Simple, Helpful, Elegant SEO Tools.
Alright! This is a really good deal in my book :)
I've been playing around with this tool for the past hour or so and here's what I like and don't like about it but first.... let me say I'm a blogger who sells online courses and is pretty proficient in Google Analytics without being an SEO expert by any means.
What I really like about Zag.ai:
1- Everything revolves around Google Analytics goals which forces you to actually set one up and actually look at how it's performing!
I know this may seem basic to many but, if you're anything like me, you may have a tendency to geek out with numbers and sometimes lose sight of their purpose! Zag.ai will force you to think about that for a little bit. That can only be a good thing for your business ;)
2- SEO Prospector: they make it super easy to see the relationship between keywords / search results / click through rate and I love their recommendation to just change the title of the page and come back in 2-3 weeks to see if CTR % has increased.
Also super easy to tag a keyword as favorite so you can easily track which keywords you're working on and check back on them in the future.
This may seem basic for SEO pros but as a solo blogger, this is HUGE for me. I've used SE Ranking, Hike, KW Finder and Webtexttool and can play around Google Analytics just fine but feel like Zag.ai is giving me something unique here. Just nice and simple, helpful data visualization.
3- Raving Referrals: this is something I haven't been paying much attention to using Google Analytics and I feel like the way Zag.ai presents the data will make it MUCH easier for me to identify what's working for me.
For example, I was surprised to see that my music website and YouTube are converting really well for me. Good to know!
Also confirmed my feeling that a guest post I wrote back in August 2017 is bringing me super qualified leads (thanks, Neville @KopywritingKourse !).
4- First Impressions. Showing best performing pages. Again, I could have seen that in GA but this report is just more intuitive and helpful.
5- Really clear and helpful tutorial videos and onboarding.
Don't care or would like to see improved:
- I don't really have a use for Treasure Map (geo-location of users) or at least it's really not a priority right now.
- The Big Picture. I'm getting an error report right now but I'm sure
- couldn't find a link to the Facebook group :/
All in all a really good deal! I tend to stay clear of subscription services but I've seen enough to be really excited about Zag.ai, including the tools this deal doesn't cover. Can't wait to learn more about the Sumo-special they said they're working on for the other tools.

Re: Big Picture, this is a known bug that impacts about 10% of users - right now Will & Nadav (our dev team) are working on a solution as we speak, a patch should be deployed in a few hours
Thanks so much!
