Picked a $200 a month SEO tool over a free one last spring in Ohio

I went with SEMrush instead of just using Google Search Console and free keyword planners, and after 6 months my local client pages finally started sticking on the first page for once, has anyone else found paying for tools actually pays off or am I just lucky?

Did you try turning it off and on again first?

Yeah nah, it's usually not that deep. Half the time people just panic and make it sound way worse than it actually is. A quick restart fixes like 90% of computer problems honestly. Unless your hard drive is literally clicking or there's smoke coming out, you're probably fine. Some folks just enjoy the drama of a tech emergency when really their browser just froze up.

You ever notice how those same people never just close the laptop and walk away?
