Search Tracker is a tool that runs a series of search queries based on keywords that you indicate, measuring how frequently your business appears in knowledge cards, local packs, and organic results. The compiled results allow you to gauge how likely a customer is to choose your business in search. To compare your presence of search to up to five competitors, see Set Up Competitive Intelligence.
