SE Ranking

SE Ranking is an SEO platform that puts rank tracking, site audits, keyword research, and competitor analysis in one workspace. It tracks positions on Google, Bing, Yahoo, and YouTube, with separate desktop and mobile views and monitoring of the top 100 results. Beyond classic SERP tracking, it also monitors how visible your site is in AI-generated answers, covering ChatGPT, Google's AI Overviews, AI Mode, and Gemini.

The research side covers keyword metrics like search volume, difficulty, intent, and current SERP composition, so you can see what ranks before you plan content. Website audits surface technical issues, backlink tools map your link profile, and competitor research shows how rival domains perform. The platform also includes content tools, local SEO features, and reporting. An API exposes rankings and visibility data if you want to pull the numbers into your own dashboards.

SE Ranking is aimed at agencies, in-house marketing teams, and SEO professionals who manage search visibility, often across multiple sites. Pricing is subscription-based with a free trial, though the full tier structure wasn't published in the material reviewed for this listing. One regional page showed a Core plan starting at $103.20/month for the Japanese market, but that reflects regional pricing rather than the global structure.

Best for:

• Agencies tracking rankings and reporting on search performance across multiple client sites
• In-house teams monitoring visibility in both classic search and AI-generated answers
• SEO professionals comparing keyword volume, difficulty, and intent before planning content
• Site owners running regular technical audits and backlink checks
• Businesses with local footprints that need the local SEO toolset
• Teams that want API access to rankings and visibility data for custom reporting
