Back-to-back SEO tools bite the dust, leaving customers with bad taste
EDIT IN RESPONSE TO THE PERSON WHO RESPONDED TO ME: If this is Josh Bachynski, I have ZERO, ZERO, ZERO intention of ever supporting you or your work again! AppSumo, how can you allow this person to continue to post after what he allowed to happen to all our time and money?
After spending about $400 on SEOdity on AppSumo and watching it close after about two years, I tentatively went with this Keyword Discovery tool for $140. Now it, too, has closed after just eight months.
I think the lesson is not to spend a lot on higher tiers for AppSumo's SEO tools because they just don't last. It might even be worth paying dreaded subscription fees for a service that hangs around because SEO tools aren't one that you want to set up over and over.

Jan 6, 2026I am rebuilding a Keyword Discovery style app from scratch in a new company, newer and better features. And there will be some form of concessions for former appsumo customers. But you are right to say that the time of the low cost LTDs might be over, it costs a lot to run these tools. And yes, even like $14/month could keep the tool open to improve and grow and survive pitfalls. It doesn't have to be expensive!
