Best for rank tracking and forecasts for SEO agencies

SEOmonitor checks your own Google position daily on one device, ties rankings to Analytics and Search Console traffic, and builds forecasts for client pitches. Starter is $73 a month on yearly billing for one website and 500 keywords, with AI answer checks on one model and no API. More sites, all four AI models and the API wait on Pro at $335 a month, so a freelancer with a few small sites should look elsewhere.

Who SEOmonitor is for

  • Fits if you pitch SEO work to clients and want forecasts built from keyword data
  • Works for agencies that report rankings next to Analytics and Search Console traffic

Who SEOmonitor is not for

  • Pricey if you look after several sites, as Starter covers one and Pro, with unlimited sites, is $335 a month
  • Skip it if you need daily competitor rankings, as competitors and the second device update weekly
  • Tight if AI answers matter, as Starter checks one model weekly, and on Pro extra AI units are $21 per 1,000, with Claude at 5 units a keyword
  • Watch out: the API is Pro only, extra keywords are $55 per 1,000, and Analytics and Search Console cost $11 a site on Pro
  • Watch out: there's no free plan, and cancelling a yearly plan recharges the months used at the monthly price

Why SEOmonitor gets a 2.2

Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.

  • CValue for moneyStarter is $73 a month billed yearly ($88 monthly) for 500 keywords on one website. That's dearer than three in four rank trackers, which start at $49 or less, but short of the dearest tenth at $139. Pro, with the API and unlimited sites, is $335 a month.
  • CFree plan and trialNo free plan, but a 14-day trial with no credit card. It covers Google tracking and AI Search on one campaign of up to 1,000 keywords.
  • CFeaturesDaily rank checks, a SERP viewer, forecasts for client proposals, traffic by keyword from Analytics and Search Console, and AI answer tracking in four models. The gap: daily checks cover only your own position on the main device; competitors and the second device update weekly.
  • CEase of useNo rating on record. You set up a campaign per site, connect Google Analytics and Search Console, and pick keywords and devices before the reports tell you much.
  • BPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with no desktop or phone app. It links to Search Console, Analytics, Google Sheets and Looker Studio, has MCP on both plans, and the API comes with Pro.

Keep SEOmonitor, or make your own?

Keep it

To replace SEOmonitor 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.

That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 17 of the 39 other rank trackers grade higher. It costs $876 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 Google Sheets among them, and has an API.

What this rests on. SEOmonitor’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.
