Which one is for you
Pick Keyword.com if
- Fits if you run a small site and want weekly Google rankings for a few dollars a month
- Works for clients who want a live ranking report they can open any time
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you need Bing, YouTube or other engines, as it tracks Google only
- Pricey if you want daily checks on a long list, at $70 a month for 500 keywords
- Tight if you want reports on your own domain, which is an extra $29 a month
- Watch out: desktop plus mobile for one phrase counts as two keywords
- Watch out: AI checks in API models like Claude or Grok cost four times the credits of ChatGPT checks
Pick SERPed if
- Fits if you want rank tracking, backlinks and reports under one login and can live with a keyword budget
- Works for freelancers who send white-label PDFs to clients and can pay for the Agency add-on
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you want a free plan, as there's only a $7 trial that rebills afterwards
- Tight if you track many keywords: 2,500 a month on Premium is about 83 checked daily
- Pricey if you need client dashboards, which are a $29 a month add-on ($20 billed yearly) on top of the plan
- Watch out: the $7 trial is shown on Premium and Ultimate but not on Enterprise, and everything is web only
How we grade them
| 2.6GPAKeyword.comGood | 1.6GPASERPedWeak | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | A$3 a month for 50 weekly keywords on yearly billing ($4 monthly), with the API, MCP, Looker Studio and unlimited sites. That's under 60% of this category's cheaper quarter ($10). Daily checks cost more: 50 keywords are $13 a month, and 500 are $70. | D$53 a month on yearly billing for Premium ($79 monthly), against a category middle of $19.99 and a dearer quarter starting at $49. For that you get about 83 keywords checked daily, and the client dashboards need an Agency add-on on top. |
| Free plan and trial | CNo free plan, but a 14-day trial with 100 keywords and 20 AI credits, and no card needed. | DNo free plan. The way in is a 30-day trial for $7 that rebills at the plan price afterwards, which is a card up front. There's a 30-day money-back guarantee too, but that isn't a trial. |
| Features | CWeekly or daily Google checks to the top 50 or 100, down to ZIP code, with saved results pages, share of voice, Maps tracking and AI answer tracking in ten models. The gap: rank tracking covers Google only, and no other search engine is listed. | CRank tracking by country, city and device plus keyword research, backlink and site analysis and white-label reports. The listing itself flags gaps: monthly keyword caps, and client dashboards locked behind the Agency add-on. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record. You pick weekly or daily, depth, device and place for your keywords, and desktop plus mobile for one phrase counts twice, so there's a bit to work out first. | CNo store rating on record. It's a web suite with sites, keywords and URLs to set up before it's any use, and a lot of tools to learn. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb only, with no desktop or phone app. It links to Search Console, Analytics, Looker Studio, DashThis and Oviond, and has an API and an MCP server for Claude Code, Codex or Cursor. | CWeb only, and the listing names no integrations or API. Everything happens in the browser. |
| Best for | Google rank tracking for small sites | rank tracking bundled with an SEO suite |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
