Competitor Tracking for SEO
Find the search terms a rival wins. Compare both sites by link strength, trust and traffic. Then choose the gap that gives you the best next page to create.
What the check compares
Scores head to head
Compare link strength, trust and monthly traffic. The gap shows whether stronger links can help your next page rank.
Keyword gap
Find search terms where your rival ranks in the top 20. See how many people search for each term and what ads cost.
Check the trust behind each score
TrueDR checks whether trust and traffic support a site's DR. A wide gap points to weak links.
See a rival's next move in time to act
See when a rival earns new links or ranks for a new term. The change can point to one page you need to create. It can also show when your site needs more trust.

Competitor tracking FAQ
What is competitor tracking in SEO?
Competitor tracking shows how other sites grow. It tracks their DR, trust, keywords, backlinks, and AI mentions. You can spot a gap and act on it.
Is this competitor check free?
Yes. After email verification, one check per competitor pair is free. You get live DR, TrueDR, and traffic for both websites side by side, plus a sample of keywords your competitor ranks for that you don't. Continuous monitoring, the full gap list, and change alerts are part of Pro.
What is a keyword gap?
The keywords a competitor ranks in Google's top 20 for while your site doesn't rank at all. Each one is evidence that a nearby competitor found demand your site has not captured. Treat the list as candidates, then check search volume, relevance, and the DR bar before choosing what to pursue.
How do I track a competitor's Domain Rating over time?
Each listed website gets a free public profile. It shows DR and TrueDR history, plus weekly and monthly changes. Pro tracks score changes, backlinks, and AI visibility. It sends an alert when a number moves.
Which competitor metrics matter most?
Three cover most decisions: the DR gap (how their backlink strength compares with yours), the keyword gap (what they rank for that you don't), and trust quality (whether TrueDR discounts part of their headline DR because the supporting evidence looks weak or spam-heavy).
Can I see whether a competitor's DR is earned?
TrueDR adjusts a listed website's DR using backlink quality, traffic validation, and spam evidence. A wide gap between DR and TrueDR means the trust check discounts part of the headline score, giving you more context before copying that competitor's tactics.
