What is the value of conducting organic and paid competitor analysis?

In order to improve your ranking, you have to understand which websites are competing for the same keywords so you can shape a strategy to beat them. With the Organic and Paid Competitors tools, uncover who you are competing with for search traffic. The list of domains may be very different from your well-known business competitors, especially over a specific geography.

After you identify search competitors of interest, you can use the Search Overlap Score to determine the degree of overlap. Continue your marketing competitive analysis with the Keyword Gap tool to discover how to win traffic share from them.
