    It was a game-changer when it appeared, but might mislead SEO teams into just copying competitors content and rehashing what was already said. On the other hand, it does allow you to easily see what Google values for page 1.

Performance of Surfer Across Market Features

Surfer Likes & Dislikes

Like

I like the fact that it gathers topics of all competitor pages and makes it easy to craft a content brief. Also, the LSI keywords are a good addition, although I feel not a lot of people are aware how they are supposed to use them.
