Competitor research

Compare domains and ranking coverage, identify missing opportunities, and keep the useful findings inside your keyword planning system.

Detect

Find competitors in the search results for your own keywords.

Crawl Foundry reads the current results for keywords you already care about. Domains that appear repeatedly become tracked competitors, along with how often they were seen and how many top-10 positions they hold.

Expand a promising gap with Keyword Discovery, then use the keyword strategy workflow to decide which page should address it.

Profile

Open a competitor to see its ranking coverage.

Review its top-10 and top-20 keywords, the search volume they cover, its average best position, and the topics where its visibility is strongest.

Compare

Compare their ranking coverage with yours.

Shared keywords show both positions. Keywords for which only the competitor ranks are marked as gaps and collected in a working list.

Qualify & plan

Evaluate each gap and keep only what fits your strategy.

Add volume, difficulty, and intent to gap keywords before you decide. Relevant opportunities move into your lists and tags, while the rest stay out of the database.
