One question that I do have regarding micro niche finder is it's green light indicator, SOC. I have Market Samurai and use it daily, but I've become interested in MNF because of John's xfactor course.

Does anyone have a benchmark indicator that can be used in MS to give the same feel as the SOC? I do use the seo competition tools in MS, but sometimes the data gives the wrong impression.

Thoughts, comments?

Thanks,

Frank

Anyhow, I have found this, take a look, i hope this answers your question.

Is the upgrade promo still on for the first 7 days?

Will I still get all the bonuses of the $149 full version if I upgrade the trial at $97

According to the site the bonuses are:

Give you access to FIVE active market samurai modules (including "SEO Competition" without which you are DEFENSELESS against violating Golden Rule #3).
Give you FREE access to three more cutting-edge "Bonus" modules
(to be released this year) - valued at $481
Give you a Free upgrade to our "Mystery Module" - (to be released in the next 4-6
weeks) - value $167
That's $648 of Bonus Value - But only if you take action TODAY:

I wrote about the first 7 days upgrade promo in May. I'm trying to get confirmation that it still stands from the Market Samurai team (see the Newsflash good news line at the bottom of this post)

Here's more good news:

Whichever way you buy Market Samurai today, with whatever offer or promo, you will get *all* the bonuses.

The take action TODAY bit is to do with the team keeping it tight under their belt as to when they're going to start changing the way the software is bought by us Joe & Josephine Public. I don't *think* that will happen tomorrow, because right about now a lot of new Market Samurai users will be queuing up to buy as a result of the Thirty Day Challenge course that used Market Samurai. But I'm not privy to their secrets.

(I wish I was though...)

Any idea what is the "mystery module"?

Has the "mystery module" been developed and updated in MS?

This is a great thread. Thanks for all the input, you're helped me make my decision.

It looks to me like M.S. is the way to go. I signed up for the free trial and got the offer in my email to buy for $87, but as a previous post says, this offer does end at Midnight Sept 10, so if you're thinking about getting it, I guess now is the time.

Boadicea

Neongreen, the "mystery module" has indeed been released in Market Samurai: it's a Rank Tracker tool, enabling you to track your rankings for any keyword you wish (for any number of keywords), & for any domain or url, so you can even track other pages' rankings alongside your own.

It is superb, can track your rankings in Google, Yahoo and Bing (previously MSN), right down to 1000th position, in any one of 234 regions.

It tells you what your current ranking position is every time you update the figures using the tool, and shows you a graph of how you've gone up or down since you started using the rank tracker. It's brilliant.



ArtfulWebsites: you can sign up to the 30 day challenge here: Thirty Day Challenge and yes, you can get a further $10 off by buying before midnight Thursday 10th Sept (US Pacific time), by using the link and discount code in the thread that James links to above.

For anyone reading this who has missed that deadline, remember that you can still currently get Market Samurai for $97 if you buy it within the first 7 days of your free trial; that's only $10 more than the discount you get using the special THANKYOU30DC link and discount code that runs out Thursday midnight.

I`ve never used anything else except Market Samurai. Works great so I don`t need anything additionally.

However, I wonder what the users of the new KE 2.0 can say, especially the ones who have tried MS too! (that JV miner tool looks pretty good - I wish MS would have a similar functionality soon )

Ok I just pulled the trigger on Market Samurai for $87 before the midnight deadline and I'm glad I did. A friend showed me some of the features of this software and it's looks like it will be all I need.

Hi Everyone.

I just download the trial version of MS. I have KWE and I like it. But I guess a person can't have to many tools!

Oh, I think I saw during the trail you can get it for $89.00, If am not mistaking.

I thing that's what I saw.

But what I'm seeing, I like...

Thanks

Hey Ray,

I think the clock expired on this, but if you ping 30DC 2009 version, there "was" a 40% discount on Samurai.

As a 30 day challenger, you can now get Market Samurai for $87 instead of the regular price of $149. That’s a discount of 42%. I can’t believe the Noble Samurai boys are offering Market Samurai at this price but there it is…what can I do.

PS: I bought MNF (v4.2) 6 months ago ~ who wants it for 33% off?

Hi Everyone,

After reading many of the posts above I have decided that Market Samurai is the one to buy.

Thanks for all of the valuable insight into these products.

Glad I checked out this thread as I nearly bought Keyword Elite 2.0 last week.

