This is one of those tools which eclipses all others in its effectiveness. It’s pretty much the only tool you would need to carry out most of your research, from establishing the right keywords to target, finding the right keyword-rich domain to use (the sister program, Domain Samurai, also focusses entirely on this aspect), examining the strength of the competition, finding content, finding affiliate products, finding the best sources for backlinks…

If you DON’T get this, then you’re tying one hand behind your back and you’ll be spending much, much more time than you should on keyword research, competition analysis, content provisioning and most of the other activities you need to carry out.

It has to be said, that some of the functionality of Market Samurai (particularly examination of the SEO competition) has been taken on board by other competing tools like Traffic Travis, but that’s largely where the similarity ends.

The modules Included in the tool are Keyword Research, SEO Competition, Domains, Monetization, Find Content, Publish Content, Promotion and an as-yet-unpublished module covering AdWords. So all-in-all a fairly comprehensive suite.

The program is built on Adobe Air, so is cross-platform, and updates are automatic.

I’ve been a user of this tool since its launch in 2008 and I’ve been consistently impressed by it every time I’ve used it - which has been a lot!

Given that you can make your mind up by taking the free trial download, you’d be crazy not to check it out. I guarantee you won’t be disappoointed.
