Google rank tracking
A full-size rank tracker with a very small price
PicoRank is a full-featured Google keyword rank tracker for SEO pros, small site owners, and agencies. It tracks where you rank on Google — by country, by device, keyword by keyword — refreshing on a schedule and automatically whenever you change what's tracked. Competitor comparison, site audits, and shareable reports included. The only small thing about it is the price.
Free plan: 1 domain, 10 keywords, automatic checks (weekly, then fortnightly). No credit card required.
How it works
From keywords to clarity in three steps
How does PicoRank work? You add your domain and the keywords you care about; PicoRank looks up where your site ranks on Google across 150+ countries, on desktop and mobile, and refreshes those positions on a schedule — and automatically whenever you add or change what's tracked — rolling them into competitor comparisons and shareable reports.
- 1
Add your domain & keywords
Tell PicoRank which site to watch and the search terms that matter. Weight the keywords that count most.
- 2
We check the rankings
PicoRank looks up where you rank on Google in the countries you choose, on desktop and mobile — and can watch your competitors on the same keywords.
- 3
Get automatic updates
We refresh your positions on a schedule, and automatically whenever you add or change what's tracked — and roll them into reports that make progress easy to read.
Features
Everything the big tools do at the size you need
No “contact sales” tier — plans differ by size, not by hiding features. See the full feature tour.
-
Google rank tracking
Automatic position checks — weekly to start, then every two weeks — for every keyword you track, and an automatic re-check whenever you add or change keywords. History builds automatically.
-
Countries & devices
Track rankings in 150+ countries, on desktop and mobile separately — because position 3 in Berlin on a phone is its own truth.
-
Competitor tracking
Watch competitor domains on your exact keywords: who's above you, who's slipping, and your share of voice over time.
-
SEO reports you can share
Positions, movers, geo and device breakdowns, backlinks, CSV export — plus shareable and embeddable report links for clients.
-
Automated site audits
A crawler runs 26 SEO checks across your whole site — broken links, titles, alt text, canonicals, Core Web Vitals — with concrete fixes.
-
Smart keyword workbench
Lists, labels, and suggestions pulled from Search Console, GA4, your own content — and AI when you want fresh ideas.
Why so cheap?
A small price is an engineering choice, not a catch
Rank trackers mostly pay for the same thing: fetching search results. PicoRank fetches each tracked keyword result once per week and shares it across every customer watching that same keyword, country, and device — so nobody pays twice for the same lookup.
Add no sales team, no ad budget to recoup, and a product that runs lean, and the math simply lands lower. Plans run from $0 to $89 a month — Starter is $9, and the Free plan is free forever, not a trial.
What we don't shrink: the feature set. Competitor tracking, site audits, shareable reports, and integrations are in every plan.
Integrations
Plays well with Google Search Console and GA4
Connect Google Search Console and Google Analytics 4 with one click (or point at a property manually). PicoRank turns the queries you already rank for and the pages people already visit into keyword suggestions — so your tracking list reflects reality, not guesswork.
Both integrations are read-only and optional: rank tracking works fine without them.
Pricing
Start free. Grow into a small, honest bill.
Four plans, no "contact sales" tier, cancel anytime. Downgrades never delete your data — anything over the new limits just pauses until you upgrade or trim.
Free
See where you stand. Forever free, genuinely useful.

FAQ
Questions, answered
What does PicoRank track?
Where your domain ranks for the keywords you choose — per search engine, device (desktop or mobile), and geography — plus how competitor domains rank on those same keywords. A separate site audit checks the SEO health of your pages.
How often are rankings updated?
Automatically on every plan, including Free: on a schedule — weekly for a domain's first six weeks, then every two weeks — and automatically whenever you add or change what's tracked. The Weekly scanning add-on keeps a domain on weekly permanently.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. The Free plan needs no card and never expires: 1 domain, 20 keyword slots, automatic checks (weekly to start, then fortnightly), 1 competitor, and the site-audit summary.
What do the paid plans include?
Starter ($9/mo): 200 keyword slots, 5 competitors, full monthly site audit with PDF/Word reports. Pro ($29/mo): 1,000 slots, any search engine and geography (city-level included), 20 competitors, weekly audits, every report format including the LLM fix-list. Multi-Pro ($89/mo): 5 domains with 4,000 slots pooled across them, 50 competitors per domain, Pro-level everything.
What exactly is a keyword slot?
One slot tracks one keyword, on one search engine, on one device, in one geography, checked automatically (weekly for the domain's first six weeks, then every two weeks). Each extra dimension uses another slot: a second engine, a second device (desktop and mobile are separate results), a second geography, or the same keyword in a second scan — each is a separately fetched ranking, so each is billed as its own slot. Because devices count, we doubled every plan's included slots, so the usual desktop-and-mobile setup fits at the same price.
Can I track more than one domain?
Multi-Pro includes five domains with a shared pool of 4,000 keyword slots. On Starter and Pro you can add extra domains for $5/mo and $17/mo respectively, each with the plan's full limits.
