TEL AVIV, Israel--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Similarweb (NYSE: SMWB), a leading digital intelligence company, today announced its acquisition of Rank Ranger, a market leader in SEO and rank tracking, trusted by hundreds of companies worldwide.
The acquisition expands Similarweb’s capabilities as a comprehensive SEO suite for enterprises by combining its keyword research and analysis capabilities with Rank Ranger’s search term rank tracking. For the first time, this powerful combination will give search professionals and marketing leaders a complete understanding of their relative ‘market share’ beyond the keywords they track.
Users will be able to monitor, track and report on the rank of keywords over time across all leading search engines, now connecting how they rank for key search terms with the actual traffic those terms are driving. These combined insights will allow search professionals to quickly identify the most effective ways to drive traffic growth and therefore deliver greater returns on their search investments.

Rank Ranger’s tools enable search professionals to monitor progress against search marketing goals, while measuring, optimizing, and reporting on the impact of specific strategies. The incorporation of these capabilities into the daily workflow of search professionals enables them to maintain high ranking for their product and services and design winning campaigns, and gives them the agility they need to react when rivals compete for the same keywords, or when search trends change in their markets.
