SEO Competition is simple. We hate to use the word spy, however it basically is what we do.
When we look at a competitor we look at:

How many back links do they have?
What type of anchor text do they have?
What Keywords do they have?
Are they using the best keywords?
How much traffic are they getting?
How old is the web site?
What is their SEO score?
Are they breaking any rules?
How many of them are their?
Are they in yahoo directory? Dmoz?
We will even be able to tell you when their domain expires
The biggest question we get – “Do I have a Chance to compete?”

Once we do our analysis you will know exactly what you are up against. So many jump in with out knowing and it results in wasted time. Find out what your competition is up to and it very well could mean the difference of being at the top or not.
