Free Ahrefs alternatives for everyday SEO checks
Ahrefs is a full SEO suite built for people who do SEO every day. If you only need a few quick answers for a small site, ShipX’s free tools cover them, with no account.
Free, no account
Every ShipX tool is free to use without signing up. Tools that fetch other sites are rate-limited per visitor so they stay fast and fair.
One question, one tool
Each tool answers a single question: a site’s Domain Rating, an on-page audit, keyword ideas, a side-by-side comparison.
Made for small sites
Built for makers checking their own launch page or a directory before they submit, not for agency-scale reporting.

Questions
- Is this a replacement for Ahrefs?
- No. These are single checks, not a suite: there’s no site crawler, rank tracking or backlink database. They help when you need one answer quickly.
- Where does the Domain Rating come from?
- The DR checker reads the live Domain Rating from Ahrefs’ public Domain Rating API, so the number matches what Ahrefs reports.
- Do I need an account?
- No. Every tool is free to use without signing up.
