SpyFu Expands Search Competitive Intelligence Service to UK
SpyFu, a site that allows you to see what the competition is up to online, has announced the expansion of its search engine analytics services to the UK.
SpyFu says it's the first service to offer comprehensive data to the UK.
Here's the data that will be available through SpyFu UK:
- Natural search competitors
- Paid search competitors
- Competitors' Keywords
- Competitors' Cost per click
- Rankings
SpyFu launched in May 2007 and says it already sees 1 million visitors per month.
"With our tremendous growth over the past year, we were considering several opportunities for expansion," said Michael J. Roberts, president of Velocityscape, the creator of SpyFu. "We found that UK data was the most-requested feature in the SpyFu.com forums. Listening to our customers and addressing their needs is always our first priority."

I'm a paid subscriber to their service. I can't speak to the accuracy of their info, but I do know that when I visited their site today, even the homepage throws an ASP server error...I am NOT happy.

Has anyone tested the results of this application for accuracy? The information it provided for my US-based PPC clients was not accurate.
Would anyone else care to share their experiences using this service or relate its effectiveness providing improved keyword selection and cost management?
I am all for more transparency for Google's services. I just need to know that the third-party information I use is accurate, reliable and useful.
