for keyword research + backlink analysis, most people still get the best balance from a few core tools.
Ahrefs is probably the strongest overall for backlink analysis and large exports. very good for competitor research, link intersect, and keyword gap analysis.
Semrush is more all-in-one. strong keyword database, site audits, and reporting. good value if you want multiple SEO features in one platform.
Majestic is still useful if your main focus is backlinks and link quality metrics.
for cheaper options, LowFruits and Keysearch are solid for finding low competition keywords without huge monthly costs.
if export features matter heavily, Ahrefs and Semrush are usually the easiest to work with at scale.
