How do I determine SERP for my site?

[jeffusa]

I have tried the Google Webmaster tools for one of my sites and it shows my site ranking 18th under one keyword but I noticed that is only in the Google Image search. I don't see the site in first 10 pages of the regular Google search.

How can I determine the SERP for my site? I don't care right now if it is in like 40,000th place. At least, it would give me a number so I can determine if my ranking is improving or not.

Use this FireFox extension to check where your site ranks for specific keywords.

Google only reports 1000 results for a given search query, so it only goes to 1000.

Thanks for recommending this tool, it provides some interesting results. I have found it to be not very accurate though in the limited testing I have done.

Still a lot more efficient than "scroll,scroll,click". :imho:

There are some tools to find position in SERPs, but I personally do not use them. As these tools send automated queries to Google, which Google does not like.

I check ranking in SERPs manually.

You can verify SERPs positions with:

- manual verications - setup Google with 100 results on page - I make the search and after that i click CTRL + F and search mysite.com. If the site is not in first 100 positions i change the page to page two and i repeat the operation. :wave:

- automatic verify - rank cheker by seotools.com - addon firefox.

Even though SERP checking is a complicated process, I prefer manual checking.

Use FireFox to check your site ranks for specific keywords.

I think first of all you need to make sure that your site must be indexed before searching it in SERP, because site are kept in sand box until they mature enough to be included in SERP.

It depends on your keywords. You have two ways: improve page rank by unlimited submissions to directories, blogs, forums and classified ads, and another way - make keyword optimization.

To make keyword optimization you must use keywords that are specific to the website main theme. In this way, you target specific search queries, what makes possibility to get a click on your website higher.

So if you have a health related website, there is no point to use general keywords, as "medicine" or "pharmacy". Because there are hundreds of millions of webpages that have this words. And if your website has a page rank less than 10, it will just get lost in search results and their will never be a click from the search engine.

Example: there is a purpose to increase traffic of a webpage Medications and Drugs Directory - dB2B database - Add URL of website from the health oriented companies.

There is no use to write "submit URL for FREE!!!!!!!"
We write "add medical URL for free", "add medical supplier for free to health directory"
It is also useful to add words as "Blood Pressure Management" or "Diabetes Care Products" - specific words that are included in the directory.

Only thousands are writing "Diabetes Care Products" and people, are looking for this are really looking for diabetes care products. This way there is a chance for a website with PR 3.

If you add a word "Immunoglobulins" to your keywords, there is a chance, that there will be a click one your website. To the webpage with PR less than 10 and with keywords "Submit URL" - there will never be a click!

This way chance to get a click from a search engine is more than 0.
Hope that will help
