Majestic vs Rank Math
Majestic Prices in Seven Kinds of Unit — You Cannot Estimate Your Usage Before Buying
Every Rank Math Price You See Is a First-Year Price
The short answer
- Entry price
- Majestic is priced in $ and Rank Math in € ($49.99/month against €7.99/month). We do not convert between them, because the rate on the day you read this is not the rate we would be quoting.
- Our rating
- We rate Rank Math higher — 3.7/5 against 4.4/5.
- Against the rest of the category
- Of the 6 seo content tools we have reviewed that publish a starting price, Majestic is the 4th cheapest to start and Rank Math the 1st.
Majestic
from $49.99/monthLite is $49.99, Pro is $99.99, API is $399.99. Each plan is defined by seven separate unit allowances — analysis units, retrieval units, index item units, report units, data rows, analysis depth and users — and none of them map to anything you can count before you have used the tool.
What works
- ✓ Lite at $49.99 is among the cheapest entry points for dedicated backlink data
- ✓ Annual billing cuts the monthly equivalent to $41.67 on Lite and $83.33 on Pro
- ✓ Pro multiplies the Lite allowances 20-fold for double the price
- ✓ Every allowance is published per plan rather than hidden behind a sales call
What does not
- ✗ Seven different unit types, none of which mean anything until you have spent them
- ✗ Lite and Pro both include exactly 1 user — the 5-user plan costs $399.99
- ✗ The cost of additional seats is not stated on the pricing page
- ✗ Lite's 5,000 analysis depth is a hard ceiling on large-site link analysis
Rank Math
from €7.99/monthPRO is €7.99 a month and renews at €8.99. Business is €24.99 and renews at €27.99. Agency is €54.99 and renews at €64.99. The renewal figures are printed on the pricing page under each plan, so nothing is hidden — but the headline number is the one you pay least often.
What works
- ✓ The renewal price is printed openly on the pricing page rather than buried in terms
- ✓ PRO covers unlimited personal websites, not a site count
- ✓ The free version includes Search Console integration and 18 pre-defined schema types
- ✓ Tracked keyword allowances are large: 500 on PRO, 10,000 on Business, 50,000 on Agency
What does not
- ✗ Every advertised price is a discounted first-year rate that rises on renewal
- ✗ Agency renews €120 a year higher than its advertised price
- ✗ Prices are quoted in euros, so the dollar cost moves with the exchange rate
- ✗ Content AI arrives as a 15-day trial, not an included allowance

Figures come from our review of each product, checked against the vendor's own pricing page. We do not convert currencies or rank prices quoted on different billing periods — where that applies it is said above, not quietly resolved.
A third option, and what it is not
Bonfire Terminal is an AI agent that runs as a desktop app on your own machine — no cloud, nothing you type leaves your computer. It does not do what Majestic or Rank Math do, and we will not pretend it does. If either is doing its job for you, keep it.
What the $27 actually gets you→The way in is the AI Marketers Club — $27 one-time, including 21 days of access. Keeping it after that is a separate purchase; the vendor's FAQ states Bonfire Terminal starts at $5,000. We earn a commission at no extra cost to you, which is why both tools' drawbacks are printed in full above and the $5,000 is here rather than left for you to find later.
