Competitor Position Monitoring
Know who is overtaking you, on which keywords, and since when.
Privacy and cost
This feature needs an active subscription because it runs recurring checks and alerts on our infrastructure. You can run the equivalent check on demand with credits.
How it works
- Track your keywords with the rank tracker.
- Add competitor domains to your project.
- On every scheduled check we read their position in the same search result as yours.
Example
For "trail running shoes" you rank 6th (was 9th) and competitor.com ranks 4th (was 4th): you are climbing but still behind them.
What the result means
The position is the domain's best result in the top 100 for the keyword's country, language and device. ">100" means the domain does not appear in the top 100. A position is only shown once it has really been measured.
Common problems this tool helps with
- Not knowing which competitor takes your spots.
- Comparing dozens of results by hand.
- Noticing a new competitor too late.
Frequently asked questions
How many competitors can I track?
Up to 5 per project on Pro and 10 on Agency.
Does it use credits?
No: positions come from the same check as your own ranking, which is included in the subscription.
When are positions updated?
On every check of your keywords, daily or weekly depending on your setting.
