Everything you need to turn search data into action

From reporting-friendly dashboards to prioritized workflows, Kong Metrics helps teams see what to fix, what to scale, and where organic growth is slipping.

Frequently asked questions

Why do I need Kong Metrics if Google Search Console is free?

GSC is a great data source, but a terrible analytics tool. It limits your data to 16 months, heavily samples long-tail queries, and lacks advanced cross-filtering. Kong Metrics acts as your SEO data warehouse, turning raw, unsampled GSC data into automated workflows like content decay alerts and cannibalization tracking.

Can I try Kong Metrics for free?

Yes. You can create a free account with no credit card required and use the Free plan forever. Paid plans also include a 14-day free trial, so you can evaluate higher limits and retention before you are charged.

What is the difference between monthly and annual billing?

Annual billing gives you a 20% discount compared to monthly billing. You pay upfront for the full year and save significantly. You can switch between billing cycles at any time from your account settings.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express) via Paddle, our payment processor. Paddle also handles invoicing and tax compliance worldwide.

Can I change plans later?

Absolutely. You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time from your account settings. When upgrading, you get immediate access to new features. When downgrading, changes take effect at the end of your current billing period.
