Which one is for you
Pick SE Ranking if
- Fits if you track lots of keywords daily across several client sites
- Works for small marketing teams who want research, audits and tracking under one login
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you're one person with one site, as Core is $103.20 a month even on yearly billing and there's no lower plan
- Tight if you need old data, since Core keeps 6 months of history and has 1 manager seat; extra seats start at $16 a month
- Pricey if you want white-label reports, as the Agency Pack is $69 a month extra and sold on yearly billing only
- Watch out: deeper AI search tracking is an add-on at $71.20 a month on yearly billing ($89 monthly)
- Watch out: payments are non-refundable unless the service wasn't delivered as promised, and there's no desktop or phone app
Pick SEOmator if
- Fits if you run SEO for a B2B SaaS product and want pages drafted for you to approve
- Works for agencies and teams that need many seats, since seats and projects are unlimited on every plan
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if your site isn't SaaS, as the agent's playbook is built around SaaS pages
- Skip it if you want yearly billing, which isn't offered yet
- Tight if you need to budget, since the pricing page doesn't say what tasks cost in credits
- Watch out: the new plans open to a waitlist, so you may wait for an account
- Too light for regular use on the free plan, at 500 credits a month; extra credits are $10 per 1,000

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.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
