Hi all,
You have no tool to check keyword ranks? Tired of keeping an eye closely to your sitename or URL in Google SERPs? Here's something you may find useful.
Required: Firefox browser & its addon Firebug (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1843) :-)
Steps:
1. Open Google.com in Firefox; Type your keyword & Enter (ex: search engine optimization). Click Advanced Search, choosing 100 Results displayed. And click Google Search to go back the SERPs.
2. Ctril + F or Edit/Find in this page & type your site URL (ex: www.searchenginewatch.com).
3. Open Firebug (Tools/Firebug/Open Firebug).
4. Alt + N or click Next in Find box to find your URL (page 3 in this case).
5. If your URL's found. Click Inspect on your Opened Firebug.
6. Mouse over your site Title & notice the bold number below in Firebug:
<a onmousedown="return clk(this.href,'','','res','17','')" class="l" href="http://searchenginewatch.com/showPage.html?page=2167921">SearchEngineWatch: Intro to <b>Search Engine Optimization</b></a>
Of course, your site's keyword rank is 17.
Hope this helps a bit.
