⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ בתור מישהו שעובד שנים עם אתרי תוכן וקידום אורגני, הופתעתי ממש לטובה מהמערכת. הכול מרגיש פשוט, ברור וחכם. מחקר מילות המפתח מדויק, התוכן יוצא טבעי, והחיבור בין הכתיבה, הקישורים הפנימיים והפרסום האוטומטי חוסך המון זמן. מה שהכי בלט לי זה שהמערכת באמת מבינה עברית, וזה משהו שכמעט לא קיים בכלי SEO אחרים. מומלץ מאוד לכל מי שרוצה לקדם אתר בלי להסתבך עם עשרות כלים שונים.
