What Seotrends does that big-name tools don't

Discovery, not auditing

Big tools are built for agencies running audits on sites they already know about. Seotrends is built for operators looking for the next domain to build — we surface candidates instead of analyzing yours.

Priced for individuals

Ahrefs starts at $129/mo, SEMrush at $139. Seotrends has a free plan, and paid plans start at $19.95/mo. Same SERP data class, focused workflow, fraction of the cost.

Filters built for niche-hunting

Stars (0-2 year old domains already ranking), Very Easy (DR < 15), High Value Keywords — combinations that let you find quietly winning projects in seconds, not hours.

Real projects from our database

Three domains from our live database. Low DR, real traffic, real revenue — and they're not the only ones.

How Seotrends compares to the tool you already know

The incumbent

Big-name SEO suite

  • Built for SEO audits and rank tracking
  • Massive feature surface (and price)
  • You bring the URL, they tell you about it
  • Pricing $129/mo to $999/mo
  • Power-user learning curve

Seotrends

Built for discovery

  • Built to find new domains worth building
  • Focused features, one clear workflow
  • You browse our DB, you find what to build
  • Free plan, paid plans from $19.95/mo
  • Productive in 10 minutes

SEMrush alternatives generally fall into two camps: (1) cheaper general-purpose suites trying to match SEMrush feature-for-feature, and (2) specialized tools that do one thing better. Seotrends is firmly in camp 2. We're built for discovering trending domains and rankable niches across 13 countries, the workflow SEMrush forces you to assemble from multiple reports.

What SEMrush does (and that we don't)

PPC research, position tracking, site audit, social media tools, content marketing platform, link-building outreach, brand monitoring. If you use these heavily, stay on SEMrush.

What we do that SEMrush makes hard

"Show me every domain across BR/ES/MX rising on Google in finance with DR under 20 and traffic value over $5K/month, sorted by growth." In SEMrush that's a multi-step workflow. In Seotrends it's 3 clicks. We're built on this single use case.

Want to see it on real domains?

One click: start free, no credit card needed, and explore the database.

Comparison: niche discovery time

SEMrush Market Explorer + Traffic Analytics + Domain Overview cross-references = 20-40 min per niche. Seotrends pre-filtered table = 1-3 min per niche. Multiply across 10 niches and the time saving is your week back.

Pricing

SEMrush Pro: $139.95, Guru: $249.95, Business: $499.95. Seotrends: $19.95 Individual, $69.95 Business, $149.95 Agency, or start free with no credit card. Even our Agency plan ($149.95/month) costs about the same as SEMrush Pro alone.

Try both, decide

SEMrush has a 14-day trial. Seotrends lets you start free, no credit card needed, and you can cancel anytime. See which workflow fits how you actually work.
