23 Best SaaS SEO Tools to Grow Your Organic Traffic and Leads in 2024

Whoever said SaaS SEO is easy was lying but at the same time not lying. Let me elaborate, SaaS SEO and SaaS content marketing is a little easier when done with the right SaaS SEO tools. Otherwise it is of course almost impossible to crack SaaS SEO. 

“But what SaaS SEO platforms shall I use for my business, there are too many of them?”

That is just the problem we are going to solve today! I have curated a list of all the top SaaS SEO tools in the market that you can go for based on your needs. 

SaaS SEO tools to increase your website traffic

Today, you don’t have to optimize your content and your website for just SEO but also for AI overviews. 

Why? 

Because you want your brand to be there in the top options provided by AI overviews when it comes to services related to your brands. So I am sharing some of the top SaaS SEO tools that can be your helping hand in the process. 

Topping it off with a cherry, I have shared my personal experience and review of these tools as well because i have been in the industry for over 5 years now, and I have tried most of these myself and I still use most of them regularly. 

Ahrefs 

Ahrefs is the ultimate SaaS SEO tool that you need for different types of SEO including technical, off-page, and on-page as well. 

However, one thing that Ahrefs surpasses all other SaaS SEO tools in is the accuracy, and quality of keywords it provides you with and the filters along with them. I have tried multiple tools and the keyword data from Ahrefs is often more detailed than the others. And they are highly filterable as well! 

When your keywords are right, that’s when you can structure your content strategy the right way as well and thus, more points and better results from your SEO. 

Along with these features it has other features too like a full-fledged website audit can be performed, you can track your value adding keywords too, and can track multiple websites as well. 

What to use it for? 

• Quality keywords research. 
• Tracking keywords day by day.
• Tracking rankings. 
• Site audits. 
• Content research and strategy building. 
• SERP analysis. 

Pricing 

• Lite - USD 129 /mo
• Standard - USD 129 /mo
• Advanced - USD 449 /mo
• Enterprise - USD 14,990 /yr

Srishti’s Review 

8/10 - Pricing is over the top for professionals working individually and small businesses. Else the tool is top tier. 

Semrush 

Semrush pretty much offers the same solutions as Ahrefs for SEO the difference being Ahrefs offers stronger insights into backlink profile and keywords while Semrush has an edge in the paid marketing department. 

Why do I not use Semrush for my research and data is because I wasn’t satisfied with the keyword data I was getting and the filterability of those keywords as wel which was slowing down my process. 

However, Semrush is still one of the top SaaS SEO tools in the market and it is definitely a must have especially if you want to make your SaaS SEO work well with paid marketing as well. 

Other than that, it offers basic functionalities like Ahrefs as well like keyword rank tracking and finding backlinks of your competitors. 

What to use it for? 

• PPC advertising keyword research and analysis. 
• Ad copy testing and getting a feedback. 
• Content marketing to find trending topics to work upon. 
• Social media marketing and tracking. 
• Site audits. 

Pricing 

• Pro - USD 139.95/mo
• Guru - USD 249.95/mo 
• Business - USD 499.95/mo 

Srishti’s Review 

7/10 - While Ahrefs and Semrush keep trying to do one up with each other, to me personally, Ahrefs seems easier to use and more to-the-point when it comes to best platform for SEO for SaaS. 

Screaming Frog

Mark my words when I say this, there is no other tool in the market which is as good as Screaming Frog when it comes to a SaaS SEO platform for technical audit. 

Screaming Frog crawls not only your website but it also digs deep and crawls all the links as well that you have embedded within your website. Along with that, it also gives you data on your content and highlights issues like lack of heading structure or duplicate content. 

It gives you a detailed intel on your site structure, and showcases in an easy to understand manner. If you are an expert with SEO then you are going to love it, but if you are just starting out then maybe not so much since the tool can be a bit technical to use and it uses a lot of jargon as well to explain the issues it is highlighting. 

What to use it for? 

• Technical SEO audit - to fix issues as it specifically points them out. 
• On-page SEO audit, as it can help you find the things to improve like heading structure and content length. 
• To analyze the site intricate site structure. 
• To find content issues like thin content and duplicacy. 

Pricing 

• Free version - Crawl limit of 500 URLs
• Paid - USD 313/yearly 

Srishti’s Review  

10/10 - there is no tool out there that comes at par with its capabilities. The one-time pricing is a little hefty at once, however, feasible for the long run. 

