Where does your business show on Google Maps when someone in your town searches for what you do? Check your Map Pack spot and the top 20 local results.

Why your Google Maps rank matters

When someone searches "plumber near me", Google shows a map with three businesses before any website. Those three get most of the calls.

A normal rank checker tells you where your website sits. This local rank checker looks at the map instead, which is where local customers decide. For your website rankings, use the keyword rank checker.

How to check your local ranking

  1. 1
    Enter your business name

    Type it exactly as it shows on your Google listing.

  2. 2
    Add a keyword

    The words a customer would type, like "plumber" or "emergency dentist".

  3. 3
    Add your town

    The town or zip code you want to show up in.

  4. 4
    Read your position

    See your spot in the top 20 and who sits above you.

This tool searches your keyword plus your town, the way people search for a service in a place. Someone standing next to your shop may see a different order. That is what a geogrid measures.

Frequently asked

Google Maps rankings, in plain words.

What is a local rank checker?

+

It shows where your business appears on Google Maps when someone searches for a service in your town, like "plumber Austin TX". Position 1 to 3 is the Map Pack, the box of three businesses Google shows above the normal results.

How does this Google Maps rank checker work?

+

We run your keyword plus your town on Google Maps and read the first 20 results. Then we look for your business name in the list. Results are saved for 24 hours, so the same search shows the same answer for a day.

Why is my position different when I search on my phone?

+

Google Maps changes results based on where the searcher is standing. Someone two streets away can see a different order than someone across town. This tool shows one view of your town. A geogrid check runs the same search from many spots around your business.

Why can't the tool find my business?

+

Use the name exactly as it shows on Google. If it still does not show, your listing may be below position 20 for that keyword, or Google may treat it as a different category. Try a keyword closer to your main category.

How do I rank higher on Google Maps?

+

Google says local results depend on relevance, distance and prominence. You can not move your address, but you can fill in every part of your profile, pick the right categories, add photos, and keep getting and answering reviews.

How often should I check my local rankings?

+

Once a week is plenty. Map positions move slowly, and changes to your profile take days to weeks to show. The Local SEO add-on re-checks your map automatically so you see the trend.

Is this local rank tracker free?

+

Yes, one check at a time with no sign-up. Checks are limited per minute and per day so the tool stays free. For tracking over time, use the geogrid in the Local SEO add-on.
