Surfer SEO

What it does

Surfer compares a draft against the top-ranking pages for a target keyword and scores it on structure, coverage and terminology. For an export site trying to rank a category page in English, that is a concrete checklist instead of guesswork.

There is no free tier - the lowest plan starts around forty-nine dollars a month on annual billing - so it only makes sense once content is a real channel rather than an afterthought.
