12 tools that solve a similar problem. Compare what each costs and what it covers.
The questions people type into search
AnswerThePublic just surfaces the questions people type into search, from $13.33 with a free tier, a narrower job than Ahrefs' full suite.
The full SEO toolkit at a smaller price
SE Ranking matches Ahrefs on the $129 starting price but runs on a trial instead of a lasting free tier.
Rank tracking and link data from Moz Pro
Moz Pro starts at $49, well under Ahrefs' $129, for a smaller site that still wants its own link data and rank tracking.
Keyword and competitor research at agency depth
Semrush goes just as deep on competitor research, starting at $139 with no free tier at all, where Ahrefs at least gives you one.
A full SEO suite at fifty dollars a month
Serpstat runs the same kind of SEO suite for $50 a month, under half of Ahrefs' $129 starting price.
Every keyword a competitor has bought or ranked for
SpyFu specializes in a competitor's paid and organic keywords specifically, starting at $39, a narrower job than Ahrefs' full crawl.
Trend alerts for eight dollars a month
Treendly sends trend alerts from $8 with a free tier, the cheapest way to watch a topic rise without paying for backlink data.
Domain Rating tracked daily, with a badge
RacoonDR just tracks Domain Rating daily and gives you a badge to display it, starting at $5.99 with a free tier, not the full toolkit Ahrefs is.
Trends spotted before they peak
Exploding Topics at $39 surfaces trends before they peak, answering what to write about next rather than how a page ranks today.
Search volumes in the results page
Keywords Everywhere puts search volumes into the results page itself at $84, a lighter habit than opening a full research suite.
Works with YouTube
Checks a WordPress post before you publish it
Yoast SEO checks a single WordPress post before it goes live, from $9.90 with a free tier, rather than crawling the web for backlinks like Ahrefs.
Five SEO tools that do not need a manual
Mangools keeps it to five tools that need no manual, at $37.70 a month, for someone who finds Ahrefs' depth more than they use.
