Position Checker

As the saying goes, "What's measured is managed." If you are going to improve your search engine rankings then you are going to need to check your positions in the top engines on a regular basis.

Position Checker monitors the top 30 results in the major engines for your most important phrases and will track your results over time. Rather than bombard you with 1500 pages of unreadable detail, Position Checker is more about providing information on your visibility. Position Checker is designed to track your top phrases in the Engines that might actually send you some visitors if you get ranked. You can track up to 100 terms and divide these into smaller lists or baskets of terms representing particular subject sets that you are targetting.

This way you can get meaningful and easy to digest information on the overall success of your activities for your most important phrases. Position Checker's Search Visibility Score measures your visibility for each engine and for each phrase. Graphing allows you to easily identify gaps in your efforts such as poor rankings across a particular engine or phrase. Historical graphing allows you to see how your efforts are bearing fruit over time by tracking changes to your visibility. Again these graphs break out information by engine and by phrase.

Want to identify your top competitors and what rankings they have? No problem. Position Checker gives information not just on your site but on all the top sites in your market. You can easily identify the competition, what they rank for and where you stand in relation to them. This can be really useful information. You can use it to inform your own search marketing or as a sales tool to attract customers. Position Checker will give you details on the top sites across each basket of terms you monitor and also the top performers in each of the engines.

TIP: When you use Position Checker to identify sites and pages that outperform you in general, or in specific niches, you can use our other tools to find out why.

Position Checker currently checks results in Google, Yahoo, MSN, AOL and Netscape.
