Competitor Pages

What You Get

For every competitor you name, SiteLift builds a small cluster of pages that link to each other so search engines treat them as one authoritative topic.

You vs Competitor

A head-to-head page: at-a-glance table, feature-by-feature comparison, pricing, pros and cons, who each tool is for, an honest verdict and an FAQ.

Competitor alternatives

A ranked list of alternatives with you first, followed by the other tools people consider, each with a summary, pricing and where it beats the competitor.

Your /compare/ hub

One index page listing every published comparison, grouped by competitor, so readers and crawlers can find the whole cluster from one URL.

Every page carries a featured image, comparison tables built from the structured facts, structured data for rich results, and a visible "facts verified" date. See it live on SiteLift's own comparison hub.

How It Works

1
Name your competitors
Open Competitor Pagesin your dashboard and type the domains of the products people compare you with. SiteLift reads each competitor's public pricing, feature and about pages and builds a fact sheet for it, and one for your own site.
2
Pages are written from the facts
Both pages are generated one competitor at a time. The prose is written only from the verified fact sheets; the comparison tables, verdict box and FAQ are assembled from the same data, so nothing is invented.
3
Review, then publish
Nothing goes live on its own. Open any page in the editor, adjust what you like, then publish it, or publish everything at once. You can unpublish or push an update at any time.
4
SiteLift keeps watching
Every two weeks each competitor's site is re-read. When their pricing, plans or features change, your pages are rewritten from the new facts and you receive an email. Pages you edited by hand are flagged instead of overwritten.

Tip

Start with the three to five competitors that actually show up in your sales calls. Those are the searches with buying intent, and they are the pages that convert.

Where the Pages Live

Comparison pages publish through the same connection as your articles, but they are standalone pages, not blog posts. They sit under a URL prefix you choose, such as /compare/, with the hub at the prefix itself.

SiteLift Hosted: the hub and every page appear automatically at your prefix, fully styled.
WordPress: pages are created as WordPress pages under a parent page named after your prefix, so the hub is the parent and each comparison is a child. Requires plugin version 1.2.0 or later.
Webflow: on first publish SiteLift creates a "Comparisons" collection in your site. Style its collection page once in the Designer and add a page at your prefix with a Collection List to act as the hub.
Shopify: each comparison becomes an Online Store page.
Next.js: the SiteLift package scaffolds the hub, page and sitemap routes for you.
Custom API and Webhooks: comparison pages are available as their own endpoints and events, separate from articles.

The prefix locks after the first publish

Pick your URL prefix in Competitor Pages → Settings before you publish anything. Once a page is live, the prefix cannot change, because moving indexed URLs would lose the rankings you are building.

Plan Limits and Slots

Each plan includes a number of tracked competitors: Starter includes 5 and Growth includes 10. The number shown in your dashboard is the one that applies to you.

Generating a competitor's pages uses one slot for the current billing cycle. Removing a competitor unpublishes its pages, but its slot stays used until the cycle renews, so swapping competitors is something to plan rather than do on impulse. If you add more competitors than you have slots, the extra ones are scheduled and generate automatically when the next cycle begins.

Editing and Updates

Edit anything

Pages open in the same editor as articles. Change the copy, then publish or push an update to the live page.

Verified date

Every page shows when its facts were last confirmed against the competitor's site, which readers and search engines both value.

Facts changed?

When a competitor changes and you had edited the page by hand, it is flagged. Choose "Rewrite from current facts" whenever you are ready.

Note

Publishing a page in the dashboard updates your live site. When a page is rewritten after a competitor change, you will see an "update available" state on the live page until you push it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every claim comes from the competitor's own public website: their pricing, plans, features and integrations pages. Each page shows the date those facts were last verified, and SiteLift re-checks them on a schedule. If a competitor's site cannot be read, the page says so instead of guessing.

The pages recommend you when the facts support it and say plainly when the other tool is the better fit for a given need. Readers and search engines both reward that honesty; a page that only praises you does not rank and does not convert.

Yes. Every page opens in the same editor as your articles. Change anything, then publish. Pages you edited by hand are never rewritten automatically; if the competitor changes something, you get a flag and a one-click option to rewrite from the current facts.

Its pages are unpublished from your site and the competitor is archived. The slot it used stays consumed until your billing cycle renews, at which point you can add a different competitor in its place.

You can change it freely until the first comparison page is published. After that it is locked, because search engines have started indexing those URLs and moving them would cost you rankings.

Comparison pages publish through the same connection as your articles: WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, SiteLift Hosted, Next.js, the Custom API and Webhooks are all supported. See the section on where pages live for the specifics of each.
