# Free SEO Compare - Website Comparison Tool

> Run a full website comparison for 2 domains: on-page SEO score, Ahrefs Domain Rating, title and meta description, H1, canonical, Open Graph, robots.txt sitemap, links, and response time - side by side.

## How to use

1. **Enter 2 websites** - Paste hostnames or URLs for your site and a competitor (or directory target).
2. **Run the SEO compare** - We fetch each homepage and robots.txt, parse on-page signals, and load live Ahrefs Domain Rating.
3. **Read the matrix** - Compare on-page SEO score, DR, titles, meta, H1, OG tags, sitemap presence, and link counts - then fix gaps with the other free tools.

## How to use SEO compare for competitor research

A website comparison should cover more than Domain Rating. On-page SEO (title, meta description, single H1, canonical, Open Graph) decides whether a page can earn rankings once it has links - DR only estimates link equity.

Use SEO compare before you copy a competitor’s playbook: if they lead on DR but fail basic title/meta/H1 checks, you can out-execute them with cleaner on-page SEO while you catch up on backlinks.

When picking directories or partners, prefer sites that win both relevance and DR. A topical site with solid on-page SEO and moderate DR often beats a high-DR site that is unrelated or nofollow-only.

The on-page score is a readiness checklist (not a Google ranking prediction). Domain Rating comes from Ahrefs’ free public API - always credit results as Domain Rating by Ahrefs.

## What you get

- On-page SEO score (0–100)
- Live Ahrefs Domain Rating
