Guides on measuring your Google rankings, reading changes and interpreting them correctly.
Rank tracking means regularly measuring where your site appears on Google for specific keywords and following how that changes over time. A single measurement says little; the real information is seeing whether the same keyword has moved up over several weeks. Because rank changes with the person, the location and the device, good tracking holds those three constant and stays away from personalised results.
This category is for business owners curious about their site, anyone who wants to see the result of their SEO work, and agencies that report to clients. The guides answer questions like these: What is rank tracking and which keywords should you follow? Why does Google's ranking change every day and when should you worry? In what order do you check things when a rank drops? Why do mobile and desktop results differ? Why does the average position in Search Console differ from the real rank? How do you move page-two keywords to page one? The guides make no promises about rank; they only show how to measure and interpret it.
To start with SEOLOK, use the free Google rank checker: type a keyword, choose a province and device, and see where your site appears in the first 50 results. For regular tracking you add keywords on the My keywords page in the panel; rank is measured daily on the daily plans and weekly on the free plan, and quick filters separate the ones that dropped from those at 11–20. To compare an old and a new rank by hand, the free rank change calculator shows the places gained or lost at once.
