SEO and AI visibility
Semrush is an SEO and competitive research tool for keywords, rankings, ads and backlinks — for your site and your competitors'.
Volumes and positions are estimates from its own database. They are fine for direction and relative size, but your own Search Console data leads.
Its strength is comparison: which topics competitors cover and you don't, and which of their pages earn the most traffic.
Tip
Group your keyword export by search intent before you build pages. That turns it into a usable content plan.
