Why it matters

You can't improve rankings you're not watching

Local rankings move constantly — algorithm updates, new competitors, seasonal shifts, and citation changes all affect where you appear in Google Maps and organic results. Without tracking, you only notice a drop when your phone stops ringing.

Local Rank Tracker gives you a weekly snapshot of every keyword that matters to your business, with trend lines that show you whether you're gaining ground or losing it — before it affects revenue.

Position history over time
See a full timeline of every rank change — not just today's position. Spot the week a competitor overtook you or a Google update knocked you down.
Drop alerts before damage is done
Set a threshold (e.g. drop by 3+ positions) and get an email the moment any tracked keyword crosses it. Fast response beats slow discovery.
Separate Maps and organic tracking
A position in the Local Pack and a position in organic results require different fixes. Tracking them separately tells you exactly where to focus your effort.

Set up in minutes, insights every week

No code, no integrations, no waiting. Add your keywords, set your location, and let Rank Tracker do the rest.

01

Add your keywords and location

Enter the keywords you want to track and the postcode or city area to check from. You can add as many keyword-location pairs as you need across any number of brands.

02

Automated weekly rank checks

Rank Tracker runs every keyword check automatically on a weekly schedule. Each check costs 8 credits per keyword (Maps + organic) — manual re-checks are available anytime.

03

Track changes, get alerts, prove progress

View position history for every keyword, compare Maps vs organic, and get emailed when any keyword drops past your alert threshold.

Every ranking signal in one place

Local Rank Tracker goes beyond a simple position check — it gives you the full context to understand why your rankings move and what to do about it.

Google Maps (Local Pack) tracking

Track your position in the map pack that appears at the top of local search results — the three-listing block that drives the majority of local clicks and calls.

Google organic rank tracking

Monitor your standard organic position for the same keywords so you see the full picture: both where you appear in the map and where you rank below it.

Postcode-level localisation

Check results from the exact postcode or neighbourhood you care about. Local results vary block by block — postcode-level tracking is the only way to see what your actual customers see.

Position history and trend charts

Every weekly check is stored as a data point. View your position history as a trend line to see long-term momentum, seasonal patterns, and the exact impact of SEO changes you make.

Rank drop alerts

Set a drop threshold per keyword and get an immediate email alert when any keyword crosses it. React within hours, not weeks, when something goes wrong.

Competitor position comparison

See where your top local competitors rank for the same keywords side-by-side. Identify which competitors are consistently outranking you and understand the gap you need to close.

Keyword strategy

The keywords worth tracking for local businesses

Tracking the right keywords is as important as tracking at all. These are the keyword patterns that drive the highest-intent local traffic — the searches where people are ready to call or book.

Near-me searches
"plumber near me", "dentist near me"

The highest-volume local intent signal. Position 1–3 in Maps captures the vast majority of clicks.

Service + city
"roof repair Austin", "HVAC Dallas TX"

Explicit city targeting — strong buying intent, lower competition than near-me in many markets.

Service + postcode
"electrician 78701"

Postcode-level searches convert at the highest rate of any local keyword type.

Emergency / urgent
"emergency plumber", "24hr locksmith"

High commercial value, time-sensitive — a ranking drop here directly costs you revenue same day.

How credits work

Pair with Search Grid for deeper insight

Rank Tracker tells you your single position. Search Grid shows you your visibility across an entire geographic area — a 5×5 or 7×7 grid of rank checks that reveals exactly where in your city you dominate and where you're invisible.
