Free SEO metrics and indexing checks on your hosting

Every website you host with us gets its Ahrefs Domain Rating, Majestic Trust Flow and Citation Flow and its Google indexing state measured for free, plus rank tracking and a one-click domain change.

Every website you host with us is measured for you, at no extra cost. You do not need an SEO tool subscription to see how your sites are doing: the numbers are in your dashboard, next to each site.

What we measure

  • Ahrefs Domain Rating (DR) — how strong the site's backlink profile is, on Ahrefs' 0 to 100
  • scale. The first reading arrives a few days after the site goes live, then it is refreshed every month.

  • Majestic Trust Flow and Citation Flow (TF/CF) — the quality and the quantity of the links
  • pointing at the site. Refreshed every 30 days.

  • Google indexing — whether Google has the site in its index. We check it on a schedule, so you
  • see the answer rather than guess at it.

You find all three in Sites: the sites list shows each site's indexing state, Trust Flow and Domain Rating.

Rank tracking

Every website plan includes rank tracking for a number of keywords. Your plan page lists how many.

One-click domain change

You can move a site to a new domain yourself. Open the site, go to Domains & DNS and choose Change this site's domain. We set up the new domain, switch the site over and tidy up the old one. It works on every plan, with no support ticket.

PBN hosting extras

Footprint-Free (PBN) plans also include the domain history checker, so you can check a domain's past before you build on it.

Which plans include this?

Every website plan: managed WordPress, Linux, application, LMS, file, developer, agency, reseller and Footprint-Free hosting. Cloud servers, compute, AI and database plans do not include the SEO metrics.