Google SERPs

Content marketing in SaaS SEO is one of the major departments that is not easy to crack. But Google SERPs can be your he;lping hand through this especially when it comes to filtering keywords for your content. 

When filtering keywords, understand the intent behind each one of them and how you do that is by checking the content and its intent which is already ranking for the keyword. That would help you build you keyword buckets and also tell you the type of content (like blogs, landing pages) you must create for a particular keyword. 

Along with that, Google SERPs is also where you want to rank on top that means you will have to dethrone some other brand and to do that, you need to find why that content is ranking and then make your better than it! 

So next time you are building your content strategy, take Google SERPs into consideration. 

What to use it for? 

• To analyze the content which is ranking. 
• Analyse intricate details like title, URLs, and metadata. 
• To find out search intent of the user. 
• To find gaps which you can utilize to make your SaaS content rank. 

Pricing 

Free!! 

Srishti’s Review 

10/10 - Google SERP is one of the places that both beginners and SEO connoisseurs need to ace in SaaS SEO. Without it, no matter how got your SaaS SEO agencies or experts are, your business can’t go too far. 

Google Search Console

I mean, what even SEO is without Google Search Console?  

Google Search Console (GSC) is the single most important SaaS SEO tool that you should have set up right ater your website goes live. 

Why? Because you get insights straight from Google and the data is updated every two hours. From tracking the keywords your content is and brand is ranking for to knowing if your pages are even indexed or not to finding issues with your website pages - all the insights are directly coming from Google. 

So missing out on it is not an option because you need it to track your position, impressions, clicks and other SaaS marketing metrics as well. 

What to use it for? 

• Search queries your website is ranking for. 
• Performance of your content. 
• Indexing and crawl errors. 
• Find opportunities to update your content strategy and content peices. 

Pricing 

Free! 

Srishti’s Review 

10/10 - If you have a website, it is must to have Google Search Console! 

Google Analytics 

After GSC comes Google Analytics, another important Google tool that gives you direct data from the searh engine your website is live on. 

Through Google analytics you can track crucial metrics like which channel most of your traffic is come from. Or how many new visitors your website got, or which content is performing best, and what is your bounce rate. 

Knowing these intricate details help you improve your SEO manifolds, you get to know the exact channels you should be focusing on, or what content you need to update. Again, a very crucial SaaS SEO tool that you cannot sideline. 

What to use it for?

• To know the intricate details like new users and number of sessions. 
• To know your audience through their demographics and their engagement pattern. 
• Website optimization with A/B testing and creating content that your audience likes. 

Pricing 

Free of cost 

Srishti’s Review 

10/10 - It’s Google’s world and we are just living in it (you see how i just flattered Google to rank my content 😉). Google Analytics is one of the main SaaS SEO tool in Google suite that you need to keep a close eye on. 

Frequently Asks Questions on Google Search 

I keep repeating this to my clients and my team, and I would repeat it for you as well - There is no better place than the original source to know what your users are searching for. 

And currently, Google is that source, your audience is there, your website is there, so you need insights directly from Google to help you enhance your SaaS SEO.

Srishti’s Review 

10/10 - FAQs on Google’s Search page is Google directly telling you for free - “Include these things in your content to reach wider audience.”

Answer The Public 

Answer The Public, is a tool, solely for the purpose of helping you build solid content. Just like many other SaaS SEO tools they also give you keywords but they are different from them in the sense that they give you those keywords after filtering them as well. 

Like there is no guesswork for you to do, you know all the searches that are going down in Google and along with that you also know the intent of those searches. As surprising as it sounds, Ask The Public is actually giving that to you through their keyword wheel 👇.

8/10 - I like the tool, but the I would like to have a more versatile tool in the said pricing than just a tool to streamline my content. 

AlsoAsked

There are several SaaS SEO and keyword providing tools that we have talked about, yet it is never enough because you want to know your audience inside out. Their needs and everything they are searching for which is relevant to your business. 

AlsoAsked is another one of the SaaS SEO platforms that helps you with that but again they have a very distinctive point which is - they get you 0 volume keywords and find long tail keywords as well for you. These can help you reach closer to your target audience and also get some new SEO content ideas.

