About

BudgetSEO.ai is an affordable Ahrefs alternative for rank tracking, keyword research, and competitor analysis, starting at $9/mo with a free plan (15 keywords, no credit card).

It gives exact Google organic positions in the top 100 (by country, language, and device), automatic weekly (or daily on Pro) rank updates, keyword volume/difficulty/CPC/trend data, competitor domain overviews, rank-change and competitor-keyword alerts, and AI visibility tracking for Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT mentions, and (on Pro) Gemini prompts.

  • Free forever for basic use;
  • Starter is $9/mo for 150 tracked keywords and AI features;
  • Pro is $39/mo for 750 keywords with daily checks on up to 100 ranking terms.

Data lookups are cached so you only pay for fresh results, keeping costs far below Ahrefs Lite while covering the core SEO workflow most small sites and agencies actually need.

FAQ

How is budgetSEO so much cheaper than Ahrefs Lite?

We focus on rank tracking, keyword research, competitor overviews, and competitor keyword alerts. Free accounts check rankings when you click. Starter and Pro update automatically, and every lookup is cached so we pay for data once and pass the savings on.

How accurate are the rankings?

We check Google’s live results for the exact country, language and device you choose, and report your exact organic position anywhere in the top 100.

What counts as a lookup?

A Keyword Explorer or Domain Overview search that is not already cached. Searches anyone ran in the last 1-3 days load instantly and do not count.

How do free rank checks work?

Free accounts track 15 keywords on one site and check them when you click. Each keyword can be refreshed every 30 days. Starter and Pro check automatically.

Can I track rankings daily?

Yes, on the Pro plan. Up to 100 of your ranking keywords can be rechecked every day, on top of automatic weekly updates for the rest of your list.

Which AI tools does AI visibility cover?

Google AI Overviews, including whether they cite you on tracked keywords and how often they mention your domain. ChatGPT mention counts are for the United States in English. Pro also asks your saved prompts in ChatGPT and Gemini.

What if I need more than Pro?

Agency is usage-based. The quote follows the projects, keywords, and lookups your clients need, and includes team seats, webhooks, and custom integrations. Open the chat from the pricing page and we will scope it.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Manage or cancel your subscription in one click from the billing portal. Your data stays on the free plan.
