Local Search Rank Checker is a useful web-based tool that allows you to efficiently check and track your local search engine positions. Here’s a quick overview of its features (you can run your own test drive and share your opinion: this doesn’t require any registration or payment)
Track Your Local Rankings
The tool is very easy to use. To start, you don’t even have to login: just provide the following details for a test drive:
- Your search terms (you can provide a maximum of 25 local phrases for one free/basic report);
- Your domain name;
- Your country (US or UK);
- Your company details (optional);
- The search engines you want the tool to crawl.
View the Report
The resulting report contains the following details:
- Your current position in each search engine;
- Your last position;
- The type of result (organic, directory listing, local – e.g., Google Places).
Here’s a quick infographic that gives an even more detailed explanation of what you get in your report:
You can export the report as a CSV and/or PDF file.
You can also report incorrect results if you find any.
A few more essential details you need to know when using the tool:
- It digs through the top 50 search results within all search engines and local search engines;
- Apart from the specified search engines, it also crawls local directories to spot the business mentions there.
Save the Report
As a user, you can test it out for free 5 times before being prompted to register for a package and a 30-day free trial. An account allows you to save your reports. So you get a more complete experience when logged in.
You can also schedule a weekly or monthly ranking report and specify five email addresses to have the report emailed to.
