Rank Tracking
Track keyword positions across search engines, monitor ranking changes over time, and identify opportunities for improvement.
How Rank Tracking Works
PixlSEO monitors your keyword rankings by checking search engine results for your target keywords. Rankings are tracked regularly and historical data is stored for trend analysis.
Keywords are automatically generated when a new client is added based on the website's content, and you can add custom keywords at any time.
Adding & Managing Keywords
Keywords can be added in several ways:
• Auto-generated — The platform analyzes your website and suggests relevant keywords • Manual Entry — Add specific keywords you want to track • From Topical Maps — Keywords generated through AI topical mapping • Bulk Import — Add multiple keywords at once
Each keyword tracks its current position, previous position, change direction, search volume, and difficulty score.
Local Rank Tracking
For businesses targeting local searches, PixlSEO tracks rankings with location context. This shows how your client ranks for keywords in their specific service area.
Combine rank tracking with the Local Grid feature to see geographic ranking distribution across your service area.
Analyzing Trends
The rank tracking dashboard shows:
• Position History — Chart showing ranking changes over time • Movement Summary — Keywords that improved, declined, or stayed stable • Top Opportunities — Keywords close to page 1 that could be pushed higher • Featured Snippets — Keywords where you appear in rich results
Use filters to segment by keyword group, position range, or date period.
