Over the past few months, we’ve been working on something unique that we believe is missing in this industry: an affordable, accessible, and most importantly: free tool for monitoring search engine rankings. We’ve launched the SERP Monitor project.
Why our product is better for customers
We believe that established companies in the industry, such as Ahrefs, SERanking, and Keyword.com, are taking advantage of a lack of competition and forcing users to spend money even on features they don’t use. Monthly payments cover a large number of tools and API accesses that are used only sporadically. We’ve developed a tool that focuses only on what the user needs, and they pay only for that. How do we achieve this strategy? Through a credit system.
Credits are better than monthly payments
You might think, “Sure, credits will be expensive and expire after a few months.” That’s not the case with SERPmonitor. Credits are cheap, and most importantly, they don’t expire. What you pay for is yours why should it expire? That’s nonsense. Check out the prices:
- 1 000 credits / $3.90
- 2 000 credits / $7.50
- 3 000 credits / $9.90
- 5 000 credits / $15.00
- 10 000 credits / $28.00
- 30 000 credits / $69.00
- 100 000 credits / $189.00
How do credits work?
It’s simple. One credit = 1 position. Note that if you want positions lower than 0–10, you need to use an additional credit for each sub-position. Unfortunately, this system is used almost everywhere since Google recently changed the logic for tracking positions (article 2). With the credit system, you can get the price down to $0.0019 per keyword position. So if you’re interested in tracking 20 keywords, why would you pay $10 to $50 a month when you can get it for just a few cents. And as a bonus, you can decide how often the process should run – whether positions should be checked daily, every 3 or 6 days, or only upon manual request.

Does the SERP Monitor offer anything else?
Yes, the current version includes the option to check indexing. So, if you’re wondering whether your subpage is visible on Google, you can do this manually using the “site:url” command, no problem. But issues arise if you want to check a list of subpages or domains. In SERP Monitor, you can do this all at once for up to 30,000 subpages. Again, one task = one subpage = 1 credit.
It also offers the option to research keywords. Currently, we can check 25 keywords at once and determine search volume, competition, and CPC. Again, one keyword = 1 credit. Simple and clear,
