SEO Competitor Analysis Checklist

    Understanding your competitors - their strategy, their tactics, their level of success, etc. is crucial to the success of your SEO initiatives. I am not just talking about your traditional competitors, I am referring to the other sites occupying spots in the SERPs (search engine results pages) for keywords that you are targeting.

     Many free competitive analysis tools are out there, but you have to know where to look for them. Here are some of the SEO tools that I use for competitive analysis and what I specifically use them for:

• URL Checker - To check saturation (Number of pages indexed)
• Link Checker, Yahoo Site Explorer - To check link popularity and review inbound links
• Alexa - To check Alexa Rank and review traffic trends on someone's site
• Keyword Ranking Tool - To track positions in the SERPs

SEO Competitor Checklist that covers the following:

1. Identifying broad and niche competitors to analyze
2. Onsite competitive analysis (keywords, content and technical analysis)
3. Offsite competitive analysis (backlinks, link building strategy)
4. Competitor surveillance (keeping tabs on their SEO strategy)

    Competitor analysis for SEO is much more valuable than people realize. You should think of it as free marketing insight as to how your SEO campaign could perform. Think about it. In some cases these companies have invested thousands of dollars in their SEO, and with the right analysis, you could see what is working and what you shouldn’t waste your time on.

    For any successful online business, a significant presence in search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN is a must. At Levonsys we Optimize your website and Increase the traffic. We make your website appear in the top positions in the results of major Search Engines.
