Market Samurai is an awesome product! (And, no, I'm not an affiliate!) I have built a number of niche websites using MS, and it has been quite profitable for me.

Second: Are you sure about $97 for market samurai during trial period?
I decided to buy it but the price is $167 ?Where can 1 buy it at $97?
It's been $97 for new subscribers since 19th May (and I think for some time before that), but only if you'd bought Market Samurai in the first 7 days of your trial. For the next 5 days of your trial it would have been $127 to buy, and after that it's the full price, ie $149. Those are the same figures I wrote in my May 20th post in this thread.

I see from an earlier post that you'd already taken up your trial on May 5th. So your 12-day trial period would have ended on or before May 17th, depending on what date you started the trial, which is why you're being asked to pay the normal price.

The normal price is $149 not $167 - I think you might have been reading this bit of the sales page: "free upgrade to our "Mystery Module" - (to be released in the next 4-6 weeks) - value $167"

To reiterate, the $97 offer is for people who buy within the first 7 days of their trial. It's an incentive to buy earlier rather than later.

Hi Everyone,

I have bought Market Samurai last month. There is only word to describe the software and support: "Excellent" Why I say that is because the software literally gives the data I want to dominate my Niche market by spotting the best buyers keywords.

I have no comments about other keyword research software. Normally I do not use a keyword research software to do my keyword research before purchasing the software. But after downloading the trial version and using it for a day, I am convinced of the speed of gathering data. It is just in mere mins and secs. I am shock and amazed by this software.

The support they provide:Superb. When I have problems in using the software, they solve the problems straight away.


IMPORTANT: I know of a Niche Membership which is of Great Value. They do 98% work for you and you make 100% profit. The link is at my signature.

I have created 4 videos to show you around the members area:

after watching the videos i bought MNF only to be disappointed in the customer service, there is none. i emailed my questions several times and got no response.

the most trouble some feature is you can't toggle between searches. i end up saving alot of the same kw because i cant remember if i saved them or not.

i realize james is busy but i feel if you sell a product you should take care of your customers questions. if he is to busy hire someone.

I've been thinking about getting Marketing Samurai... have one question after reading their website and this thread:

Does it have a module that enables you to find out what keywords your competition is targeting? (for example, like keywordspy does)?

I really want MS to fulfill it's 'promise', but I've found the results to be very unreliable.

Mark
This is a common concern.

The truth is, reliability isn't the real issue.

Market Samurai can only ever display the data that it finds (it's software - it just performs a simple process).

But unless you know the process it's using, you'll never get the same results if you try to duplicate them manually.

So although people often worry about Market Samurai being slightly different to the data they receive manually, it's usually because they're gathering the data in a slightly different way.

Let me show you what I mean...

Quote:

Yes.

SEOBook's keyword suggestion tool uses Wordtracker's keyword suggestion tool. (So they *should* match each-other)

But Market Samurai will ALMOST NEVER match either of them. We do something that I think is much more accurate - we use Google's own data.

Wordtracker uses data from meta search engines - like Dogpile. Unfortunately, most people these days don't use meta search engines anymore - most people use Google data. So Wordtracker needs to scale-up its data to estimate how much traffic there might be on the larger search engines.

So if Dogpile has [say] 1% of the search market, and Google has 80%, and Dogpile is your source of data, you could assume that 80 days worth of Dogpile data is equal to 1 day of Google searches... But unfortunately, this isn't always the case.

For example, most internet marketers would use Google to search for products and services - not meta search engines... Likewise programmers, and other tech-savvy people. So the data gets skewed in some markets.

Market Samurai uses Google's own keyword traffic data to estimate traffic levels.

It sounds obvious - I know - but Market Samurai was the first keyword tool to do this.

Quote:

When we're checking competition results, there are two things we check:

  1. The number of competitors (the SEO Competitor counts that you see in the Keyword Research module), and;
  2. The strength of competition (the SEO Competition Analysis module)

Let's look at both of these.

The SEO Competitor counts are based on phrase-matched results in Google.