Cheers,

I have been using Market Samurai since last year's 30 day challenge and I love it. It is interesting to note that Ed Dale and Dan Raine are not the only gurus who use/promote it. Michelle MacPherson also does and I was just looking the new StomperNet site and they do to.

All those millionaires can't be wrong!

Waldo Claassen

I love Market Samurai with all of its features.
Bought at the discounted price of $87.
I like the fact that it is a once off purchase price and that the product gets updated on a regular basis

I have all the three but but I think Micro Niche Finder is the best software.
It is the easiest of the three to use and generates a handful of long tail micro niche keywords in seconds and the research is pretty easy.
In Keyword Elite, if you are not aware of how to use the tool, you are going to go nuts using it.
I would never prefer Market Samurai.

I got KE 2.O and am finding it difficult to use for seo.
It seems to be more for ppc.

I'll have to ask how to get the most out of it for seo.

I have no problem with MNF, just think of some keyword
ideas and mnf will tell you the search count, competition,
and strength of competiton.

Then just create content and get backlinks.

jsanderz

Hi,
I have been using MS for the last few weeks and it's great piece of software, however, for keyword research I still find MNF quicker and easier. I think the two programmes complement each other, as MS has got some great features.

Im having a MAJOR problem here with Market Samurai and i hope someone can give me a good answer to the issue.

I just put my keywords that ive researched in Market Samurai that were SUPPOSEDLY getting no less than 200 searches a day and did seo, articles, etc, on these keywords.

Now, ive gone and put these same kewyords up in googles keyword tool:

Search-based keyword tool

and im seeing the same words that I was getting at least 200 searches a day, turns out to be 200 searches a MONTH in the google tool. This data discrepancy is extremely disconcerting to say the least, has me wasting time and money, and id like to know just who am I now to rely on when it comes to search volume for a particular keyword? Market Samurai or Google?

Im believing the Google tool is the one thats giving me the right data since I rank number 2 out of 5,000,000 for one of my keywords, and im only getting like 1 visitor a day to my site. What the hell man?

Boris_yo

Sometimes Market Samurai and Micro Niche Finder give wrong results when determining the size of competing pages. There is nothing to do here, however i rely more on Micro Niche Finder than on Market Samurai.

Mr Marketer

I'm chiming in for Market Samurai too! Love it. While other programs are charging monthly, you can get MS for a one time payment of $97

fypnlp

I'm going to stick put my 2 cents in. Market Samurai all the way.

Because:

No monthly fee.
Great training videos - via the 30 day challenge
Great one time price (I got a 42% discount)
I can install MS on my pc and my laptop under one license.

Can't argue with that!

I give to vote to MS. Even I was newbie before, the support and videos tutorials plus TDC really help me to find low competition but high search on some IM niche. Really a great stuff keywords TOOL!

Hi,
I reinstalled Market Samurai this morning and received an Activation limit message. I emailed MS support at around 6.45am (uk time), and within 15 mins I received an email to reactivate my account.
Now that's what I call support.
Thanks MS.

I've read really good things about both MS and MNF. I don't think that you can go wrong with either software you'll still end up at your destination. Kind of like saying "Which is vehicle better the Lexus or the BMW? You'll still get from point A to point B but it depends on your personal preference".

benmarkal

Personally, I like Keyword Elite 2.0 which I own and use exclusively. I haven't had the honor of using the other two programs, but I must say that the newly released Keyword Elite 2.0 is something to behold...

fthomas137

Well, I was a MS purist for some time and I've started to use MNF with MS and I find it to be a winning combination! Yes they do come up with similar keywords but I find MNF is great for fast overview of a niche, and (HINT,HINT), I love the brainstorm button!

But MS is superior when it comes to hard analysis of the keywords with actual competition facts and figures.

So, I find that I use them both together. I wish MNF had the ability to use proxies like MS to quickly pull up stats on keywords, but I guess you get what you get!

Hi


I have two questions, firstly how accurate are the results in terms of the actual amount of links and the anchor text?

When I do my backlin research I use everything possible, yahoo, google, msn, backlinkwatch, I find I sometimes will find links on msn that weren on the others and vice versa, how accurate is this?

Also I am only really interested in information about the other sites in my niche's links and anchor text, is this the best option for that kind of research of is there something cheaper that will give me exactly what I need?or is there something else?

32paul52

I believe you have to take different Approach - what are you looking to do?

MS is good for Search engine ranking - natural, but the competition is detailed and in depth
MNF is fast and takes a simple approach (grwta if you are looking to do many small niche sites.

