hey everybody in this video tutorial I'm
0:02
going to show you how to use similar web
0:04
to analyze a website and how you can
0:07
install the similar web browser
0:09
extension to get more information about
0:12
the website so to use similar web there
0:15
are basically two ways how you can use
0:17
it so the first one is to use their
0:19
their website so similar.com and if you
0:22
open up similar.com this is their uh
0:25
homepage and you can just add your uh
0:28
the website name you want to analyze so
0:32
as you can see you can not only analyze
0:34
website but you can also analyze uh
0:36
Android apps iOS apps and companies and
0:40
in terms of uh pricing they have a free
0:42
trial which you can use I think without
0:45
a credit card but even if you do not
0:47
have the free trial and you do not want
0:49
to pay for a paid plan you can still use
0:52
uh their website even if you are not
0:55
paying for it as you can see I do not
0:57
have a trial right now and I still was
1:00
able to get information about
1:02
nerdwallet.com which is a financial
1:03
education website and you get a lot of
1:06
data like total visits the device
1:09
distribution so whether they get more
1:11
traffic from desktop or the mobile
1:14
devices you get some bounce rate data
1:17
pages per visit data you get uh their
1:20
weekly traffic data as well here you can
1:23
compare it to their competitors you can
1:26
see the top countries the marketing
1:29
channels so whether get they get traffic
1:31
from dryirect organic paid referral or
1:34
social media and so on and so forth so
1:37
there's a lot of uh data here that you
1:39
can analyze and even easier way to get
1:42
some information about the website is to
1:44
use their web browser extension and uh
1:47
works in any web browser so I'm using
1:50
currently Microsoft Edge but you can do
1:52
this in Google Chrome and all you have
1:54
to do is u click on the extension icon
1:57
once you have installed it and you will
1:59
get pretty much the same data we have on
2:02
their website but the data here is a
2:04
little bit less detailed but you get the
2:06
most important information like how much
2:08
traffic the website gets what are their
2:11
main traffic sources and so on and so
2:13
forth and last but not least how you can
2:14
use uh this web browser extension and
2:16
all you have to do is search for similar
2:19
web extension and whichever web browser
2:22
you use you're going to be able to
2:23
install the extension by clicking on the
2:25
search search result and click on add
2:27
then the browser extension icon will be
2:30
added to your web browser and you're
2:31
going to be able to see and analyze any
2:34
website you want so notice how you can
2:36
use similar web and how you can install
2:39
their web browser extension
