Map Rank Tracker Competitors’ Report: See your local search standings vs your top competition.

One of the biggest hurdles in local search is not knowing who you’re battling — or where you stand amid the pack. Without that info, it’s very difficult to improve your performance vs your competition, and get your business in front of more potential customers.

The new Competitors’ Report in Map Rank Tracker reveals:
  • Your stiffest local competition
  • The slice of the search pie they own
  • How you measure up, on a map of different local searches all across your service area
The report shows that info week to week, day to day, or month to month, for up to 100 keywords. In short, it reveals how they’re beating you at local search ... and how you can beat them instead.

How the new Competitors’ Report helps local businesses thrive

The Competitors’ Report levels up your local search game, with:
  • Insights into local competition: See a Google Maps view of the top local businesses in your industry, ranked in order.
  • Comparisons and insights: View your share of voice in terms of search visibility vs the other top contenders in your area, so you can gauge your brand awareness and dominance and make smarter decisions about how to grow your sales.
  • Enlightening granularity: Set up tracking on one keyword or 100, for any date range or repeating interval you like. Then view a simple heat map that shows your share of voice for those keywords in a convenient bubble chart.
This is super useful, because you can use it to track your company’s performance over time. You’ll find out if you’re improving, by how much, and where you need to devote more effort.
