Local rank checker
Your Google Maps rank changes from one part of town to the next. Enter your business and a search, and Reach checks a 3×3 grid of nine points around you.

Each point fills in with your rank after the first check.
What you learn
- Where you show in the top 3 on Google Maps, and where you drop out of sight.
- How far from your door customers still find you for a search.
- Which searches to work on first, once you track your own.
What it can't tell you
- A 3×3 grid samples nine points; real searches happen everywhere in between.
- Google personalises results, so one person's phone can show a different order.
- The first check takes a few minutes; the grid fills in on your Visibility screen when it is done.
Questions
A set of points on the map around your business. At each one, the checker looks up a search the way a person standing there would and records your position.
Google weighs how close each business is to the person searching, so the same search shows a different order a few kilometres away.
Each check asks Google from the nine points of a 3×3 grid, so it runs on a free Reach account under its plan. Your search is saved and checked as soon as you sign up.
Every week for the searches you track, so you can see whether changes to your profile move you up.
