What a competitor finder actually measures
Three columns, and what each one meant for the example above.
Shared keywords
How many search terms the two domains both rank for in the top 100. Search competitors share results pages and may also compete directly on products.
photoai.com and fotor.com share 1,190 keywords. That overlap makes a broader image platform worth researching alongside dedicated photo apps.
Their keyword total
How many terms the competitor ranks for overall. A rival with 80,000 keywords and a rival with 2,000 are different problems even if they share the same 600 with you.
fotor.com ranks for 80,124 terms in this snapshot. Compare its overall search footprint with the keywords it shares with photoai.com.
Average rank on shared terms
Where the competitor sits, on average, for the keywords you both target. Lower is stronger. This is the column that says who is actually winning the overlap.
canva.com averages #5 on the 755 terms it shares with photoai.com. That is the rival to study first.
Competitors’ keywords reveal search overlap
Search competitors can include dedicated headshot apps and broader image-editing platforms. This list identifies them by shared search keywords. For photoai.com, the sample includes Fotor, Adobe and Canva. Some of these platforms also offer headshot features, so product competition and search competition can overlap. An SEO competitor analysis tool helps you measure that overlap before deciding which sites to study.
Ordered by overlap, not by brand size
The list is ordered by shared keywords. The site sharing 1,200 terms with you is the one whose pages you should read, even if it is a side feature of a company ten times bigger. And it is why a "find similar websites" search gives a different answer: similar is about audience, this is about results pages.
From the list to the next step
A competitor list is only useful if every row leads somewhere. Each one here does.

Questions, answered
Anything else — support@tracetify.com
How do I find a competitor website?
Enter your own domain, or any domain, and pick a market. The competitor finder returns the sites that rank for the same keywords in that market, ordered by how many keywords they share with the one you entered. The free preview shows the top five without an account; signing in shows the full list.
Who are my competitors — the ones I know, or the ones ranking for my keywords?
For search, look at the sites ranking for your keywords. They can include direct product rivals, publishers, marketplaces and broader tools. The groups overlap: an image editor may also offer AI headshots. This finder identifies competitors by shared search keywords, so you can assess both their search presence and their products.
Is there a free tool to find similar websites?
This one, for the top five. Note the difference from a similar-sites tool: similar-sites tools group domains by audience or topic, this competitor finder groups them by the keywords they rank for. If you want to know who is actually taking search traffic from a domain, the keyword overlap is the number that answers it.
How is this different from a competitor research tool like Semrush?
The list itself comes from the same kind of keyword-overlap data. What sits behind each row is different: for many domains we already have a public growth report you can read for free, every row can be sent to the competitor ads tool to see what they advertise, and any row can be added to a monitor that watches their site for new pages. The finder is the first step of that chain, not a standalone report.
Which market does it check?
You pick one of eight markets. Keyword overlap is computed inside that market, so a domain can have a different competitor list in the US and the UK. Pick the market you sell in.
Is it free?
The preview is free and needs no account: the top five competitors for any domain, up to 3 lookups an hour. Signing up is free and comes with up to 10 credits; the full list costs 2 credits per fresh lookup, and repeating a domain within a week costs nothing. No card is needed to sign up.
Sign in, enter a domain, and get the full competitor list with report links, ads and monitoring one click away.
