Just starting SEO on a new domain myself, so this is fresh in my mind. Just tweeted about it actually 😀

IMO there are plenty of free tools out there to start with before you need to pay. Once you get into SEO and realize what you need, then start looking for paid tools.

I'd also recommend signing up for a free Ahrefs account so you can track your progress with number of referring domains, domain rating, etc. The free version also shows a ton of opportunities, site issues, etc.

Two of the most impactful things you can do at this point is get backlinks and do basic keyword research for the content you publish on the site. You could spend years on just these two things and get a ton of benefit from each before doing anything else.

Good luck!

If you are serious about SEO, there's a lot to learn. I recommend visiting this website, where you'll find a wealth of free learning material: learningseo.io/

My goal is to get the domain authority of designroaster.com to be ≠ 0
