In this section, you will find the top 100 sites for each of the queries that you’ve added to the project. The data is stored for 1 year from the date when the project was created.
There are two ways of accessing the tool:
- just hover over any query and click on the “competitors” icon that appears next to it.
- from the My Competitors tab.
The analysis of the top 100 will help to evaluate the keyword competition; find new competitors, that have not reached the top yet, but are moving there quickly; view the dynamics of a competitor’s specific site or page; identify websites that have been taking positions in the search for a long time as well as new players (it’s easier to compete with the newcomers than with old players).
