Competitor Keyword Gap Finder - Ranked Keywords & Traffic

Find the Google keywords your competitors rank for and you don't. Enter your domain and your competitors to get a keyword gap list with search volume, the competitor's position and ranking URL, estimated traffic, keyword difficulty and CPC. It's a pay-as-you-go alternative to the Ahrefs Content Gap and Semrush Keyword Gap tools, with no subscription.

What you get

One row per keyword with:

• domain: the domain that ranks, and comparedTo: your domain
• keyword, searchVolume, cpc, competition, keywordDifficulty (0-100) and searchIntent
• position and absolutePosition: where the domain ranks on Google
• url and title: the exact page that ranks
• estimatedTraffic: estimated monthly visits from this keyword, and estimatedTrafficValueUsd: what that traffic would cost in Google Ads
• movement (new / up / down / same) and previousPosition
• comparedPosition and comparedUrl: your own position and page, in Shared keywords mode
• monthlySearches, trend percentages, serpFeatures and location

Export to JSON, CSV, Excel or Google Sheets from the Dataset tab, or use the API.

Three modes

• Keyword gap: keywords each competitor ranks for that your domain doesn't rank for at all. These are your content opportunities.
• Shared keywords: keywords you and a competitor both rank for, with both positions side by side. Find where you're beaten and can catch up.
• Ranked keywords: every keyword each domain ranks for, yours and your competitors'. A full organic keyword export for any site.

Use cases

• Content gap analysis: build a content plan from keywords that already send traffic to competitors
• Competitor research: see which pages and topics drive a competitor's organic traffic
• SEO audits: export every keyword a site ranks for, with positions and traffic estimates
• Quick wins: find shared keywords where you rank on page 2 and a competitor ranks on page 1
• Agency pitches: show prospects exactly which keywords their competitors are winning
