Method
- Your setup is turned into the number of keywords each tool will count: keywords × devices × locations × search engines, using only the dimensions that tool charges for.
- For each tool we pick the cheapest published plan that covers that count and your number of projects.
- If you need daily updates and the tool updates weekly, the daily add-on is added (Ahrefs Project Boost Max, per project).
- Cost per 1,000 checks = monthly cost ÷ (counted keywords × checks per month) × 1,000.
Where a vendor sells a size but does not publish its price, we say so instead of estimating.
