FAQ

Answers, straight.

Is FastaSEO better than Semrush?

They do different jobs. Semrush is a research, data and monitoring suite for any website. FastaSEO fixes Showit on-page and technical SEO, page by page. Neither replaces the other.

Can FastaSEO replace Semrush?

For Showit on-page and technical SEO, yes. For keyword research, rank tracking and backlinks, no — that is what Semrush is built for.

Do I need both FastaSEO and Semrush?

If you run content marketing or manage many client sites, both earn their place. If you just want your Showit site launch-ready for search and AI, FastaSEO on its own is enough.

Why not just use Semrush on my Showit site?

Semrush flags issues but does not tell you how to fix them inside Showit. It was built for WordPress-style sites and misses Showit specifics — background images, hidden headings, drag-and-drop layouts.

Which is better for agencies?

Pair them. Use Semrush for research and monitoring across clients, and FastaSEO to deliver the Showit fixes Semrush only flags.

How much do FastaSEO and Semrush cost?

FastaSEO is $99, billed yearly during beta. Semrush starts at $139.95 per month. Different scope, different price.
