The best part of this free tool is that shows sites advertising in Google AdWords and mapped on Google Maps by their addresses, so you have a full overview of all companies located in a particular area you’ve choosen and know what are the most profitable. For Whom SEMRush GEO May Be Useful?

For bloggers this tool can be useful to spy company that already buy AdWords and improving their AdWords campaign.

Even, you can offer local AdWord ads on your blog and help them reach a wider audience. How Does Geo Semrush Works?

First at all, go on geo.semrush.com. If you drag the map and zoom in and out you can view regions with lots of AdWords advertisers and zoom in to view their exact locations. In general, the map show you three main simbols:

    * A red circle
    * A Gold circle
    * A little windows with all company informations

Start this typing the key term “Jersey City”(ps: the image below show ‘New York’ as key term, it was a mistake). As I said above, this tool let you see red circles in the map. What does it means? In brief, they represent regions where AdWords advertisers are located. The bigger the circle are, the more advertisers are located in this region. Simple right? You can drag and zoom the map to find regions you’re looking for, with a maximum of 100 regions, sorted by number of advertisers, are shown for current map.

Now, click on the region “Jersey City”

Next, you should see Golden coins in the map which show locations of AdWords advertisers. The bigger the coin are, the more AdWords Ads this advertiser has. If you move the mouse over each Golden coins, a windows will appear with all details about the company, in particular it show you:

1. Company name(e.g. TheLadders), 2. Company domain name(e.g. TheLadders.com), 3. Link to Google Maps for this domain name, 4. Company address(e.g. 137 Varick street, New York, NY 10013-1105), 5. Number of AdWords keywords that SEMRush knows for this domain name (e.g. 41961). 6. Report button.

Where Should I Put My Ads

Today, there are thousands of  sites which you  can put your ads for free. The trick is to find the ones that work best for you. Not all that sites are  created equal  and  the  most active ones or biggest ones are not necessarily the best ones for your needs.


Traffic Exchanges, Safelist  and Social Site  are a great  marketing tool  for a  variety of  reasons. The  most obvious  reason  is that you get  lots  of  people  looking,  and  hopefully  clicking  on your website or promotional pages.

If  you are an  affiliate marketer,  then you need  to make yourself a good  splash page  to capture the leads attention and get them to click through  to your site.  You must always  be watching your results.  If or  when sales  start falling,  it is time  to  change your splash  page or  design another one.  Always  design  2 at  a time and  measure  the  results from both. This way you can scrap the ones that  don't  get a very good click through and keep the ones that convert.


If you  are going to be using  multiple free traffic  exchanges, and I recommend  that you do, your first priority should be to pick up a multi-tab web browser such as Mozilla Firefox.

Getting  free traffic  to your website is a  lot of work.  If you don't have  the  money  to  spend  on  full  blown  PPC ( pay-per-click ) campaigns  like Google  AdWords,  free traffic exchanges,  safelist and  social  site  are a great  way  to get  the traffic  you  need to succeed.
