What do you like best about Majestic?

The data that Majestic provides is trustworthy, extremely detailed and easy to understand and glean insights. Majestic also takes data a step further and provides easy to understand and colorful graphs that are can be show to clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Majestic?

Majestic at heart is a paid service and while they provide some data for non-subscribers I would like them to provide more. Even as a paid subscriber it was easy to get continual data updates week over week, reports could be setup but this was timely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Majestic:

Majestic is a great product and provides excellent backlink data. I am not sure it is a standalone product, it is probably best paired with other tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Majestic solving and how is that benefiting you?

Backlink data and domain data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Majestic?

The link profile fight makes comparing two sites quick and easy. Simply add in two domains and get a full report on how the two match up. You can gather a quick understanding on two sites.

If you're looking to compare 5 sites the back link history checker allows users to add in 5 sites and see how they all stack up. Detailed charts help show users what's happening.

Lost back links is a life saver. Constantly links are being removed, pages changed, etc. With this tool you can monitor what is happening with back links to your site. If a link is lost users can see where it was located and when it was last crawled Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Majestic?

Link ranking metrics are subjective. Trust flow and citation flow are linking metrics created by Majestic so it is important for users to examine all links themselves, you may disagree with the results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Majestic:

This software is very similar to other back linking tracking sites on the market. It is recommending to try out each one of these softwares and find which one fits your needs. Ease of use, reports, crawl times, etc change from site to site. Test them all before making a decision. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Majestic solving and how is that benefiting you?

In the SEO world we are always tracking to see what competitors are doing and where we may be losing opportunities. With Majestic we can check daily to see where new links are being added, where we may be losing opportunities and compare that to the competition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Majestic?

Majestic has by far the best backlink data of any tool I've seen. You can see backlinks to any of your own sites or any of your competitor sites. I love the reports that show cumulative link growth over time. It's one of the best ways to show clients that link building is critical to them; plus, when you categorize links coming into their conpetitors it tends to light a fire under them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Majestic?

Some of the metrics are either too difficult to understand or not very meaningful. I wish they could have more simple options and greatly improve their user interface--reports still look very dated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Majestic:

You won't find a better backlink checker, especially for competitive backlinks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Majestic solving and how is that benefiting you?

We need to know backlinks to our site, which Google Webmaster Tools only shows a subject of, as well as backlinks to competitor sites, so we can keep track of the competition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Majestic?

The backlinks database for majestic is the best for non-US based companies. Have tried most of the other big tools, and while they many have excellent tools and easier interface, the accuracy of the data just isn't there yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Majestic?

What I currently see as short-comings in the tool are very likely my own inexperience with the tool. have been using for less than 12 months and have not invested the time yet to go thru the tutorials - my bad.

Would like to see an ability to upload a disavow file and have own site scores recalculated based on that. I know it changes the playing field for comparing against competitors, but it also enables us to see if the pruning is having the desired effect (apart from what we see in the search results - the ultimate test). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Majestic solving and how is that benefiting you?

backlink analysis, competitive analysis, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from ✅ Dixon Jones of Majestic

Thank you for the review. Much appreciated.

With regard to the disavow request, we might be able to get part of the way there, by allowing you to "tag" links as disavowed somehow, but our metrics are pretty complex and take something like 30 hours a time to calculate without flags, so we could not recalculate based on individual preferences.

On the training, Majestic does have a bit of a learning curve. Fair challenge. We provide multiple free routes to develop, though, and will continue to invest in these. we are also working on UX ideas to make the system more intuitive.

even the freeware account offers data that is imperative to the SEO's need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Majestic?

difficulty in exporting large files of data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Majestic:

use it. Especially if you are looking for an inexpensive option to investigate your site's linking structure. Ahrefs might be a better tool that has a simpler interface, but this is reliable, and provides a ton of good data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Majestic solving and how is that benefiting you?

backlink evaluation and clean -up, future backlink opportunity discovery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Majestic?

Generates a pretty thorough back link history, provide insightful analytic data, and it includes both fresh and historical links. Probably the most comprehensive, powerful backlink tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Majestic?

Some of the backlinks it finds have been removed, so it doesn't always provide the most accurate picture... Also I'm not sure I would rank it high on ease of use -- I had to refer to the tutorials and FAQ quite heavily before I got a hang of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Majestic:

Consider streamlining the product -- it has so many tools that ease of use suffers. The interface is not the most attractive.. could use work. And, a serious investment in the tools accuracy -- especially given the price of the product! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Majestic solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was able to provide a better analysis of competitors, develop new and more informed SEO strategies, improved link building, and generally running backlink searches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Majestic?

Easy to see who links to your site. Which links are new and those that are lost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Majestic?

The free version hides a lot of tools so you just get a glimpse of the potential. Even the compare tool is subscription only. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Majestic:

The trial version is just a tease of the real tools. We hope to use the subscription version in the future if we can convince our clients of its value. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Majestic solving and how is that benefiting you?

Like everyone we need to improve our links. We can identify which pages are attracting link sand try to improve them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
