Keyword tracking
Choose which keywords, lists, or segments deserve recurring position checks. Their history stays close to tags, landing-page context, and the planning decisions behind every tracked keyword.
Select
Choose which keywords to track.
Select the keywords, lists, or segments that need recurring position checks instead of monitoring the whole inventory by default. The tracked set stays inside your database with the filters and planning context the team already uses.
When rankings change, SEO Monitoring helps you check whether the website changed too. The monitoring guide explains how to separate an observation from its possible cause.
Review
Track keyword rankings: current and historical positions together.
Review current and historical positions side by side, including the domains visible in the top-10 band. A gain or loss is an observation, not proof of cause, so each line keeps its landing-page, tag, and activity context for the next investigation.

Turn a notable drop into a task your team can investigate.
When a notable loss needs attention, keep its tags, landing page, and activity trail attached to the next planning or audit action. That gives the team a bounded investigation path without claiming that a recent edit automatically caused the movement.

How to read a keyword ranking change
Keyword tracking records positions over time. Use the example chart above to compare the same keyword, target market and landing page across runs. Then check Search Console to see how clicks and impressions changed.
Choose a manageable set
Start with the keywords and pages that support your current work. Keep relevant lists and tags beside the tracked set so you can find the affected page.
Compare like with like
A move from position 18 to 12 is an example of an observed gain. Check the measurement dates and target market, then inspect the landing page and results before assigning a cause.
Investigate before changing the page
For a notable loss, review whether the intended URL is still reachable and indexable, and whether it answers the search. Use Site Audit for technical findings and keep the next action with the keyword.
Does a better position guarantee more clicks?
No. Clicks also depend on the query, result-page layout and how well the page matches the visitor’s task. Use Search Console to compare actual clicks and impressions alongside ranking observations.
Is recurring tracking included in the free database?
Managing the keyword inventory is free. Ranking checks are data actions charged from prepaid balance. Review the selected scope and cost before starting or configuring paid work.
