Actual page placement (rank)

InSource1 · 07-04-2010, 03:20 PM

Is there a way (a tool) to find the actual number of pages that
are ahead of you? It would be nice to see exactly how placement
is affected by SEO work. Google's PR doesn't tell one much.

Thanks.

Why not just count the links in the SE results that are in front of you?

Ummm, I don't know where to start... I checked many pages @ 10 results per page. Is that the only way?
Thx

Change the setting to 100 results per page

If you aren't afraid of sharing your site ownership with Google then their Webmaster Tools is the best way to track rank positions across multiple data centres. This is only useful if your page is getting impressions in the rankings though.

If not, Market Samurai has a nice rank tracker in it, plus I think there is one on SEOMoz.

Thank you. I'll have a look at SEOMoz (free).
