply the changes.

You will not have to type out the suggestions; you can edit the article by clicking on them.

You can undo the change and revert to the old word or phrase if you mistakenly clicked on the suggestion.

If you are editing content based on style, the tool lets you choose the kind of style for your article so it can spot errors based on the style you chose to provide you with better suggestions.

Of course, I do not suggest you rely solely on Grammarly Premium to edit articles. You still need to check and see if the suggestions are acceptable to a human reader. But more on that later.

CON: Vocabulary enhancement suggestions are inconsistent

The vocabulary enhancements feature is a hit or miss. It suggests synonyms for overused words and phrases. As a result, the feature offers some awkward suggestions at times.

I understand that the enhancements are suggestions for a reason — you do not have to follow them if you do not feel that they provide a better alternative for the overused word or phrase. However, this is also why you still need to edit the article your way instead of completely relying on Grammarly Premium for spotting and correcting the errors.

CON: Add-on not available to other word processors

Grammarly Premium is available to Microsoft Word only as an add-on. However, if you prefer using a different word processor like WPS Writer or Open Office, you won’t be able to enjoy Grammarly Premium as much.

While this issue may be a minor quibble, this could drive other writers away from using Grammarly Premium.

Grammarly Review: Verdict

Video summary created using InVideo.

So, what do I think of this version of Grammarly? using the criteria mentioned earlier, below is an abridged version of the review about this editing tool:

In this Netpeak Checker review, you will learn everything you need to know about this URL analyzer tool.

This isn’t your usual SEO tool, mind you.

If you want to break down every URL you come across with using different SEO parameters to help you make an informed decision for your campaign, then this is for you!

Great content? Check.

Fast-loading site? Check.

Impressive backlink profile? Check.

Despite observing the best SEO practices, you still find your site at the bottom of the pile.Why is that?

Hours spent on doing all these things, all for nothing.

This is probably you right now:

via GIPHY

SEO is so competitive nowadays that your site will barely make a dent in your industry despite how optimized your site is. Tried-and-true tactics no longer work in general – you need something new and fresh to maximize your results of your efforts.

In fact, a simple tweak to help you boost your site’s organic search performance matters. It’s not about the depth of the tactic you will implement. Sometimes, even the smallest changes in your current SEO approach can make the biggest impact.

Therefore, instead of thinking big, why not think granular?

For example, instead of looking at a page as a whole, why not analyze the page using the different factors that govern organic search?

This reason is why you probably need Netpeak Checker in your SEO arsenal more than ever.

Why do you need to analyze URLs?

When analyzing a URL of a page, whether it’s from your site or competitors’, you probably look at it from a user’s perspective. You look at how fast it loads, how informative the content is, and how easy the presentation of the content is to the eyes.

At the same time, you also want to balance that viewpoint from the perspective of a search spider.

I’m aware that it’s best to think like a human when it comes to building your site pages if you want them to rank on Google search for your target keywords. By creating content that people will find helpful, you can attract more site traffic and retain them to browse other pages on your site.

However, you want search spiders also to love your site. That means:

• Looking at your site’s backlink profile (same with your competitors!)
• Analyze your site’s social media performance (while social media has no direct effect on SEO, your performance in this channel is considered a social signal, which could have an indirect effect on your organic ranking)
• Compare pages based on SEO parameters of well-known services (Moz’s Domain Authority, Majestic’s Trust Flow and Citation Flow, and more)
• Evaluate competitors based on different SEO factors and see how you fare against them (also shows you what you need to improve on)
• and more!

Having this data at your disposal allows you to dig deeper into your SEO campaign. It’s probably more work, but as mentioned earlier, a potential change in your strategy for the better could be the difference from last to first place on organic search rankings.

What is Netpeak Checker?

Netpeak Checker is a mass SEO analysis tool developed by Netpeak Software.

While as crucial as analyzing URLs is, the actual process of doing so is a royal pain in the ass.

To analyze a page, you must use different tools to unearth the other SEO metrics. For example, to find its Domain Ranking, you’ll need to log in to your Moz account to find the score there. You need to log in to Majestic for the Trust and Citation Flows.

In other words, you will have to cross-check with reliable tools to find the data you need to determine the SEO factors of a URL. A single URL could take over an hour to get all the data required for your SEO research. If you’re to include the other URLs to review, it’ll probably take you weeks and months to fetch all the data before you can fully conduct your analysis!

