How we grade them
| 1.8GPASEO Site CheckupWeak | 1.6GPASilktideWeak | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CBasic is $29 a month billed yearly ($39 monthly) for 3 sites, right on this category's middle of $29.

| Free plan and trial | DNo free plan. The 7-day trial bills you when it ends unless you cancel, so it takes payment details up front. A free one-off checkup sits on the homepage. | FNothing free on the pricing page and no trial listed, so access starts with a quote. |

The gap: deep analysis watches only 50, 100 or 300 URLs by plan, and Basic gets 1 competitor. | CGovernance testing, content and link checks, AI visibility, analytics and a task workflow. The pricing page lists three plans without saying what each includes beyond SSO and SOC 2 on Complete. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record. The explanations are in plain English, but you still add sites, URLs, keywords and competitors before the monitoring tells you much. | CNo store rating on record. A platform for organizations, set up through its team. |

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.
