Haven’t Tried WebCEO Yet?
It’s a Powerful, High Quality Ahrefs Alternative

A 14-Day Trial. Instant Rank Checks. Branded reports. Unlimited user logons.

WebCEO is a solid all-in-one SEO toolset, i.e. a marketing platform for keyword research, rank tracking, backlink checks, toxic link cleanup, discovery of new link building opportunities, website SEO & technical audits, social media analytics, traffic analysis and competitor research.

Let’s dive into a detailed comparison of WebCEO and Ahrefs

The most important features WebCEO has and Ahrefs does not have:

A free 14-day trial. Try a full-featured SEO platform at no charge. No obligation, no fees, no credit card required

Collaborate with your team in real time at no extra cost. Manage projects together, delegate tasks, track their progress, share reports and never break deadlines

Track rankings for the unique number of keywords specified in the subscription details. More locations won’t drain your keyword limit as with the other SEO tools

Delegate toxic link analysis to an intelligent automatic system instead of checking thousands of backlinks manually, trying to figure out which backlink is good and which is bad

Make the most cost-effective decisions relying on the analytics data in your marketing dashboard due to the Google Analytics and Google My Business integrations

Increase your visibility. Save your time and get an updated list of the best content submission resources handpicked for you by the WebCEO editorial team. Be found by your local customers on the sites they use

Collect SEO leads (potential clients) while you sleep by embedding a "Free SEO audit" widget to your site. Use it to automatically send a free SEO report and collect their contact details. Offer them SEO services and earn high margins

Brand reports with your logo, header, footer, color scheme. Impress your clients with professional-looking SEO reports

Get a bird-eye view on all your SEO strengths and weaknesses with an all-in-one SEO report. Get it automatically emailed on a schedule

Be super-flexible: enjoy scheduled rank checks, or get an instant rank check anytime if you need to prepare an urgent report for your client

Be universal and track rankings on all popular search engines, not only Google: YouTube (#2 world search engine), Yahoo, Bing, AOL, DuckDuckGo and others

Add value to your marketing software with the SEO metrics powered by WebCEO. Feed them to your software with WebCEO API, for no additional charge

Get your site indexed quickly. Create and submit an XML sitemap for your site in two clicks using the Sitemap Generation tool

Maximize your earnings with minimal expense using a confidential service. You don’t have to develop SEO tools, place your branding on WebCEO. From head to toes, the White Label Domain will absolutely disguise WebCEO being at its core. Resell SEO tools on behalf of your own company or provide access to your partners and clients to your branded SEO tools on your own domain
