"Next generation technology at an affordable price"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

Clearscope finds the central points that need to be covered for any subject to be considered comprehensive. The list of keywords it generates saves me an hour or more of research on every article I write.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

The interface can cause you to unintentionally run a report when you meant to check a keyword. That said, the team is really good to work with on any problems like this.

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is enhancing the quality and the speed at which we generate content. It has also made it easy to revamp content on older sites that were underperforming or outdated.

"Fantastic tool for optimizing SEO"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

My favorite part of the Clearscope is the integration with Google Docs. As a freelancer, I use Google Docs as my primary writing tool, as I can easily give access to anyone I'm working with. With Clearscope, I don't need to write directly into Clearscope, as it has a built-in integration with Google docs. I can leave it running, and as I work, see my SEO stats, suggested keywords, and more, in real-time, helping me bump up my SEO score as I go.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

I really can't think of many downsides, as Clearscope is very thorough, and helps me get a great SEO and readability score. Sometimes it can be hard to edit the keywords you want to use; for example, if writing a product review, Clearscope may recommend mentioning a competitor that I don't want to name. That's a minor issue though, and overall, I really enjoy using Clearscope for my content.

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a freelancer writing for major publications, often with detailed product reviews, buyer's guides, and more, SEO is critical to make sure the sites get traffic. WordPress and other websites have some nice SEO tools, but since I freelance I'm often working in Google Docs. I love using the Clearscope extension in Google docs to keep an eye on keywords and readability in real-time.

"The best SEO content tool on the market"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

Clearscope is an excellent tool if you're looking to improve your overall SEO page rank. Its very intuitive, and the customer support is second to none.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

Not much I dislike, although I think the WordPress plugin should allow users to import newly optimized content directly into the WP page editor.

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

Optimizing our written page content with relevant keywords to improve overall ranking.

"Best of the bunch by a mile"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

The UI is so intuitive and it offers so much more than just a keyword search. Other tools I have used sem like a sledgehammer whereas this is a finely tuned scapel to find the exact information you need.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

Trying to understand the difference in the terms. Queries, terms, themes, but that's more my naivety than the tool

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

Understanding SEO, it's not a dark art. Tools like this outstrip others we have used.

"+187% Face Lift for Our Blog Strategy in 2021"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

Thanks to Clearscope and their team of content marketing experts, we were able to effortlessly start using a new tool in-house that contributed heavily to our recent success. Being able to produce a simple, collaborative report with all of the keywords and data included that I can easily share with writers AND achieve such high success was beyond my wildest expectations!

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

The only thing that is tricky is figuring out which keywords to go after. We have the basic subscription, but they offer keyword analysis for the next tier up which we may explore in the future.

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

Since the start of 2021, Clearscope has helped Flytographer reach a 187% increase in page views on our blog compared to 2020. We have ranked for keywords in our niche, appearing on the SERP for more than a handful of search queries targeted through using this software.

"Makes on-page SEO a breeze"

Nothing negative to report, Clearscope is a great tool to use!

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

"No tool other makes SEO this enjoyable"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

SEO advice and tools are full of scams vs. substance, but from day 1, it was very clear that Clearscope is based on real research. After using it consistently for six months, we've seen our ranked keywords more than double, and our organic traffic has quadrupled quarter-over-quarter. Their onboarding is very comprehensive, and just in general, the tool is straightforward to use.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

The cost could be prohibitive for a small startup at first glance, but the tool has paid dividends for us – well worth it.

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is increasing our organic traffic.

"An important tool for delivering value to my clients"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

Clearscope simplifies the keyword research process, as well as briefing and outlining SEO content. It would take me hours to do myself what it does in mere minutes. I can trust the data to guide my writers to create useful content that addresses search intent and ranks in relevant search. The user interface is simple and easy to use — new team members get used to it very quickly without a lot of training needed.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

It's not cheap but when you're creating content at scale, it's easy to justify the price.

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

Clearscope helps me brief, outline, and optimize drafted content. This saves me hours of time when working with my team of writers and editors.

"I fell in love with Clearscope the first time I used it, got my own account, and never looked back."
What do you like best about Clearscope?

