Scribe SEO – Is it worth it?

All, I am thinking of signing up for the $27/mo Publisher Scribe SEO plan.   Does anyone have any experience/feedback on this product? http://www.scribeseo.com

It looks great, but a lot of things "look" great, but are actually worthless.  Would you say this is a great service that I should definitely buy right now or are there free plugins in Wordpress that get the job done?

Any opinions or info would be much appreciated!

NWP, check out this post for more information - http://yakezie.com/forums/blog…..ol-for-seo

 

In essence, it is worth getting it for at least a few months when you get started. The "rules" it checks are not new if you have done your SEO research – have keywords in title, description, url… content should be more than 300 words… It checks it for you. After a while it will become second nature for you to automatically include these things. If you already are good with SEO (install All in One SEO if you haven't already), then just try it for a month and cancel.

 

You can use a coupon that will cut the price to half – STEPUP

 

Feel free to email me if you have more questions…

 

 

This is what I wrote about Scribe at that time ——————

Scribe won't make a post automatically SE optimized, but will make it easier to check the keyword density and other essential things (title, description, etc) which might be a chore to check manually. Scribe works as a web tool, meaning you don't have to install it in a website, you can do your post, SEO it online and send it to the clients. Or you could just install it on your blog, do the SEO and send the html. You won't need scribe for ever, after a few months, you will automatically start writing posts that already include all the good stuff. At that point you can discontinue scribe. I think there are some other (free) tools that analyze your post and give keyword density etc, if you are going that route I suggest the SEOQuake. I like it the best among the free ones. But I still prefer scribe for saving time.

For keyword research, everything can be done using google adwords, but again to save some time, Market Samurai or traffic travis works great. Again, MS and TT works as a stand along tool, so it is not confined to one blog.

If you decide to use scribe or market samurai here are my affiliate links (feel free to ignore this part Wink )

Suba,

 

I just thought of something, I am a member of BlogGlue.com and they have a plugin/widget for Wordpress that includes an BlogGlue SEO Check Tool.  Basically, before you publish your post it allows you to do an SEO check which has similar features as those described by Scribe SEO.  I might give this a try first and see how it goes, since it is FREE.

Agreed. Very useful. I really should get more into SEO but part of me just wants to not have to worry about it. I will reference this info though and look into this more.

I use Scribe (along with Market Samurai), and it's definitely worth the money. It is also good to have if you have staff writers or put up a lot of guest posts.

I don't pay for an SEO tool, and I rank on the first page for quite a few keywords! I would try a freebie for a while first. Many of them are actually quite good!

Great thread.  I dont pay for seo, and I dont practice it either.  Probably could help me quite a bit with traffic.