Keyword elite - is power is you are running PPC

But the whole picture is they are "Guides" - and can be wholly inacurate- people see to process them as "this is down to the letter- written in blood numbers" - sorry its not that simple.........

Same goes for backlink- still a guide too

Best Regards - Paul Easton - Security Alarm - Roofers Auckland -Gas Fitter Auckland

marky12345

So what is this good for then? Being able to gage how hard it could be to rank for a certain term? Is there anything else that can do that?

davwab

Hi everyone,

I guess it depends on your budget and how much time you wanna spend researching your niche.
Micro Niche Finder is quick and less expensive.
Market Samurai has more features, which means more time to do your research.
I don’t own Keyword Elite, But I did try a 14 day trial version of Keyword Elite 2.0.
I just didn’t have enough time to try all its features, 14 days went by fast.
But, I like to buy it in a near future.

merryvinson

I use MNF and I love it. It gives you the green light for keywords with low competition and I have been able to be on the front page page of Google within hours of publishing my campaign. I have been able to find great micro niches and been able to dominate it. I tired Keyword elite, it was not my favorite. MNF helps me find affilate products, amazon products and ezine articles related to a certain keyword.

I have not tried Market Samurai but so far I love MNF. Is it MS a monthly subscription?

Boadicea

No, there's no monthly subscription as yet. Market Samurai is currently a one-off purchase of $147 if you take the full trial period; however you can get it for $97 if you purchase within the first 7 days of your trial.

This is superb value. It's likely to move towards a subscription in the future, so the time to buy is now

Is there any coupon for MNF now? I miss the window of opportunity...

warrior123

I've used all 3 keyword tools and if you are on the fence on deciding which tool is best -- well it really depends on what your main objective is. I would say MNF is the easiest, less complicated tool for finding low competition keywords.

Market Samurai really excels in digging down further and looking at the SEO competition (checking on PR strength, Page backlinks, age of domain, etc) -- although this can all be done for free with extension like SEO Quake.

I think the best feature of Keyword Elite is the "Adwords Site Targeter" function.

Traffic Travis is another good option for SEO competition analysis.

Axel1

Has anyone else had a problem with Market Samurai pulling what seems like questionable data? For example, I was researching a particular keyword phrase and the SEOC was approx. 3600, which was shockingly low. I was ready to put down 3k on a domain to target these keywords as it looked like an extremely promising niche. The next day the SEOC was at 3.5mm making it a very competitive keyword phrase. Possibly I did something wrong though.

hukumat

all are great,,,, but I think Market Samurai is really fine...

strobe

Currently there's a 12 day trial - but full version is $149. Any chance (still) of getting in the discount??

I've opted for the 12 day trial - but the payment option takes me to a $149 paypal link

MY bad - have just purchased for $97

steveaaa

I have MS and love it. BUT it is missing two important points, and I do hope the developers are listening (one has been mentioned by another poster).

1. There is no way to compares SOC's quickly. I mean when you are looking at 100's of keywords, you have to click on them, create tabs, go over to those tabs, run other reports.... yakkks
MNF gives you a pretty decent SOC in-line for all keywords. Granted, you have to do more research, but it is a great start. MS does give you allintitle results in-line, but that is not as good as MNF's SOC (I LOVE allinanchor as an indicator, and MS misses that one TOTALLY).

2. Competitive Analysis - I think factors like allinanchor are very important. Seeing pure number of incoming links to a page is not enough. You have to have a column for allinanchor (for the specific target phrase).

My grip #1 is forcing me now to buy MNF. Market Sam, are you around??

G Singh

I'm using the trial version of Keyword Elite. I'm personally having problems. The program freezes quite often, it shuts down on its own, and at times I find that it doesn't up data for highly searched terms.

But saying this I am using the trial version, which could be a beta version that Brad has released to people who purchased Google Sniper. Anyways, when it does work, I am impressed, but that feeling doesn't occur as often as I had hoped. Maybe the full version is different. If anyone is having similar problems with the trial version, let me know, at least I'll know its not a problem on my end.

I had the full version of KE2 and it froze up with me and the computer as well
several times. Everything the support team suggested over 6 days of trying didn't work and I think they were only too happy to tell me how to get a refund

They have a mis-conception that most faults are caused by a virus checker
or firewall but in my experience removing the VC and firewall made no difference
whatsoever

Its a pity becasue KE2 looks good but I'll be sticking to Market Sumarai