I've been a Clearscope user and beta tester for little over a year now. I bounced around between a few different competing tools until I used Clearscope with an enterprise client of mine (they had a corporte account). I quickly fell in love with so many things: 1. Ease of use: the UI is intuitive and simple. I've trained many writers on Clearscope with a 5-minute Loom video. 2. The technology behind it: Clearscope has a specific method towards optimizing content that helps uncover new keywords and write more comprehensive pieces. 3. The growth in organic traffic: Clearscope helped me refresh one article that brings in around $2 million in traffic value each quarter. I don't think we would have ranked for highly competitive keywords without Clearscope's recommendations and insights. After using Clearscope with that one client, I got my own account for my other clients. I don't publish a piece of content without running it through Clearscope anymore. I've even started using it for long-form landing pages and have seen improvements in rankings for target keywords. Clearscope is always working to improve their software. It's backed by an incredible team and customer support that never lets you down. If you ever have a question about the tool or SEO in general, they are always there to help.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

The only drawback about Clearscope for some is the price. Some small businesses and newer freelance writers and marketers may find it expensive. I have zero complaints about the tool's functionality. It's been the best optimization software I've used to date.

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

I started using Clearscope to optimize underperforming content on a client's blog. I've realized over time the tool can be used for so much more than content refreshing. It can help you uncover search intent, find trending keywords, and plan new content also.

"Clearscope review"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

Clearscope saves me countless hours in research and writer management. The team is always innovating and adding new features also, from outline generation to Wordpress and google plugins.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

While I feel that Clearscope has a very strong value proposition, I can see the price being an overall barrier for some, in this industry though, most good tools are expensive. An improved keyword research tool would be great also, but admittedly that's not the main purpose of this product.

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

Time management and being able to create well-informed content without spending a ridiculous time doing so. Clearscope massively cuts down my research time. The benefits that I've realized would be, an easier process managing my team, improved content, and increased traffic and rankings.

"One of the best content SEO tools around"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

The fact we can easily use the keyword search tool to generate reports but also use as a standalone tool while prospecting new content ideas. It gives such a robust set of data, that I feel like I'm making informed choices every time.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

Not really anything, to be honest. I haven't hit a point where I thought, "Darn it, I wish Clearscope could do this!" It works really well, and they keep adding features that I didn't even know I needed.

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

No problems, but the benefits are almost endless. We can now assign content writing to new freelancers without having to spend a ton of time outlining exactly what we need for SEO. Instead, we help them understand how to use Clearscope, run a report, share it with them, and let them go. Easy for high-level editing, and we can see where certain changes were made for SEO, making editorial workarounds MUCH more intuitive and simple.

"The SEO content tool that gives insights that hours of research simply can’t"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

The ability to see how entities (similar to keywords) are used in context by top 10 competitors for your article and real-time content grades.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

Small learning curve for running multiple reports, but the Clearscope team offers training to run you through this.

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

I’ve used this tool with several clients that need help writing high-quality content that will rank. You can’t expect to give a writer 50 keywords and receive a quality article in return. Clearscope solves this by allowing the writer to click on any entity (keyword) and see the paragraph it’s used in across the top 10 pages ranking for the main keyword. The content grader (F to A+) shows the writer how well the draft covers the entities, including prioritization for the most relevant entities. My favorite feature is the Google Docs integration, which means writers don’t have to learn a new system.

"Best tool for "content comprehensiveness"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

Writer friendly tool. Most SEO tools are not very writer friendly. They are very analytical. But in order to be successful in optimizing content, your writers need to love the tools. This team gets that.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

Wish that I could buy additional credits / reports when I run out before the end of the month - right from within the platform.

I've seen improvements in keyword ranking by optimizing pages / content with the related keywords this tool suggests.

"Clearscope methodically removes "seat of the pants" content decisions"
What do you like best about Clearscope?

The interface is so simple and easy to understand, but the thought behind it is powerful.

What do you dislike about Clearscope?

Limited number of old searches displayed

What problems is Clearscope solving and how is that benefiting you?

Clearscope does methodically what I've done manually for years: find out what readers want by analyzing Google search results. Only it does it more deeply and faster and with more options than I ever could. By also analyzing the competition on page 1 of the SERPs, it lets you easily spot opportunities and recognize whether readers have a transactional or informational intent, and what sort of content others are using to satisfy that intent.
