Track your Google Maps ranking across a geo-grid around your business for any keyword, with a heatmap, average rank and the top competitors at each point.
A local-SEO tool that lays a configurable geographic grid (3x3 up to 9x9) around a business and issues Google Maps searches for each keyword from every grid point to measure local visibility. The connector matches the target listing by its unique place id at each point, records whether the business appears and its position in the local results, captures the top competitors seen from each location (including rating, review count, website and address), records point coordinates and distance from the business, and computes aggregated outputs such as a colour-coded rank heatmap, average rank metrics, top-3 share (local voice), a rank matrix across the grid, and competitor frequency across the service area.
