01
Configure the market
Choose the search engine, device, country, language and optional city. Each search engine and device combination is measured separately.
How each ranking check is measured.
Realtime Ranking is built for current, one-time checks. Each result is tied to a keyword, search engine, device, country, language and optional city, so the Excel report is easy to explain and compare.
02
Measure current search results
Each check uses the market settings you choose. The report shows what was found during processing, so every result is tied to a clear measurement time.
03
Filter organic web results
Special search result features without a standard web URL, such as question boxes or image blocks, are ignored. Only organic web links are counted.
04
Match domains safely
The report matches your domain and its subdomains. Lookalike hosts such as example.com.evil.test are not treated as matches.
05
Write the Excel report
Every sheet contains keyword, domain, position, found URL, page title, measurement time, status and checked depth.
Up to 100 organic results
Google checks request up to 100 results. Bing top-100 checks need more retrieval steps because Bing returns fewer results per page.
Organic positions only
Ads, maps, images and other special result elements are excluded from the organic position count.
Clear status values
Missing rankings and failed checks are reported as different statuses in the Excel file.