A Lot of new keywords are being searched for every single day, but the SEO tools take time to add them to their database or not add them at all because of low volume. But even if 10 people are searching for it, then those are 10 probable leads lost and that is where AlsoAsked comes to help you. 

What to use it for? 

• To access zero volume keywords. 
• To find long tail keywords. 
• To find intent and relationship between main and related keywords and questions. 
• For SEO copywriting. 
• Dor SEO content briefs. 

Pricing

• Pro - USD 47/mo 

Srishti’s Review 

7/10 - I haven’t tried the tool personally, but I have heard alot of my peers use it and be appreciative of it. However, there are too many tools out their that can help you build good content with a lot of other features. 

Google Trends 

“Huh, another on of Google’s tools Srishti?”

Umm yes, your website is on Google and it currently has the monopoly in the market too so it only makes sense to try out everything they are providing. 

Google Trends is the SaaS SEO tool that can help you ride a wave of the trending topic and get some good traffic, leads, or regular readers from. It gives uou the current trending topics accorss the world and also in your own country so you can leverage it anyway.

Srishti’s Review 

8/10 - The tool is better for media sites which update and create content on everyday basis. For SaaS SEO the tool can only help with market research at best. 

Snov.io

If you will visit Snov.io then you are going to get a little confused because it is primarily being sold as a sales software so naturally you will wonder that how can it be a SaaS SEO tool. 

If you think of it, link building is in a way a sales process only. You reach out through cold email, offer a deal, and try to close it as well. However, it is not that simple. 

Link building is currently one of the hardest segment of SEO to crack in the market and that is why more and more businesses are optiing for SaaS link building agencies. 

Because you don’t just have to convince a person to give you a backlink from their website, but you need to find their email, then verify it, and yhen follow up multiple times to get a response. And you have to do it with  multiple people at once. 

If you start doing this manually then I can tell you from personal experience that your chances of going crazy are more than your chances of getting a quality backlink. So to help you in the process you have Snov.io which can automate this entire procedure. 

Just add the list of domains you want to get a link from and it will get you the verified email ids for the person of contact and you can also create an automated flow of the outreach campaign to reach them. 

What to use it for? 

• To find only verified email for outreach. 
• To create email drip campaigns for outreach. 
• To created automated email flow. 
• To track your email delivery, open rate, and other related metrics.  

Pricing

• Strater - USD 30/mo
• Pro - USD 75/mo  

Srishti’s Review 

8/10 - The credit system makes it a little too expensive for small businesses and individuals. Also, link building is a high value task which can only be automated upto certain extent, so instead of getting a tool, maybe get best link building services. 

Majestic

Majestic is one of the underrated SaaS SEO tools and it deserves some hype so here I am doing my bit. It has many features but my favorite one are its functionalities of checking your as well as your competitor’s backlink. 

Along with that it also gives you a score opn the quality of those backlinks and also have a feature for you to find quality and desirable websites. The latter is my personal favorite because it has made my outreach process so much more easier.

• To find pages that can give you quality editorial links.

Pricing

Srishti’s Review 

8/10 - Most of the things that the tool offers is being offered in other tools as well. However, the feature of finding relevant pages to link to is something unique. 

GTmetrix 

Technical SEO and user experience is one of the most important factors to keep track of because you can enjoy the benefits of SEO only when all the aspects of it are aligned. So presenting you another one of SaaS SEO platforms that can help you enhance both for your website. 

GTmetrix can tell you the speed of your website, how it is performing on both desktop and mobile, if the speed is low then why it is slow, what elements to optimize to improve it - and more.

10/10 - How can someone not like a tool that is making your life simpler? 

SEO SaaS tools or SaaS SEO agencies to nail organic marketing? 

Of course SaaS SEO tools are going to assist you in your SaaS SEO, but you alos need to remember that they are ‘just tools’ and not experts who can also guide you about the next steps for your business’s SEO. 

So tools alone are not going to be enough! 

But will SaaS SEO agencies be enough alone? Absolutely! And for that you wouldn’t even need SaaS SEO platforms so you will be saving huge capital monthly on software costs as well. 

So experts + no need to buy tools + automated SaaS SEO is definitely a win-win situation to go for. If you are looking for this lethal combination then contact ZeroAdo the SaaS SEO experts. We have built multiple Saas SEO brands from scratch and have helped our clients reach new heights! 

If you are looking for just the best tools then I have already shared the best ones in your market, so take your pick based on what your business needs.
