SE Ranking vs Majestic

• Majestic: Lite $49.99 per month ($41.67 billed annually), Pro $99.99 ($83.33 annually), API $399.99 per month. Prices exclude VAT; Lite and Pro have a 7-day money-back guarantee for new customers.
• SE Ranking: Core $129 per month ($103.20 annually), Growth $279 ($223.20 annually).

Majestic Lite includes 1 million analysis units, 5,000 Site Explorer rows and 60 report units; Pro raises that to 20 million units and 30,000 rows. It focuses entirely on links and their history. SE Ranking includes backlink research and monitoring alongside rank tracking, keyword research, competitor research and a website audit.

Trust Flow and Citation Flow are long-established link metrics, and Majestic's link history is a deep resource for link builders and digital PR specialists who audit large link profiles.

• Majestic: no rank tracking, keyword research or site audit; you will need a second tool for daily SEO work.
• SE Ranking: less specialised link metrics than a dedicated backlink index.

Link builders often combine the two: Majestic's Trust Flow and topical link data help vet prospects before outreach, and SE Ranking's daily rank tracking shows whether new links actually move the target keywords. If budget allows only one, ask what you report to clients. Link metrics alone rarely satisfy a client; ranking and traffic movement usually does, and that is SE Ranking's territory.
