SEO Analyzer Tool
The Competitive Landscape Analyzer (CLA) compares your backlink profile and dozens of other metrics with those of your competitors.
Usually, you compare the backlink profile of the whole domain, but you can also drill-down to compare only subfolders or even individual pages.
Why compare only a page or a subfolder to your competitors?
- Analyze a particular product sold on a page in e-commerce stores
- Analyze a particular product category of e-commerce stores
- Compare only the homepages or the contact page of your domain vs. those of your competitors
- Understand why a competitor’s product page is outperforming your own product page
- The options are limitless.
So you can focus on only those subfolders or pages of your specific SEO analysis, save time and stay focused.
