Welcome

What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first

2.6

GPA, above 34 of the 39 other rank trackers we grade

Keyword.com is a web-based rank tracker for Google with a separate AI visibility tracker. Keywords are checked weekly or daily to a top-50 or top-100 depth, with saved SERP snapshots, local and Maps tracking, and share of voice. AI visibility tracks prompts in ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Google AI Mode and AI Overviews, and other models, on a credit allowance.

To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Keyword.com, taken from its own pages and our grades.

The report card

Best for Google rank tracking for small sites

Keyword.com is a web rank tracker for Google, from $3 a month for 50 keywords checked weekly, with a separate AI visibility tracker on a credit budget. It tracks Google only. Daily checks cost about four times the weekly price, desktop and mobile count as two keywords, API models use four times the AI credits, and reports on your own domain are $29 a month extra.

ToolGPA report cardKeyword.comGraded Oct 23, 2026
SubjectGradeComment
Value for moneyA$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.
Free plan and trialCNo free plan, but a 14-day trial with 100 keywords and 20 AI credits, and no card needed.
FeaturesCWeekly 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.
Ease of useCNo 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.
Platforms and integrationsBWeb 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.
Grade point averageGood, out of 4.02.6

An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.

Who Keyword.com is for

  • 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

Who it is not for

  • 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

Good to know

Good for

  • Small sites that want cheap weekly Google rankings
  • Agencies sharing live ranking reports with clients
  • Teams adding AI answer tracking on a small credit budget

Worth knowing

  • Rank tracking covers Google only; no other search engine is listed.
  • Prices assume weekly checks; daily tracking costs about four times as much, and desktop plus mobile for one phrase counts as two keywords.
  • A white-label domain for shared reports is an add-on at $29 a month or $278 a year.
  • AI checks in API models such as Claude, DeepSeek or Grok cost four times the credits of chat-app engines like ChatGPT.

Keep it, or make your own?

Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.

Keep it

To replace Keyword.com you would be making search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 34 of the 39 other rank trackers we grade. It costs $36 a year.

What you could make

  • Reports: an app builder makes this well.

What you could not

  • Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
  • Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
  • The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept.
  • It plugs into other products, Google Search Console, Google Analytics and Looker Studio among them, and has an API.

What this rests on. Keyword.com’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