So if your keyword is dog training (to pick a good internet marketing example ) then Market Samurai will do a Google search for "Dog Training" (in quotes) to find out how many web-sites are using that phrase.

It's a much more indicative measure of competition - because there's a big difference between "credit cards" and companies that make greeting "cards" that shop owners can buy on "credit"... Or "dog training" and a video store's web-site that stocks both "training" day and reservoir "dogs"

In that way, Market Samurai is counting the number of sites that at least mention the keyword phrase... Because it's the most basic thing a web-site can do if they want to compete for rankings on the keyword.

Now, SEO Competition Analysis...

This is the top 10 results in Google for a keyword, and their SEO factors.

This is affected by your project settings - so you'll get different results if you select "All Countries and Territories" to "Botswana" to "United States".

Or if you're comparing results that you search manually, to results that Market Samurai gathers for a specific region. (Because Google will automatically try to tailor results to where it sees you're from)

Or if you're logged into a Google account when you search (again, because Google will try to tailor results to where it sees you're from)

Or if you try doing a search in Internet Explorer, and then try again with Firefox or Safari or Chrome (because for some weird reason, Google shows different results to users of different browsers)

HOWEVER...

...what Market Samurai is getting is an average, typical top 10 competitor snapshot for the region that you have selected.

Google has 100's, perhaps 1,000's, or even 10,000's of servers all displaying search results (each with slightly different data) - and they want to tailor results to users.

But what Market Samurai does is uses a smart system for getting typical results from any region in the world, tailored to any language in the world.

So although Google might change its data in different circumstances, what you see in Market Samurai will be very similar to what searchers see (if they're coming from the region that you selected in Market Samurai)

I hope this helps you out.

The answer most people are going to tell you is...drumroll please...

Whatever pays the most through an affiliate program! What's the hot and trendy and flavor of the month?

I downloaded Market Samurai and I think it's a good tool. I tried some the early -early versions so I know it's more evolved now. I own the Micronichefinder and know it works.

Market Samurai seems to have more bells and whistles, but is new and still has "growing pains" and the Micronicher Finder to me seems to be a more stable / mature platform. (That's my bias creepin in) If you aren't broke. Heck Use both. Microniche Finder videos and marketing/ sales page are so advanced that they can be explained to people that can barely operate a browser. The Samurai seems to be targeted at a slightly more advanced marketer. Those are my two cents.

Plus I want them back someday at 10% compounded interest over 30 years wired to a bank account.

Hi, TShipp

I found this on Google...

"Keyword research is NOT all about the number of searches a keyword has and the number of competing sites for a specific keyword. The true key here is knowing the STRENGTH OF COMPETITION (SoC).

The Strengh of Competition includes several variables, mainly: PageRank, page reputation, site authority, incoming links, PageRank of incoming links, relevance of content and many others (over 200 variables according to Google).

Which is why MNF takes the win, it actually measures the Strength of Competition and it gives you an opinion:

Green Light: Go for it now.
Yellow Light: Hard but possible.
Red Light: Close to impossible.


MNF is the winner...?!

Hi,

I own KE and MNF and think the ease-of-use of MNF is an advantage although they are not as flexible on the source of search engine data as KE is. Now, I was just contemplating purchasing SEO Elite (SE) until someone referred me to Market Samurai.
I understand SE helps you do a detailed analysis of top 10 competition and what
their backlink sources are qualified by strength.

Can anyone tell me if Market Samurai accomplishes the same functions as
KE & SE combined? So, if I can get my site on page 2 or 3, does it help me
analyze or quantify what sort of backlink campaign it would take to crawl
my way up on page 1 rankings?

Thanks

George

I own both MNF and Market Samurai. I use them both daily. With MNF it gives you the green light instantly but you get the same information with Market Samurai you just have to analyze your dater a little longer.

Market Samurai just released a feature the other day that lets you monitor your sites keyword rankins in Google, Yahoo, MSN, Youtube and some Web 2.0 properties. Very powerful stuff if you consider it Moniters the top 1000 results.

