SEO Basics
SEO Competitor
An SEO competitor is a website that competes with your website for search visibility, even if it is not a direct commercial competitor.
What it means
SEO competitors can include directories, publishers, marketplaces, review websites, local businesses, ecommerce stores or blogs that rank for the same queries.
Why it matters
It matters because search results show who owns visibility, not only who sells the same product.
Example
A clinic may compete in Google with hospitals, local directories, medical publishers and other clinics.
Common mistakes
Do not analyze only known business rivals. The search results often reveal different competitors.
