Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between "SEO Classic" and "Semrush One"?

SEO Classic focuses on traditional search engines (Google/Bing). Semrush One is the 2026 flagship plan that includes the AI Visibility Toolkit, allowing you to track your brand’s performance inside AI agents like ChatGPT and Perplexity.

Does Semrush have a free version?

Yes, Semrush offers a "Free" account with limited daily searches and one project, but it does not include AI tracking or advanced competitive data.

Can Semrush help me rank in AI Search (SGE)?

Yes. The AI Visibility Toolkit analyzes which sources LLMs cite to answer user queries, helping you optimize your content to be used as a primary reference by AI models.

Can I add more users to my team?

Yes, but each additional user seat requires a monthly fee: $45/mo for Pro, $80/mo for Guru, and $100/mo for Business plans.

Is it safe to connect my Google Analytics to Semrush?

Yes. Semrush uses secure OAuth 2.0 protocols and is a verified Google Partner. They only read the data necessary to populate your dashboard and do not share it with third parties.
