5 Things to Pay Attention to in a B2B Competitive Analysis

Competitive analyses are extremely important to B2B marketing strategies. They help to identify weaknesses as well as highlight where you’re having success against your competitors. To put it simply: If you’re not measuring your performance against that of your peers, you’re falling behind the competition. When starting a B2B competitive analysis, it can often seem overwhelming. It’s often a struggle to identify comparable competitors and metrics as well as sift through the mountains of data. So much information, so little time, amiright? It’s because of this that I’ve put together a list of the 5 most important things (IMO) to pay attention to. 1. What is your competition’s overall domain authority? A great place to start on your competitive analysis is with domain authority. The domain authority numbers can give you a high level view of where you stand against the competition. Domain authority basically summarizes the overall “authority” of a site. In the example below, I used Moz, which rates websites from 0-100 with 100 being the best. Of the 5 different websites I plugged in, Moz automatically identified the highest, which in this example was Apple.com.
