    These tools are similar to each other, but SEMRush has much more databases, and Serpstat has less but with the better quality. Serpstat has some very useful and free tools; it has my favorite URL vs. URL tool and much more powerful rank, tracker Both are in my everyday use, but Serpstat is in my heart forever

    We use GSC together with Semrush. If you're looking for basic SEO tooling then just using GSC is good.

    It's not a rival to SEMrush, but it's more than enough for startups.
