Well, for starters, some of them are hard rock, like Earth, while there's a group of planets that are made of gas. These are the fours planets in our solar system that are made of hard rock:

Mercury

Venus

Earth

Mars. These are the planets in our solar system that are made of gas:

Jupiter

Saturn

Uranus

Neptune. So, some planets are alike by what they're made of. Another way they're alike is the conditions of weather on the planets. As a example: Jupiter and Neptune. Jupiter has the Great Red Spot, while Neptune has the Big Blue Spot. You could group together planets by if their weather is hot or cold. There are more ways the planets are alike, these are just the ones people normally think of first. But remember, there will never be a planet like Earth because Earth has life!

Planets are also all typically spherical, have significant gravity of their own, and orbit a star.
