How to use Rank Tracker 2.0

What is it?

Rank tracker is the core of Sitechecker. It helps you track your website SEO rankings regularly and find out what of your actions led to growth and be the first to know when something critical happens. With Rank Tracker you can easily track how fixing errors on your website improves your ranking.

How does it work?

Rank tracker daily parses search results for keywords you choose and shows you unique data that you won’t be able to find on Google Search Console. With Rank Tracker you see real search results for specific language, search engine, and country you choose while setting up the project.

How to use it?

1 Add Your Keywords

To start using Rank Tracker, you need to add keywords and configure the settings. You can do this in Project Editing on the last two steps.

To add keywords, you need to choose settings for tracking:

Search Engine
Searcher domain (country)
City (optional)
Language
Device (desktop or mobile)

It allows you to get the most precise results.

The next step would be entering the keywords you would like to track.

You can do it in a couple of different ways:

1. Type all of them manually.

2. Use the button “Suggest keywords” (Only if you connected GSC to this project)

3. Importing a file

We recommend using Rank Tracker for keywords you plan to rank. Rank Tracker will show you keyword statistics, even if you don’t have them in your Search Console.

Additionally, we strongly recommend adding as many keywords for tracking as your limits allow you to get a more accurate ranking picture.

2 See Your Rankings

After you’ve added the keywords, positions data starts to get collected. Usually, you will be able to see the first results within a couple of hours. After that, the data is updated once a day.

You can see a couple of graphs with results. The first one shows you an overall trend for your added keywords.

Below that, you can see the chart with all the keywords and their positions day by day.

At the moment, we provide two different chart options: Basic and Advanced

Basic combines all the necessary information in an easy and accessible format, ideal for beginners in SEO.

Advanced is modular and can be configured to your liking.
By clicking on "Columns", you can select from a variety of metrics that you would like to see.You can add columns like URL, Position, 1 day, 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, and All-time Ranking, Compare Two Dates, Target URL, Group, CPC, Trend, Potential Rank, etc.

4 Check the detailed SEPR stats

Other than seeing the data about the positions of any keyword, you can take a more in-depth look into it. If you click on the graph near the keyword, you will see a more detailed graph of position changes.

In the opened window, you can analyze SERP for a keyword, see trends and filter out the results.

You can also view a snapshot of SERP for the last data collection. To view it, click on "View snapshot"
