    Honestly guys i wouldn't even use serp tracking software anymore, google is starting to catch on and realizes people that are tracking serps are the ones who are trying to manipulate the rankings. So in other words by you constantly checking the serps through these software's, your hurting your rankings. I just got this info from one of my subcriptions. CHECK IT MANUALLY.

      that is the absolute dumbest thing i have ever heard. trolling maybe? that isalso one of the worst assumptions i have ever heard in my entire life. because im tracking my rankings i must be doing black hat SEO. and because i decide to go out with friends, when im going home i must be driving drunk, no chance i could be sober.

      if you are running an online business part of that is knowing where you show up in the search engines. its simple business practice. so maybe i should just check my competitors ranking to hurt their rank....

      check it manually, that is probably thee BIGGEST waste of time ever for anyone running an online business. does it not say i want to track 2000 keywords, am you want me to do that manually.............. ludicrus
      hmmmm competitive analysis also a big part of running a business.

      or you could just run it through a proxy hmmmmm

      in no way did you attempt to answer my question, only give me horrible advice

      thanks

      This is the most baseless, uninformed post you could make on the subject. If you don't know what you are talking about.....simply do not post. You are not helping people when you spread this type of bs.

    You have to be able to track your keywords just as part of your business. If a company really sent you that information I would be shocked!

    Suddenly today it seems as though SEScout have ironed out the major kinks. All my sites look to be displaying pretty much correctly at last. Would recommend.

    Can't imagine how you can have 2000 keywords for 2 domains... and why you need that many:confused:

    Rank Tracker works good, but I guess it is meant for more reasonable numbers of keywords.

    • Yea Rank checker for me as well. I know I shouldn't bother checking every day, but I find it addictive. I have a list of about 20 keywords for a bunch of my different sites and every morning the first thing I do is load it into Rankchecker and see how they are doing. What a rush

    I know the SEScout.com guys, they have a nice setup. Been crunching under load with all of their new users, but it looks like that's behind them and they're running smoothly lately.

    They have a free account you can try as well.
