I use the Sprout SEO ???? browser extension every day, and it’s an essential tool in my toolkit. The latest update is another milestone for anyone working in SEO.
1️⃣ Are you struggling with optimising for “near me” queries, and wish there was a way to accurately simulate local searches from specific locations? This update lets you change your Google location to any GPS coordinate, making local SEO research so much more precise and efficient.
2️⃣ Integration of live Google Trends data directly into the SERPs is another feature that stands. This can help me quickly assess whether a particular trend is worthwhile. It saves time and focusses efforts where they matter most.
3️⃣ Reviewing the “People Also Asked” section has been a goldmine of inspiration when it comes to content creation. It uncovers related topics and questions that resonate with audiences, allowing for more comprehensive and engaging content strategies.
Huge kudos to the Sprout team for their hard work in adding these features and addressing real challenges we face in the field. Your dedication shows in the continued quality and usefulness of the extension.
If you haven’t tried Sprout yet, I recommend checking it out. It might just make your SEO work a whole lot easier.

A great and comprehensive tool that makes a lot of other tools redundant. The “other tools” tab is also very useful for working faster. I’m very happy with it! What I’m missing is information about href-langs, and it would also be great if I could use the icon to see whether the page has a canonical and whether it is self-referencing.
