Ahrefs/SEMRush suck at rank tracking, So I built the most accurate, lightest, easiest rank tracker myself!

If you do SEO, you might agree that we already have Ahrefs/SEMrush for site audits, backlinks, research and more but they suck a rank tracking!

Other rank tracking tools in the market will bundle subpar site audits and other features and charge more where as we have Ahrefs/SEM for that.

I just needed one thing: accurate, fast, geo-specific Google rank tracking. No audits, no backlink analysis, no upsell pressure.

So I built Rankmint.co —a super-lightweight dash where you:

  • Add a domain + location + keywords
  • See daily rankings, plus history
  • Optionally share your project via a live, read-only link

Why I built it:

  • Existing rank trackers bundle too much fluff
  • Tracking rankings should not be expensive
  • I wanted something fast, clean, and usable every day

What I learned building this:

  • Just-in-time UX means users don’t need tutorials
  • Location-based tracking (USA? India? Canada?) matters
  • Shareable links are unexpectedly valuable

So far, i've got my first 100+ users using manual outreach since i'm already in this business and they are all loving it.

I'm currently still working on the homepage UI but i don't mind shipping ugly as long as the product just works!

If you track rankings and hate click-heavy dashboards, I’d love your feedback.

Try it here - rankmint.co
