Murkuz vs Surfer SEO.
Surfer optimises a draft before it goes live. Murkuz reads what your published pages are already doing in Google and Bing. Those are two different jobs, and plenty of people run both.
Surfer scores the draft. Murkuz hands over your search data. Neither one replaces the other.
Feature Comparison
Where Surfer SEO hands off
The job ends at publish
Surfer gets a draft to a target and hands it back. What that page then earns over the following six months is a different question, and it is asked of a different source.
The SERP, not your account
Surfer reasons from what is ranking now. It does not hold the queries Google recorded for your property, or what the people who clicked went on to do on the site.
A score, not the numbers
The output is a target to hit, and it is a useful target. It is still a model of what a good page looks like, rather than a record of what your page earned.
One document at a time
The unit of work is a page. Deciding which of four hundred pages across three sites is worth touching this month is not the question Surfer is shaped to answer.
Where Murkuz carries on
We do not write content
Plainly: no drafts, no content score, no editor, no brand voice. If your problem is the draft in front of you, Surfer is the tool and Murkuz will not help.
What the published page earned
Queries, clicks, impressions and position, live from your own Search Console property, any window you ask for, with the source and the window attached to the answer.
Search Console crossed with Analytics
Search demand and on-site behaviour arrive pre-joined, so the page a query brought someone to and what they did next sit in the same answer instead of two exports.
Every site in one question
One connector covers the whole account, and 24 of the 32 tools cost no credit, so asking across the roster is not something you budget for.
