PeakSERP Review: A great SERPRobot alternative

If the tornado known as the Google Helpful Content Update has passed through your portfolio of websites, you may be wondering what the *** is going on with your rankings!

Of course, big cats like Semrush, Ahrefs, and SERPRobot are laughing all the way to the bank as we try to make sense of just where exactly our sites are visible online.

If you want to spend more time growing your site than typing in 1000s of keywords or ogling SERP results I want you to take a look at PeakSERP, a quick, simple, and super cheap SEO tool that I think is a great alternative to SERPRobot. 

What is PeakSERP?

PeakSERP is a simple, affordable rank tracker, that will track the position of your web pages in search engine page results for the keywords you choose.

It was founded earlier this year by Zak Kann and is proving to be a great alternative to SERPRobot. PeakSERP’s nifty bots continually monitor the position of your website, delivering performance across a handful of key metrics on a daily or weekly basis.

I have found PeakSERP to be one of the easiest ways to assess the visibility of my site but also navigate the SERP fluctuations so I can adjust my SEO strategy. 

Cui bono? PeakSERP is a great fit for…

• Busy bloggers
• Affiliate marketers
• Independent online publishers
• Small biz
• Site owners
• Webmasters
• Digital marketers

Seriously, it’s a super-accessible tool that just about anyone can get some value out of. PeakSERP also bypasses a lot of the hassle of typing in a zillion individual keywords by offering simple XML-sitemap exports. 

Daily and weekly tracking with separate desktop and mobile rankings provide the oversight you need. And unlike many of the more established rank trackers, it’s cost-effective as you’ll see below. 

PeakSERP vs SERPRobot

Let’s be honest. SERPRobot was a go-to for many of us but it just keeps getting more and more expensive and though it’s the current market leader, I feel that PeakSERP provides all the features of SERPRobot with better functionality at a lower price. Here’s how the two line up:

PeakSERP	SERPRobot
Unlimited rank-tracking projects	Unlimited rank-tracking projects
Results across 100+ Search languages and400+ Search regions	Accurate global and local Google search volumes
Adjustable update frequency and data retention for up to three year	Real-time performance reports and historic data graphs
Generate keywords directly from your domain	Custom keyword tags
Track competitors	Track competitors
Desktop or mobile rankings	Individual keyword entry
XML-sitemap import
SERPRobot data import

For me, the XML-sitemap import has made a massive difference to me, saving time on adding new keywords each time I publish an article or post.

Just use the XML-sitemap to add keywords in bulk and track hundreds of keywords at a keystroke. I also note the cheeky import from SERPRobot, but CSV export would be a great additional feature.

PeakSERP key SEO metrics

You can be confident that PeakSERP gets to the point and gives you a targeted overview of your ranking position without unnecessary metrics cluttering your data. The key metrics provided are:

• Average position 
• 1st page 
• Top 3
• Top 10
• Top 100

Just remember that when you first set up PeakSERP it will take about 24 hours to get any meaningful results.

Helpfully PeakSERP also tracks Google updates and other seismic SEO events so you can see how your site rankings are impacted and track progress (or recovery).

How to set up PeakSERP

With a portfolio of sites, introducing a new SEO tool can be a real hassle, without much meaningful gain.

But I’m pleased to say that I’ve been able to successfully make the leap from SERPRobot to PeakSERP without a hitch.

Here is a step by step guide to how to get started on PeakSERP, with photos:

Step 1: Head over to PeakSERP and click the Sign-up button at the top of the page

PeakSERP offers a 7-day free trial so you can test the platform. No credit card is necessary so you can go ahead and sign up.

Step 2: Fill in your email address and create a password

You’ll need to verify your email before proceeding.

Step 3: Create your first project

Once you’re logged in, you can set up your first PeakSERP project, using the web domain of your choice. Just click Option A – CREATE A PROJECT.

Alternatively, you can import your SERPRobot data by clicking Option B – IMPORT FROM SERPROBOT. 

Step 4: Fill in your project details

In the lightbox that appears, fill in the details of your project including: 

• Project name
• Domain
• Ranking update frequency
• Add keywords manually or by uploading your site’s XML-sitemap
• Choose from advanced features including search engine, location, language and search device (desktop or mobile)

Step 5: Check your Ranking Summary for headline metrics

You’ll have all the key positions for your keywords presented on a simple dashboard. Just remember that it will take at least 24 hours for the correct rankings to appear.

Step 6: Add more keywords to track

Just click the ADD KEYWORDS tab to add further keywords manually or import further keywords via an updated sitemap. 

PeakSERP pricing and offer

One thing I like about PeakSERP is the simple low pricing. It makes this rank-tracker budget-friendly, so you can keep using it without watching the balance sheet.

Daily tracking of 75 keywords costs as little as $5 per month, with pricing and keywords scalable according to your needs. 1500 tracked keywords cost 100 dollars per month.

PeakSERP offers a 7-day free trial, allowing you to trial its rank-tracker and see for yourself. It’s no obligation and they won’t take your card details to sign up.
