If you’re looking into SEO tools to help your website get noticed, you probably already know that there are basically two options available to you - paid tools and free ones. There are free tools out there which you may find useful from time to time and certainly a lot of people do use them; these tools can be used to monitor back links, provide you with statistics for your website and even keyword research. A lot of the time though, you are better off with the paid tools than with the free tools. Why is this, you ask? Keep reading to learn a little more about the advantages of paid tools as compared to free tools.
Paid Tools are Usually More Reliable - First of all, you’ll typically find that once you try them out, the paid tools offer more reliability than do the free options out there. The reason for this is pretty obvious; there is a profit motive involved in the paid tools, so the developers have incentive to make sure that the software is maintained and updated.
Accuracy is Better with Paid Tools - You’ll also find that accuracy is often much better with paid tools. Those who come up with free tools usually don’t have the motivation to come up with improved sources that make the tools better. People who have paid tools are more motivated to keep on top of accuracy of their tools, since they’ll hear about any accuracy problems from their customers.
Paid SEO Tools Are More Convenient - In general, users report that paid SEO tools are easier to use - there are all in one SEO tool suites available (but not for free). The convenience of having all of the tools you need in one place can more than make up for the small investment made in SEO tools.
Integration is Much Easier with Most Paid Tools - When you deal with free SEO tools, you’ll find that you have different ones across the web, and this can be frustrating to deal with. Also, you can’t take all these free tools and then integrate them all together. With paid tools, you’ll usually find that they are much easier to integrate together so you don’t have to spend time jumping from tool to tool on the internet.
Technical Support -Free SEO tools usually have little to no technical support. Paid tools of course do have some support behind them and in fact in many cases the technical support offered is excellent with turnaround times of 24 hours or less. If you run into any trouble with your SEO software, technical support is a big plus and can be well worth the purchase price all by itself.
While you can indeed get some very good SEO tools for free, there is a strong case to be made for paid SEO tools. Many webmasters decide that the convenience, support and ease of use offered by paid SEO tools are more than worth the price.
