Where these figures come from
Before you buy
What the headline price doesn’t say
- If a comparison article still prices Searchmetrics as an independent vendor, it is out of date — check the publication date before trusting the number.
- Existing Searchmetrics agreements migrate into Conductor's commercial model at renewal, which is the moment to re-tender rather than roll over.
- Conductor's entry plan tracks 500 keywords. If Searchmetrics was your keyword-visibility tool, confirm the allowance covers your set before renewing.
- Consolidation like this is a good reason to separate requirements: research, content and rank tracking do not have to come from one vendor.
Our read
Not a live buying decision on its own any more. Treat a Searchmetrics renewal as a Conductor evaluation, and use the moment to check whether you need one platform or two specialised tools.
For comparison: what LemRank costs
We publish our numbers: free for 50 keywords, $59/mo on Pro for 5,000 keywords across unlimited projects, and a quoted rate above that for large keyword universes, multiple domains and multiple markets. Every engine and AI-answer tracking is included rather than billed per module. The honest trade-off against a platform like Searchmetrics: we are a tracking, reporting and API product, not a content workflow suite, and our backlink index is smaller than the big suites’.

Questions
Frequently asked
How much does Searchmetrics cost?
There is no independent Searchmetrics rate card. Conductor acquired it in 2022, and Conductor's plans are quote-only, with a median reported contract near $49,500 a year.
Is Searchmetrics still available?
Its capability lives inside Conductor's platform. It is not sold as a separate product with its own pricing today.
What should Searchmetrics customers do at renewal?
Treat it as a fresh evaluation. Confirm the keyword allowance, the seat model and which modules you actually use, then compare against specialised tools before rolling over.
What are the alternatives to Searchmetrics?
Conductor itself, BrightEdge and seoClarity at the platform level. If the requirement is rank tracking and reporting rather than a content platform, a dedicated tracker is far cheaper.
