Are you looking for an all-in-one tool to provide more targeted, actionable insights into your keywords?
With daily keyword tracking and weekly reports, you’ll always have a clear view of your SEO performance. Rank Tracker automatically monitors the main keywords from your top-performing pages and delivers actionable insights.
This focused approach saves considerable time, especially when dealing with hundreds of keywords, by eliminating the need for constant back-and-forth filtering. Additionally, Rank Tracker provides competitive insights—it not only tracks our performance but also reveals who else is ranking nearby, who's gaining, and who's losing. This allows us to understand our competitors' movements and make informed decisions more effectively.
First, navigate to Tools > Rank Tracker directly from your sidebar. If you did not purchase the Rank Tracker in the past, this is what you'll see:
Click "Buy add-on" button to open up the purchase pop-up. There, enter your credit card info or click "Show summary". You will then be directed to the checkout page, where you can select the number of keywords you would like to track per month.
Rank Tracker packages are billed monthly, starting from $8.50 for every 100 keywords, but the more packages you purchase, the cheaper the unit cost!
Once you have access, you can start your first project. Simply start by:
Clicking "New Rank Tracker project".
Give your project a unique name.
Enter the URL you want to track. You can track a single URL or your entire domain.
Enter the keywords you want to track and give the dashboard some time to finish loading.
Choose the option to track Broad or Exact keywords
Broad - use broad type to track results for all URLs in your domain
Exact - use the exact type to track results only for the provided exact match URL
Important Note: The selected tracking type applies to all initially added keywords and all keywords to be added in the future.
Finally, select your target country, and crawler (Desktop or Mobile) and click "create project".
Note: The keyword daily use rate starts to reset every day at 00:00 UTC. Depending on the total number of keywords, the refresh process may take some time to complete across all of your projects.
Because of this, the time that the keyword was last updated can be crucial in reading the data, as a few minutes' difference on the last update time can lead to differences in the rankings.
Another reason that could cause a difference is the syncing of the Google Data Centers, where the data is collected. When we search, similar to a manual search, we are connected to a random Google Data center. Sometimes, the data centers can be out of sync, so one data center may be more updated than the other. However, they eventually do sync up.
Examples of a 200-keyword package:
You can delete and add up to 200 keywords per day.
If you start a new project with 200 keywords and then remove 100 keywords on the same day, you are only actively tracking 100 keywords, but you still need to wait for the daily refresh to add the remaining 100 keywords to track.
If you start a new project with 200 keywords and then remove the 200 keywords from the project, you are currently tracking 0 keywords, but you have used your daily limit. You need to wait for the daily refresh to add more keywords.
Having the same keyword (not similar, but same) on two different projects counts as two keywords towards your keyword limit.
Even though it's the same keyword with the same search settings, we're still searching for the keywords separately. We're not caching the data for the keywords.
Instead, we are searching for the keywords individually, on each refresh/update.
However, if you input the same keywords within the same Rank Tracker project, Rank Tracker will automatically remove any duplicates from that project and will keep only one keyword.
When you open the project, you should see a table with the following parameters:
Rank
The current Google rank in the SERPs.
SERP Features
This will show you which SERP features are present in the results for that keyword and whether your website is featured in them.
Featured snippets: Short excerpts of text that answer specific questions, often displayed at the top of the SERP.
Knowledge panels: Boxes that provide in-depth information about people, places, things, and organizations, including images, links, and other relevant data.
Image packs: Carousels of images related to the search query.
Local packs: Maps and listings for businesses and other places near the user's location.
Video carousels: Rows of videos related to the search query.
Shopping results: Product listings from online retailers.
If the icon is blue, it means that the SERP feature is present in the SERPs, but you are not the featured URL.
If the icon is green, it means that the SERP feature is present in the SERPs, and you are the featured URL in that feature.
1d, 7d, 30d, Life
Here, we show the number of positions that have moved up or down compared to the start value. If it has not been 7 or 30 days since the keyword was added, nothing will show up in those columns yet.
For instance, if a keyword had no ranking 7 days ago but is now ranked 75, it means there has been a rank change of 25 positions. We use the same method to compare current data with data from 30 days ago, etc.
CPC/USD
This is the average cost an advertiser pays for the keyword with every ad click in the last 30 days for the country selected at the search engine level.
Keyword Last Updated
The date the keyword was either added or refreshed. We start refreshing Keywords every day at 00:00 UTC.
URL
The URL column will show if a page is ranking for the keyword e.g./ranking-page-name.
Currently, we support country-wide Rank Tracking, for all countries.
You can revise your Rank Tracker add-on directly in-app and proceed with either an upgrade or downgrade.
Keywords start resetting daily at 00:00 UTC. Depending on the number of keywords in the queue, the refresh process may take some time to complete across all accounts. The Last updated section at the top of your project dashboard reflects the time the last keyword in your account was updated. This timestamp is shown in UTC format, ensuring a consistent point of reference.
Yes, you can add and remove keywords by clicking the Edit Keywords button at the top right of the dashboard.
No. You can create as many projects as you want, but remember that you have a monthly keyword limit.
You can only add a maximum of 250 Keywords per entry. If you need to add more, please wait for your project to finish loading before adding more keywords through "edit keywords" within the project.
In this case, changing your tracking type settings to Broad can be helpful. To do that, please contact us via live-chat or email so we can assist you further.
We start saving the data for your keyword only after you add it. If it has not been 7 or 30 days since the keyword was added, then nothing will show in those columns yet.
We only show keywords and URLs that rank in the Top 100. If they are lower, we won’t show them.
Data is stored in multiple Google Data Centers around the world. When you do a manual search, you get randomly assigned to one data center, and you will get the results from that data center. Other factors include personalized results, location IP, the device used, and the time you ran the search.
