Is the SEO audit really free?
Yes. Audits don't use credits and are included on every plan, including the free tier.
How many competitors can I compare?
Add the main sites competing for your keywords; the comparison covers rankings, content coverage and gaps for each.
How often should I run an audit?
After any major site change, and monthly otherwise, so new issues are caught before they cost rankings.
Do I need Search Console?
No, but connecting Google Search Console adds your real clicks and queries to the analysis.
