Ask HN: What do you use to track what your comeptitors are doing?
Do you guys track what your competitors are doing such as their social media, blog, press, website changes, backlinks, etc?
If so, what do you use to easily do this?
- canatan01 13y agoWe do sometimes. We use Google Alerts with the names of our competitors as the keywords. And (seo)Moz for backlink tracking.

- ryetoasthumor 13y agohttps://en.mention.com/ https://en.mention.com/ I really like Mention, since they also have a mobile app and the free tier does everything I want. We used it to hop into conversations on forums about car buying. I agree with u/canatan01 that Moz is best for backlink tracking.

- Im_Talking 13y agoWhat your competitors are doing is not material. Ask your customers what they want, and give it to them. In all my years, I have not altered my course a single iota based on what a competitor is doing. Pointless.
