Rank trackers for SEO

Is it necessary to use a rank tracker when working with SEO? Opinions are divided on this.

I assume you already have Google Search Console set up on your website, which means you can also see your keyword rankings and the number of impressions and clicks. A rank tracker allows you to get a quick overview of your rankings, but there is other data that is far more important than keyword rankings. This is something to always keep in mind when working with SEO.

I would personally recommend investing in Ahrefs, which is user-friendly and contains most data relevant to an SEO specialist. Ahrefs is much more than a rank tracker. You can do competitor analysis, in-depth link analysis, keyword analysis, technical SEO and much more.