With Netpeak Checker, you can review as many pages as you want and SEO factors as possible with a click of a button. From here, all you need to do is sit back and relax, as the tool will do the heavy lifting for you.

Instead of the weeks and months of struggling with each URL, Netpeak Checker can help you analyze hundreds of URLs and data in minutes!

How to Use Netpeak Checker

There are many uses for Netpeak Checker as part of your SEO strategy. Here are some to get you started:

• Find sites to submit guest posts
• Analyze your (or competitors’) backlink profile
• Determine how optimized your site pages are and get an overview of your overall site performance

For the sake of this example, let’s do the third way on how to use Netpeak Checker.

Launching the tool

Once you subscribe to an account, download and open Netpeak Checker from your desktop. The tool is currently available for Windows users only, but they’ll make it available to Mac OS and Linux users soon.

The tool will take some time to load on your computer and sync with the online database. The speed depends on your hardware specs as well as your internet connection.

Netpeak also developed Netpeak Spider, which is similar to Screaming Frog SEO Spider. I could probably review this tool in the future if all goes well (Netpeak, I’m looking at you 🙂 )

Click on the Start button to launch Netpeak Checker.

Before starting a project, you want to determine the parameters that the tool will fetch from each URL you enter. Netpeak Checker can review over 1,200+ parameters (!!!) related to SEO. While you can use all parameters as you wish, you need to focus on only the most important and influential factors to help make it easier for you.

Choosing and setting up the parameters

Most of the parameters that you can gather from Netpeak Checker are free. Below are some of the ones that you should use when analyzing your URLs:

• On-page – Get down and dirty with multiple parameters to choose from under this category. Aside from the usual on-page factors (title, description, subheadings, etc.), you can also see content download time, content size, and links to social media sites to help you better understand the page’s SEO.
• Google SERP – You want to check how the URLs appear on search results by checking on the Title and Description under URL parameters. If you’re checking on homepage URLs, you may want to consider finding out the page’s indexed URLs, related pages, and site links under host parameters.
• Bing SERP – Bing could bring value to your site as the second-largest search engine in the market. You can analyze the page based on URL parameters only.
• Alexa – Global Rank is a good enough parameter to help you determine how your site stacks up to sites all over the world. If you want to focus on your performance locally, then choose Local Rank instead.
• Social shares – Find out pages with the most shares on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Stumbleupon.

To see the different parameters you can check using Netpeak Checker and the explanation for each, click here.

You can easily set up the parameters for your project by clicking on them at the left side of the dashboard.

While these parameters will help you dig deeper into the SEO performance of each URL on your list, you’ll need better data than. I’m referring to the ones provided by third-party services like Moz, Majestic, SEMrush, and others.

However, to gain access to these parameters, you need to enter the access token and other details from those sites into Netpeak Checker.

Accessing premium parameters

Click on Settings > General from the menu bar. A new window will open that will show you the parameters that you need access tokens to access.

Unless you’re subscribed to Ahrefs, Semrush, Serpstat, and others or at least have an access to their respective API/access token, I’m afraid you won’t be able to use them as part of your analysis.

However, it’s not a total waste because you can still gain access to Moz’s data from here.

While Domain Authority (DA) is only an approximation of how Google views a page, it’s still one of the most sought-after parameters in SEO. The higher the DA, the more authoritative the site is. So, if you want to determine how valuable a page, you should track its DA to get an idea.

Click on the Moz API link to visit the page to get your Access ID and Secret Key. You must be logged in to your Moz account first before going to this page.

A new window on your browser will open. Click on the Dashboard link on the upper right part of the page.

Once on the Moz API Dashboard, click the Access tab to show you the details you need to enter on Netpeak Checker.

Enter these details, and you’re set to go!

Note: If you plan on running lots of pages using lots of parameters, then you should consider using an anti-captcha and HTTP proxies from this page. Both will help you gather data efficiently without entering CAPTCHA or getting flagged by Google for asking multiple requests at a time.

Running a project

Now that you have the parameters in place, you need to enter your URLs now.

Since we want to simply get an overview of your site’s SEO performance, you can run a quick Google search using the search operator “site:”domainname.com” to unearth the links.

Before conducting your search, make sure that your search will deliver 100 results (maximum) so you can gather more pages for each query from Google.

For the sake of example, we’ll use the search operator to get the indexed pages from QuickSprout.

