See exactly where your business shows up on Google Maps across a 25-point grid around your location. Create a free account and get 10 checks every month.
A local rank checker shows where your business appears in Google Maps results for a search, measured from the places your customers actually search from.
Start typing your business name and pick it from the list.
Use the words a customer would type, such as "emergency plumber".
We search from 25 points around you and colour each one by your position.
Google Maps doesn't show everyone the same results. Google says local results are based mainly on relevance, distance and prominence, so the distance between the searcher and your business changes the order. You can be first on the street outside your door and off the list two miles away.
A local SEO rank checker measures that. Instead of one search from one spot, it runs the same search from a grid of points around your business, sometimes called a geo-grid. The result is a map of where customers can find you and where they can't. If you want to improve what you see, our guide to ranking higher on Google Maps is a good next step.
Each point is coloured by where you rank there, so strong and weak areas stand out.
One number for your overall visibility, and how much of the area sees you in the top 3.
Click any point to see your exact position from that spot.
A check is a snapshot of one keyword at one moment. Results can shift from day to day, so treat a single check as a guide, not a final score.
The free checker answers "where do I rank today?". If you need to track changes, cover bigger areas or report to clients, use our Google Maps rank tracker.

Rank Replay isn't part of free checks. It uses the scan history from the full Rank Tracker. See how Rank Replay works.
See whether customers across town can find you for the services you offer, and check again after you update your profile.
