2. Run your first website audit

Use Single audit for a quick technical and on-page health check of a public website.

Open the Audit Tool

Choose Audit Tool in the menu.

Keep “Single audit” selected

This is the default mode.

Enter the website

Type a public URL such as example.com or https://example.com.

RankLens fetches the public page and builds the report.

FREE

3. Understand an audit report

RankLens organizes findings so you can fix the most useful items first.

Start with the overall score

Use it as a quick health indicator, not as a guarantee of search ranking.

Read “Fix these first”

High-impact findings are surfaced before the longer checklist.

Check page snapshot and Core Web Vitals

These show measured page signals when the required data is available.

Use the action list

Each failed or warning check explains what needs attention.

Use title/meta suggestions

Copy useful suggestions and adjust them for your actual page and audience before publishing.

FREE

4. Use Local Business mode

This mode highlights website-based local trust signals. It does not inspect your Google Business Profile.

Select “Local business”

Use the mode buttons above the audit URL field.

Enter the business website

Run the audit normally.

Review Local trust signals

Use the results as website signals and verify important business information manually.

5. Compare your site with a competitor

VS Competitor runs two audits and places important measured signals side by side.

Sign in to a Pro, Agency or Max workspace

The feature is locked on Free.

Select “VS competitor”

Two URL fields will appear.

Enter both websites

Put your site in the first field and the comparison site in the second.

Run the comparison

RankLens highlights the stronger measured result for each comparison row.

Share, copy or save as PDF

Use the buttons under the comparison report.

6. Create a prospect report with Pitch Mode

Pitch Mode turns audit findings into a client-facing opportunity report.

Select “Pitch mode”

Enter the prospect website and optionally the prospect/business name.

Run the audit

RankLens builds a condensed opportunity-focused view.

Add your closing message

Use the Pitch Mode message box to explain what you can help fix.

Brand or export the result

Use white-label branding and Save as PDF for a client-ready document.

7. Add your branding to a report

White-label controls let you present a report using your own agency or company details.

Run an audit or competitor report

Wait until the report is visible.

Choose “Brand report”

The branding panel opens.

Add company details

Enter agency/company name, website and contact details. A logo is optional.

Turn on white-label mode if wanted

This uses your agency branding in the exported report.

Save branding

Brand settings and the optional logo are stored in that browser; the logo is not uploaded to RankLens.

Save as PDF

Use the report’s Save as PDF button when the branding looks correct.

ACCOUNT FEATURE

8. Save and reopen client websites

Signed-in workspaces keep a cloud-synced client roster. Plan limits determine how many sites you can save.

Open Account & Dashboard

Find the Client roster section.

Enter the client URL and optional label

Use a clear label such as the business or project name.

Save the client

The site is added to your workspace.

Choose Audit beside a saved client

RankLens opens the Audit Tool with that website ready to audit.

AUDIT TOOL

9. Crawl multiple pages

After a main-page audit, you can sample more pages from the same site.

Complete a normal audit

The crawl action appears in the report actions.

Choose “Crawl up to 25 pages”

RankLens discovers and checks a bounded sample of internal pages.

Review site-wide results

Use them to spot repeated titles, metadata problems and technical patterns across the sample.

11. Share a report, save a PDF or add a score badge

RankLens gives several ways to reuse an audit.

Share report

Pro+ can create a private random share link for a generated audit.

Save as PDF

Use the browser print/PDF flow from the report action.

Copy summary

Copy a short result summary for email, messaging or notes.

Get score badge

Copy the generated embed code and place it on a website where you control the HTML.

12. Add uptime monitoring

Monitoring checks a saved website on a schedule and tracks status in your workspace.

Open Account & Dashboard

Scroll to “Uptime + scheduled PSI + RUM”.

Enter the full website URL

Add an optional label so you can identify it quickly.

Choose “Add monitor”

The site appears in your monitor list and the plan’s monitor limit is applied.

Review status and performance data

The dashboard shows the latest available status, score and RUM usage information.

13. Install Real User Monitoring (RUM)

RUM collects sampled browser performance measurements from real visits according to your plan allowance.

Add the website as a monitor

RUM code is generated for monitored sites.

Click “RUM code” beside the monitor

The embed box opens.

Choose “Copy embed”

Copy the exact snippet RankLens generates for that site.

Add the snippet to your website

Place it in the site template so it loads on the pages you want measured. If you use a CMS, add it through a safe header/template method.

Publish and visit the website

After real visits occur, return to Account and check estimated RUM pageviews and sampling.

Privacy: use RUM for performance measurements; do not intentionally send passwords, payment data or other sensitive content through monitoring fields.

14. Add a teammate

Agency and Max workspaces support up to the plan’s seat limit.

Open the Team section in Account

An owner/admin can create an invite when a seat is available.

Choose “Create invite code”

The code is valid for 7 days.

Send the code privately

Do not post workspace invite codes publicly.

Teammate signs in and enters the code

They use “Join with code” in their Account dashboard.

Remove access when needed

Owners/admins can remove non-owner team members from the Team list.

15. Create and revoke an API key

Developer API keys are available to Max workspaces and should be treated like passwords.

Open Developer keys in Account

The form is visible when the workspace has API-key entitlement.

Name the integration

Use a label such as “CRM” or “Internal dashboard”.

Create the key

Copy it immediately when RankLens displays it.

Store it securely

Do not put API keys in public browser JavaScript, screenshots, public repositories or support messages.

Revoke unused keys

Use Revoke in the Account dashboard when a key should no longer work.

16. Upgrade, pay and cancel

Paid plans use Razorpay recurring subscriptions. The checkout page tells you the plan and billing interval before payment.

Open Pricing

Compare the complete Free, Pro, Agency and Max feature lists.

Choose monthly or yearly

Then select the plan you want. Founding Pro, when available, is monthly only.

Sign in before checkout

The subscription is attached to the signed-in workspace.

Complete Razorpay checkout

Razorpay handles payment credentials; RankLens verifies the payment before enabling the plan.

Check Account after payment

The billing panel should show the active plan and current paid period.

To cancel, choose “Cancel at cycle end”

After confirmation, cancellation is scheduled and paid access normally continues until the displayed paid-period end.

HELP

17. Send feedback or contact Support

Use Feedback for product suggestions and Support when you need help with an account, billing or a technical problem.

Feedback

Use the green Feedback button at the bottom-left of RankLens. Enter your name, mobile number, country, optional email and message.

Support

Open the Support page, select the topic and describe what happened. You receive a support reference after submission.

For billing issues, avoid paying twice

If a payment appears captured but your account did not upgrade, contact Support before attempting another payment.

SECURITY

18. Keep your RankLens account safe

A few simple habits prevent most avoidable account problems.

Keep secrets private

Never send passwords, recovery codes, OTPs, CVVs, UPI PINs or API secrets through Feedback, Support or chat.

Verify the website address

Use the official RankLens pages.dev address unless a future official custom domain is announced inside RankLens.

Remove old team/API access

Revoke API keys and remove teammates when they no longer need access.

Check billing status after changes

After upgrading or scheduling cancellation, verify the status shown in Account.
