    The PDF generator and the data export features make it easy for digital marketers in large companies to pull data out for the purpose of sharing with their colleagues in sales, customer service, finance, and of course the executive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    One of the things I appreciated most about SpyFu was the wealth of data it provided. The platform offers detailed information on my competitors' keywords, ad copy, and backlinks, which gave me valuable insights into their digital marketing strategy. Additionally, SpyFu's historical data feature allows me to see how my competitors' strategies have evolved over time, providing me with a deeper understanding of the market.

    As a final note, when I cancelled SpyFu, I was given a retention offer to keep the service at half price for life. Just thorwing that out there. If you, for whatever reason, want to use this junk, make sure your at least not paying full price for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    The data is pretty much useless and very inaccurate. Not worth a subscription since you see all the available data in the first five minutes. Would not recommend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    SpyFu brings only rough data and does not bring you with actionable actions or some directions. If you are ranking on wrong search terms it is up to you t discover it. You need to deeper analyze the results. So, Spyfu "seems" to deliver information that you have to really scrutinize. If you have questions their Chat system is useless. It is almost an automated system. Based on your question they send links that direct you to their FAQ pages. Unfortunately the expertise behind Chat is NULL. It is difficult to get straight answers.

    That I will quickly outgrow the lack of accuracy/freshness of the keyword data. It's OK for now but once I hit full deployment it won't suit.

    Lots of features that were promised in the demo video were outright lies. Link importing doesn't work, finding contacts doesn't work or hasn't worked yet for me.

    Navigation within the site is very difficult at first, which makes it hard to efficiently complete what you're trying to do.

    I use SpyFu to do keyword and competitor research. I need to know the search volume of keywords and which keywords competitors are bidding on so that I may optimize my marketing strategies.
    SpyFu shows keyword search volumes and related keywords which I struggle to find elsewhere. SpyFu shows details about any website's organic traffic.

    SpyFu, along with other tools, allows us to see how people are accessing a potential client's website. We see a sample of what people have done in the past recent months — an example of organic terms that are puling up search results as well as some keyword research.

    I use Spyfu to discover new profitable keywords for Google Ads and for SEO. It is also great to look at competitors' keywords and ads.

    We have used SpyFu for SEO and SEM research at 360i and STEAK Digital. For SEO we used it to determine and manage Client SEO expectations by using their "Estimated Value of Organic Traffic". Though I think the real benefit comes from their SEM tools. Seeing previous competitor Ad copy and keyword Ad history really helped our SEM department develop their campaigns.
    SEO tools a fairly bare bones compared to other tools

    I had the opportunity to utilize SpyFu to develop strategy's for my clients to better position themselves against their opponents. We also used SpyFu to locate possibly clients that are looking to enhance their Search Engine positioning. We are able to use this information and present them to clients for reference and analysis.
    Possibly expansions of results of different keywords. The effectiveness these keywords have on their websites.
