TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES:

  • [00:27] Today’s Topic: How to Compete in a Saturated Market
  • [00:38] Neil recently released version 2.0 of UberSuggest.
  • [01:01] I looked at the big players in the space and found that most of the major players aren’t making a ton of money.
  • [01:19] Moz is making around 50 Million, Ahrefs is between 30-100 Million, and SEMRush is between 50-100 Million.
  • [01:39] Google does over 100 Billion in ad revenue.
  • [01:50] I found their models were all wrong, so I just released it all for free.
  • [02:30] When you’re in a saturated market and there is no clear winner, you take the best of what everyone is doing.
  • [03:00] Most people don’t use all the features from each service, so take the best ones.
  • [03:40] The main differential in Neil’s product is that it is user-friendly and free.
  • [04:15] Learn from what other people are doing.
  • [04:45] My goal is to build an all-in-one marketing suite that helps others generate traffic. I’m not trying to compete with other SEO software.
  • [05:15] Version 3.0 will allow you to put in a URL and it will tell you what the top pages, keywords, traffic, and will break it down by region.
  • [05:28] That’s it for today!
  • [05:34] Go here to see how many downloads the show is getting. Also rate and review to help us meet our goal of 1 Million downloads per month. Hopefully, we’ll see you at the live event in L.A.!