To download the URLs, download and activate the Mozbar to export the URLs into a CSV file.

Once the extension is activated, you will see the Export icon on the upper left-hand corner of the page. Click on that.

You will be able to download a CSV file of the first 100 results of all the indexed Quicksprout pages on Google.

Open the file and copy all the Quicksprout links on column B of the sheet.

Copy the links and go to Netpeak Checker to paste the URLs. Click on List of URLs > Enter manually and paste there and click Add.

Once you’re ready, click on the Start button. Depending on the parameters you will be using, it could take a few minutes to an hour. In the meantime, you can use your computer for other tasks as the tool continues to gather information for your project.

When the report is finished, you will receive a message at the bottom-right corner of your page.

Analyzing the data

Now that you have the data from Netpeak Checker, it’s time to crunch the numbers and see how you want to improve Quicksprout’s SEO performance.

Here are questions that you want to ask yourself in reference to the report:

• Do your pages with titles and descriptions over 65 and 160 characters, respectively? Metadata that exceeds the suggested characters will be truncated from SERPs, which could lower your CTR. It’s best if you could shorten them so you could display the pages better.
• Are your pages loading more than four seconds? 1 second is equivalent to 1000 milliseconds which is the metric used in Netpeak Checker. If your page loads more than 4000 ms under Content Download Time, then you need to find a way to decrease the loading time. You can also use the Content Size parameter for reference. Decreasing the Content Size by compressing the images and removing Javascript is the best way to go.
• Which pages have the highest shares? Find out the pages with the most social shares on a specific channel (Facebook, Twitter, etc.). You may consider updating the pages (if they’ve been published years ago) and re-promote them to the same channel where they got lots of shares to replicate your success.
• Which pages have the highest Page Authority (PA)? This parameter from Moz allows you to determine the value of each page. You could use this information to help you spread your link juice to pages with low Page authority. For example, from your page with a high PA, link out to related internal pages with low PA to make your link juice flow to these pages.

These are just some of the many things you can do with the data gathered by Netpeak Checker. Depending on the applicable parameters you can use for any purpose you have in mind, you should be able to dig deeper with your SEO strategy by spending less time gathering data and more time developing and implementing a sustainable SEO campaign!

The pros and cons of this tool

PROS: Time-saving SEO tool

As mentioned, Netpeak Checker allows you to unearth massive amounts of data for lots of URLs in minutes, if not seconds. You don’t need to fill out a data entry or VA position to help you manually sort out the URLs using your preferred parameters. Simply run the tool and gather the data instantly. You can then focus on more important matters, such as refining your SEO strategy to increase your site’s SEO performance.

CONS: Doesn’t provide access to premium parameters

The available parameters are decent enough to help you analyze the on-page SEO performance of each site. However, if you want to get better parameters such as search traffic, total backlinks, and others, you will have to subscribe to paid SEO tools first and get their data (with the exception of Moz.)

Also, most of the tools can go as high as $69/month, which could be too pricey for some. Therefore, you’re left with parameters that are publicly available and doesn’t give you better insights into the SEO data of each URL.

This is not a knock on Netpeak Checker as it is a great tool and offers good parameters to help you establish your baseline. My suggestion is that Netpeak could hopefully offer the tool with access to the APIs and access tokens of the premium SEO tools, even if it means hiking up the price. I think this would be helpful to all Netpeak Checker users and will definitely put it up there as a must-use tool.

PROS: Good price point

For $19/month, Netpeak checker is definitely an affordable tool. It’s not a turnkey SEO solution like SEMrush or Ahrefs, but what it does, it does great and it reflects on the pricing. As a complementary tool to your SEO strategy, the tool is something that SEO experts would be willing to pay for.

CONS: Annoying start-up process

It’s ironic that a time-saving tool can be slow and bulky at the same time, and yet Netpeak Checker manages to be exactly both.

Opening the tool feels like a drag at times. Unlike cloud-based apps, you don’t have to wait for the data to sync with your computer. Netpeak Checker not only makes you wait by syncing the data online but also brings you to a splash page that shows both Netpeak Checker and Spider. I only bought Netpeak Checker, so I shouldn’t see Netpeak Spider when opening the tool.

I understand that showing Netpeak Spider is their way of upselling the tool to Netpeak Checker. However, the fact that you keep seeing it makes the entire experience disruptive from a user experience standpoint.
