Market Samurai is a powerful software suite with several amazing tools built in. It is designed as – find, research, monitor and spy affiliate weapon. Once set up properly it can give full market analysis on any desired keyword, and monitor results as the website is built.
The main problem why most marketers are not ranking on search engines and are not making any money with their affiliate programs is that they never really did their homework. And that is – detailed keyword research. It may seem as hard to learn and complicated process and most people just skip it, but really – it is not. Market Samurai is amazing for extensive keyword research and will give your website excellent foundations for getting quality traffic. And it’s not that complicated to master.
Let me name just several main reasons why affiliates are failing in ranking Google, getting quality traffic and making money online:
- 1. Choosing unrelated keywords - with the content on their website
- 2. Choosing high-competition keywords that are extremely difficult to rank without investing huge amount of money
- 3. Choosing unprofitable keywords or keywords that have poor commercial value
- 4. Choosing wrong keywords that nobody enters into search engines
- 5. Wrong display of keywords on pages – wrong On-page optimization – resulting in red flag or simple ignore from search engines
With Market Samurai all that can be easily avoided.
Market Samurai is comprised of 8 powerful tools that give an edge when choosing your keywords. The thing is, without proper research, you will end up with a website that nobody visits.
Let me just briefly describe those 8 features before I plunge into detailed review:
- Rank Tracker – This is a tool for checking your search engine ranking with your keywords.
- Keyword Research – Extremely powerful feature of Market Samurai that does in-depth keyword analysis
- SEO Competition - Gives deep analysis of top 10 pages ranked for particular keyword
- Domains – A tool for searching available new or expired domains around a desired keyword.
- Monetization – A tool that can find products related to your keyword and actually show you the most profitable products to advertise
- Find Content – Find a content related to specific keyword. Perfect for filling up new websites
- Publish Content – Publishes content directly from Market Samurai to many wordpress blogs.
- Promotions – Backlink opportunities tool that helps you find perfect places to plant your backlinks. Check all about link building.
Each of these features could be a great product itself. Actually, there are lots of programs and services that offer only one feature, like niche keyword finder or website rank tracker. With Market Samurai you can have everything in one place.
Market Samurai Rank Tracker feature
Rank tracker is a Market Samurai tool for monitoring your pages performance on 3 main search engines – Google, Yahoo and Bing. You can get ranking results for broad and exact phrased keywords. It is possible to add unlimited number of websites and unlimited number of keywords for tracking. Of course, more keywords to track results in longer waiting for Market Samurai to do its job.
Some 20-30 keywords for 1 particular domain takes about 2 minutes to check on all 3 search engines with broad and phrase match and search depth of 100. Search depth can be set from 10 to 1000
Market Samurai uses Majestic SEO for tracking your website backlinks which is good because Majestic SEO can find more backlinks then any other tool as they use their own crawlers. Alternative is setting your backlink source to Yahoo Site Explorer. It works great too.
Cool thing is that you can track and compare your competition rankings and backlinks number on desired keywords just by adding their domain in Market Samurai project.
Not only that it is much faster compared to manually tracking your results, you can easily notice that some keywords are not ranking well and focus more on improving those pages. Monitoring your results with Market Samurai from day to day and saving reports is a great time-saver and perfect for making decisions on your next steps regarding your website rank improvements.
Market Samurai Keyword Research feature
Keyword Research tool is the most powerful feature of Market Samurai. I cannot stress enough the importance of choosing the most relevant keywords to your website topic. Once main keyword is chosen, Market Samurai will offer huge number of related keywords. Some will be closely related to the topic of your website and those are the one you will select for further analysis. But some will have nothing to do even remotely to your website content and should be deleted from the list.
Main purpose of the tool is to select all relevant keywords to the search and eliminate unrelated. With Market Samurai filtering system finding relevant keywords is extremely fast and can save so much time compared to doing it manually.
So, how to use Market Samurai to find your relevant keywords:
- Add Keywords - you can add as many extra keywords for analysis
- Google Keyword Tool - merged with Market Samurai and generates synonyms for any selected keyword
- Add Permutations - swaps word order of selected keywords
- Delete Keywords - by clicking “x”
- Negative Keywords filter - removes all keywords with the word you type in the field
- Positive Keywords filter - keeps only the keywords with the word typed in the field

With Market Samurai you can quickly select and create a list of relevant keywords for your website.
