Keyword search. Review of free programs for removing positions Program for tracking queries in a search engine

I think most of my readers are engaged in promoting websites, their own or client ones. In order to see trends in the behavior of promoted queries, it is necessary to constantly monitor the positions of sites. Naturally, it is more convenient to do this not manually, but automatically. Today’s post will be devoted to a review of free programs and services that can be used to remove the positions of promoted sites. I hope the post will be useful not only to beginners.
List of free desktop programs for removing positions.

SiteAuditor

SiteAuditor– probably the first program that a novice SEO specialist encounters. Once created by the legendary Ashmanov, it still copes with its tasks. The “Site Visibility” function deserves special praise, which provides fairly complete information about the percentage of requests for a promoted site in the TOP, as well as information about competitors for each key. By the way, they now manage to call SiteAuditor an “SEO module” and shove it into the UMI CMS. It doesn't look very good.
I don’t know if this can be classified as a disadvantage, but the program constantly requires updating Flash and does not work very quickly.

The program is small and, compared to SiteAuditor, works faster. SESpider allows you to remove positions in a large number of search engines, including such exotic ones as all.by. It is possible to import projects from SiteAuditor and Semonitor into the program. Of the minuses: there is no way to register a region for Yandex (by default, only Moscow, St. Petersburg and Ukraine are built in).

Majento PositionMeter

Majento PositionMeter- a fairly new program that I liked for its asceticism and simplicity. It works quickly and does not load the system. Among the functions - collection of positions in Yandex and Google, TCI, PR. Here you can clearly see the dynamics of growth/decline of positions and export everything to TXT or CSV. There are plug-in AntiGate and Yandex.XML. Plus a built-in Wordstat scanner that can check queries in the style of “” and “! » and allows you to select a region. In general, nothing superfluous.

Seo Analyzer (hamele0n)

Seo Analyzer (hamele0n)- a fairly functional program, but with an inconvenient interface. Some things I don’t understand at all: why does the user need to see region numbers? Why authorization on Rambler? If the report can be saved in CSV, then why “Export Excel”? Among the advantages, we can highlight the parser of search tips and the currently non-working module for checking links for indexing.

Dear friends, today I decided to put together all the programs and services for checking website positions. It took me 5 days to systematize the material and write this post.

From time to time people write to me asking questions about how to track positions for promoted search queries and what monitoring tool I use. In order not to answer every time and just give a link to my blog, I decided to make today’s selection. Laziness is the engine of progress 😉!

There are two large groups of tools for monitoring positions - programs and services. There are also scripts and applications for Android and iOS. And there are also English-language instruments. I'll tell you about them too.

TopSite is a program for checking a site's position in search engines (Yandex, Google, Mail.ru). You can add any number of domains to check positions, and requests within one domain can be divided into groups. Positions are collected selectively or across all domains at once. Request collection is configured via Yandex XML, XMLProxy or directly from Yandex or Google results. You can also configure the collection of positions in the background throughout the day.

Main functions of the program:

How to check site positions in the TopSite program

Initially, setting up request collection is not as intuitive as we would like. I would like to just add queries, a domain and start collecting, but this turns out to be a slightly longer path by two steps. Once you figure it out, this nuance will no longer bother you.

In the list of projects block, right-click and select “Add project”. Enter any name we want our project to be called.

Now in the request group block you need to enter the desired number of groups into which you will divide your requests. Grouping queries is needed when, say, you have optimized a couple of pages and you need to monitor queries for each page. If this is not necessary, and you want to collect all requests en masse, then simply give any name to the group.

Next, click on the “Add requests” button (1). When adding keywords to the right of a query, you can indicate its frequency (let's say we copied data from Wordstat.Yandex). You can also add keywords by right-clicking on the main window (block 3) and clicking the "Insert" button.

That's it, requests have been added. Don't forget to add the region in which you will check the positions in the search results and the domain you are interested in. Now click “Start checking” and in a couple of seconds we get our positions. The collection speed is amazing.
Here is an excerpt from the program’s help - determining site positions in Yandex and Google:

Yandex XML: 200 keywords per minute.
Yandex: 120 keywords per minute (1-2 captchas).
Google: 150 keywords per minute (1-2 captchas).
Mail: 80 keywords per minute (3-4 captchas).

I am also the owner of SERPParser, but I was not able to achieve such a low number of captchas at such a speed there. Collecting positions can be done for free through Yandex XML limits at the expense of the limits of your sites or for a fee in the XMLProxy service
http://xmlproxy.ru (the XMLProxy service also provides everyone with 100 checks per day for free, which can be used in TopSite). But in fact, limits are not a problem and you can collect positions absolutely free. We just put the program in the “Auto-Check” mode, set the collection via Yandex search in the settings, set the pauses between requests to search for more and that’s it. TopSite itself will check your entire pool of requests throughout the day absolutely free of charge, without even spending on captchas. Let’s say from 8 am to 8 pm the position collection program will check 1440 requests without captchas with a pause of 30 seconds.

The program for searching sites by keywords also collects the visibility of the site and all other domains that are shown based on your queries in the Yandex and Google search engines. As a result, we get a list of real competitors.

There is a display of a graph of changes in site positions for each request.

In addition to the main function of mass collection of positions in TopSite, it is possible to cluster queries by Yandex or Google. Those. the program searches for identical domains in the search results for each request and, depending on the setting of the degree of similarity of the results, combines or puts requests into different groups. To switch to grouping mode, you need to click on the button, add our requests to the main field and click “Start checking”. By the numbers in the green squares, we will find out whether the requests belong to the same group or need to be distributed to different pages.

Well, as a bonus, the TopSite program also serves to select keywords for the site and can download keys from Wordstat.Yandex. If you enable the "Recursive" function, then after the first collection of queries, the program will continue to automatically enter the received keys into Wordstat one by one and upload queries based on them. We select a region, insert queries, filter by stop words, set the minimum collection frequency and launch.

For those who provide SEO services for website promotion, you can generate reports in Excel or HTML format. At the same time, you can customize the output format itself in the form.html if you wish.

The TopSite program for checking positions is paid, the price is now 999 rubles for an eternal license. But there is also a free full trial for 15 days for Windows and Linux. The author is constantly developing his project. On the forum of the program’s author, you can see that all the “wants” of buyers are realized quite quickly. Now we are asking for the opportunity to upload groups of one domain at once and the opportunity to use your own proxies when collecting positions directly from search results.
