A 30-second film shows UpperSearch keyword research, publisher discovery, AI visibility, and the desktop dashboard before a lifetime-pricing invitation. It has music and sound effects, with no spoken narration.
Core SEO Tools
Research keywords, analyze SERPs, study competitors, check backlinks, find related publisher sites, and monitor AI visibility from one desktop app.
Keyword Explorer
Evaluate search demand, difficulty, intent, and monetization signals.
Check monthly search volume, organic keyword difficulty (KD%), search intent, cost per click (CPC), and paid competition for a keyword in one workspace.
- Exact monthly search volume with historical demand trendline
- Organic Keyword Difficulty (KD%) scoring calibrated against Page 1 links
- Four-way search intent classification: Informational, Commercial, Navigational, Transactional
- Commercial monetization metrics: Cost Per Click (CPC) and paid competition index
Uncover the publisher networks behind domains
Beyond rankings and backlinks, some publishers run several related websites. UpperSearch compares shared publisher and advertising signals to help uncover websites that may be connected through the same publishing network.
- Shared publisher signals: Compare publisher IDs, seller records, and supported Google Ad Manager, Mediavine, and Ezoic signals.
- Find related websites: Group websites that share the same publisher or seller identifiers.
- Review and export results: See why a domain was matched, check its age, and export the results to CSV.
