Seobility: The best free SEO tool? (Review + Tips)

A powerful SEO tool can make all the difference in search engine optimisation(SEO). One of these tools is the SEO suite from Seobility. It stands out in particular because it is available in a free version.

What is Seobility?

Seobility is an all-in-one SEO suite that is aimed at both beginners and advanced users. It offers a wide range of functions that are otherwise often only found in expensive, paid tools.

Even the free version of Seobility allows users to carry out a basic SEO audit (on-page analysis and backlink check) and make initial optimisations.

This free usage option makes it particularly attractive for beginners who want to familiarise themselves with the world of search engine optimisation without making a large investment.

However, advanced users can also benefit from the free version to manage smaller projects, carry out a simple SEO check or test certain functions.

How I came across Seobility

I have been working intensively on the topic of SEO for over 13 years and carry out corresponding projects for companies with my SEO agency. In my many years of practice, I have tested and used many SEO tools. However, many of these tools are expensive and require high monthly fees.

For our SEO Masterclass, we were looking for a product that would enable participants to learn and apply SEO basics such as on-page optimisation without incurring high costs immediately. In this search for an inexpensive but effective product, I came across Seobility.

Seobility offers exactly what we need. The SEO software is one of the few truly useful freemium versions on the market.

In the following video, I share my experiences with Seobility and show how both beginners and advanced users can benefit from this tool.

In the following article, I will go into detail about the various features, explain the differences between the free and paid versions and provide practical tips on how to make the most of them.

Why Seobility?

When it comes to search engine optimisation, it is crucial to have a reliable and powerful SEO tool at hand. However, many of these tools are expensive and require high monthly fees.

This is where Seobility comes into play.

It is one of the few SEO tools on the market that is available in a useful and powerful free version.

Target group of the SEO tool: Beginners and advanced users

Seobility is specifically designed to provide useful tools for both beginners and advanced users. For beginners, it offers a simple user interface and clear instructions that make it easy to get started in the world of SEO.

Advanced users will appreciate the more in-depth analysis options and the ability to develop more complex SEO and content marketing strategies.

Despite the limitations of the free version, Seobility offers a comprehensive range of functions that make it possible to check and optimise a variety of SEO aspects.

How it works: Freemium model

Seobility follows a so-called freemium model. This means that the basic functions of the tool can be used free of charge, while extended functions are available in a paid version. This model allows users to test the tool extensively and utilise many useful features at no cost.

Advantages of the free version:

• Analysing a website: In the free version, you can analyse and optimise a website.

• 1.000 URLs: Up to 1,000 URLs can be crawled and analysed.

• Weekly crawls: The website is automatically crawled once a week and checked for SEO problems.

Advantages of the paid version:

• Up to 25,000 URLs can be analysed: With the paid version, you can crawl and analyse up to 25,000 URLs. This is particularly useful for large websites and online shops where many subpages need to be optimised.

• Start crawls as often as you like: In the paid version, you can crawl as often as you like. This allows you to receive immediate feedback on changes and continuously work on optimising your website.

Main features of Seobility

Seobility offers a comprehensive overview of the status of your website. After registering and creating your website, you will receive a detailed analysis divided into different sections:

1. Overview

2. Technology and meta

3. Structure

4. Content

These sections will help you to understand and optimise the various aspects of your website.

1. Overview

Here you will find a general overview of your website's performance, including the number of crawled pages and basic SEO KPIs.

2. Technical & Meta

In this section you will find specific technical and meta tags analyses. For example:

• Duplicate Page Titles: Seobility identifies pages with duplicate title tags. You can display the affected pages and decide whether action is required.

• Meta descriptions: Analyse and optimise your meta descriptions to ensure they are unique and relevant.

Recommendation: Don't just blindly implement the recommendations, but interpret the results. Some problems that the tool recognises may not be relevant in your specific context.

3. Structure

The Seobility dashboard for structure analysis provides a comprehensive overview of various aspects of website structure and their optimisation potential. The most important points are summarised here:

• Degree of optimisation and crawling information

A particularly exciting feature is the detailed analysis of individual URLs. You can enter any URL of your website and Seobility will show you all errors and optimisation options for this specific page. Here you can see:

• Meta data: Titles, descriptions, author information and more.
• Content rating: How well the content is optimised for SEO.
• Internal links: Which internal links point to this page and with which anchor texts. This information helps to optimise the structure of the website by pointing out specific areas that need to be improved, such as internal link texts, redirects and page accessibility.

Content - Content analysis

Seobility's content analysis provides an assessment of the quality and relevance of your content.

the most important points are summarised here:

• Degree of optimisation and crawling information
• Important errors and crawling tips
• Duplicate content
• Text quality
• Frequent keywords

These key points show how well the content of the website is optimised and indicate potential issues that need to be addressed to improve the visibility and efficiency of the website.

However, there are some limitations:

• Usability: some users find the usability of this section less than optimal.

• Statements: Some recommendations are difficult to interpret or do not always seem to make sense.

I therefore do not use this section often. I leave that to our content experts, who know what action to take as a result.

Further features of Seobility

Backlinks

In the free version of Seobility, the backlink analysis is limited. You can see which domains are linking to your site and the total number of backlinks, but for a detailed analysis you need the paid version. This is important in order to assess the quality and relevance of your backlinks and develop targeted link building strategies.

Ranking monitoring

Ranking monitoring is another highlight of Seobility. You can define specific keywords and regularly check their ranking. This feature is particularly useful for monitoring the effectiveness of your SEO measures and making adjustments.