Should be an interesting Summer now that Keyword Elite 2 is coming out but Im loving this new Market Samurai feature.

MS has done another upgrade - and all of them have been FREE for current users.

I can't vouch for their customer service as I've never had to use it! I've really never had a real problem with MS - reading this thread just made me realize that. I'm not a affiliate though I'm starting to think why not? I really love this software.

I haven't used MicroNiche so can't comment on that.

KE is better at creating 200+ keyword lists. So if you're doing PPC campaigns it is worth it for that alone.

MS is the best tool at finding how competitive a niche is IMO. Not only of those 3, but of all the tools and systems I've seen,

Hi,

I tried all three of them. At first I liked Micro Niche Finder better because it could really find those micro niches over MS. However, I was just on MS website and they said that they were getting better at finding those micro niches.

So...THEY said that?
Come on! All product owners will say that their products are one of the best in the world

The point is...

If you can send a rocket to the moon by using this simple feature: E = mc2
Then, there is no need to use this complicated feature: E = (3mc3 - mc3)/2mc

Because they both yield the SAME result.

Simplicity is the key, man

Just my 2 cents

Am quite looking forward to Keyword Elite 2. Version 1 was a solid product, however has now been superseded by Newer tools.

why am I getting more keywords from googles keyword tool
than from ms

ms doesn't seem to find many long tail keywords,
maybe I'm using it wrong.

maybe it is better to import keywords from google's tool

Market Samurai is definitely my top choice. Easy to use, great for researching niche markets and constant upgrades make it worth every cent

I see I do need to import from googles keyword tool
then MS will supply the data, MS doesn't seem to capture
all the long-tails.

There is so much data I find it hard to choose keywords,
what should I base my choices on, there are many ways to look
at the data.

I'll probably get MNF also until I have a clear strategy for MS,
it is similar to themezoom.

Hope MS comes out with a video explaining step by step
how to create a content site using MS.

I'd like to know which software is best for showing backlinks (to my site and competitors sites), and for distinguishing the do-follows from the no-follows. I have had the experience of links being changed from df to nf behind my back and I need a software package that will show EVERY link coming into my site and just exactly what sort of links they are. WHICH SOFTWARE IS BEST FOR THIS?

None of these. These tools are "MAINLY" niche finders and keyword research tools, with a few minor SEO features thrown in.

I would suggest looking for an SEO Software product, rather than a keyword tool.

For your purpose, All you need is "SEO Elite" software (at www seoelite com).
I know it is good because I am using it..

Hope this helps.

Market Samurai for me, hands down. I love the interface and it just seems easier to use than MNF. The SEO competition module rocks. I couldn't live without that now.

I have both Keyword Elite and Market Samurai.

I decided to purchase Keyword Elite a few years back when it was first released and I loved it back then, however the internet has evolved and the search engines have changed so quickly and now its a completely different ball game.

Yes Keyword Elite has updated itself along the way, but if you are looking for 1 piece of software to do literally all of your Keyword Research, SEO research and analysis and find articles etc. then Market Samurai is the king that comes out on top.

I have had Market Samurai for a few months now and I must say I have fallen in love with it. The user interface is aesthetically pleasing. There are many different modules all easily accessible on the left side of the software whenever you need them.

These include Rank Tracker (to see where your domains rank for different keywords on different search engines). There's Keyword Research, SEO Research, Find Content & Promotion modules available too, however the software is constantly being updated and there are other modules due for release in the future such as Adwords, Monetization etc.

Keyword Elite does not run on a Mac whereas Market Samurai does so thats a big point for Mac users and I know most people are switching or have already switched to Mac to run their internet businesses.

I'm working with MS again, the best way to use any of these
keyword software products is to import your own keywords.

They are basically keyword analysis tools, not keyword generators,
unless they have a good api agreement.

I'm using Google keyword tool.

Does MNF let you import keywords.

Brad, I was about to buy Market Samurai until reading this thread. Will the price be competitive with the introductory $97 offer of Market Samurai? Can you give me (us) any more insight to its features? Will it be worth the wait? Thanks for any input. Take care.
