Track where your keywords rank on Google

The Rank Tracker checks Google once a day for each keyword you choose and records the position of the project's website. It shows movement over the last week and flags searches where Google shows an AI Overview or a featured snippet.

Steps

1. 1

   Open the Rank Tracker tab

   On: Project, Keywords

   Open Keywords in the project and choose the Rank Tracker tab.

   You should see: With nothing tracked yet, a list titled "Pick keywords to track". With no saved keywords at all, a prompt to run keyword research first.

2. 2

   Pick keywords to track

   On: Project, Keywords

   Each tracked keyword runs one rank check a day, so start with the most important ones. Choose keywords from the list to start tracking them. The counter at the top shows how many you track out of your plan's limit.

   You should see: The keyword moves into the tracked table.

3. 3

   Read the table

   On: Project, Keywords

   Each row shows Volume, Difficulty (0 to 100, higher is harder), CPC, Position, the 7-day change, the URL of your page that ranks, and Last checked. "Not in top 100" means Google does not show the site in the first hundred results for that keyword.

   You should see: You can say which keywords moved up or down this week.

4. 4

   Read the answer-box flags

   On: Project, Keywords

   AIO means Google shows an AI Overview for that search. Snippet means someone else holds the featured snippet. Snippet · yours means your page holds it.

   You should see: You can find the keywords where an answer box sits above the normal results.

5. 5

   Use the quick filters

   On: Project, Keywords

   The filters above the table are Easy wins, High volume and Featured-snippet opportunities. Start with Easy wins. Clear filter shows everything again.

   You should see: The table shows only the keywords in that group.

6. 6

   Refresh on demand

   On: Project, Keywords

   Rankings refresh by themselves once a day. To check now, press Refresh now on one row or Refresh all at the top.

   You should see: Last checked changes to the current time.

7. 7

   Stop tracking a keyword

   On: Project, Keywords

   Use Stop tracking on a row when a keyword no longer matters. The history already collected is kept.

   You should see: The keyword leaves the tracked table and frees one slot.

Tips

• Use Set target → on a row to record which page should rank for that keyword.
• A banner reading "Sample data" means live rankings are not connected for this workspace; the positions shown are examples.
• Position changes of one or two places from day to day are normal. Look at the weekly direction.

Troubleshooting

A keyword shows "Never checked".

It was added after today's check. Press Refresh now on its row.

You cannot track more keywords.

The plan's limit is reached. Stop tracking keywords you no longer need, or upgrade the plan.
