Price: Flat rate from $49.99/mo
Suits: Solo, Small teams (2–50), Mid-size (51–500), Enterprise (500+)

A specialist worth having when link analysis is the job and you already have a suite for everything else. As a first and only SEO subscription it is too narrow.

TechBigs verdict, reviewed Sep 6, 2026, how we evaluate

Best for: Solo, Small teams (2–50), Mid-size (51–500), Enterprise (500+)
Free option: None
Standout: An independent link index, useful as a second opinion against Ahrefs or Semrush
Watch out: Deliberately narrow: no content tooling, no site audit, no keyword research

About MajesticMajestic

Majestic maintains its own index of links and sells access to it rather than a general SEO suite. The plans are measured in analysis units and rows returned in Site Explorer: Lite includes one million units and 5,000 rows, Pro twenty million units and 30,000 rows, and the API plan a hundred million units and 50,000 rows. A free backlink checker is available without a subscription, and rank tracking is offered through a Google Search Console connection.

Works well

An independent link index, useful as a second opinion against Ahrefs or Semrush
A free backlink checker without a subscription for quick lookups
The API plan is a documented, priced route for teams building their own reporting

Watch out for

Deliberately narrow: no content tooling, no site audit, no keyword research
Analysis units and row limits are harder to plan against than keyword counts
Only Google Sheets is verified as an integration

Who it fits

Majestic fits link builders, digital PR teams and analysts who want a second index to check what Ahrefs or Semrush report.

If you need one tool to cover rankings, audits and content, look at SE Ranking, Semrush or Moz Pro.
