Intro
If you’re evaluating RanksPro for rank tracking, there’s a hard limitation you should be aware of before relying on it for serious SEO work.
RanksPro tracks rankings only in the Top 10. Anything ranking outside page one (positions 11–100) is not tracked or reported.
That makes RanksPro a page-one checker, not a full SERP tracking solution.
How RanksPro rank tracking actually works
RanksPro is built for simplicity and speed, but that simplicity comes with trade-offs:
- Tracks rankings positions 1–10 only
- No visibility into positions 11–100
- No early-stage ranking history
- No deep competitor tracking
- Limited context for SEO progress
If a keyword ranks at position 24, 57, or 83, RanksPro does not show it.
From a reporting point of view, that keyword hasn’t started ranking yet.
What this looks like in real SEO work
This limitation shows up quickly in day-to-day SEO.
Common experiences include:
- Keywords “appearing suddenly” when they hit the Top 10
- Long periods where rankings look flat
- No visibility into progress before page one
- Difficulty proving SEO work is paying off
Example:
- A keyword moves from position 92 → 64 → 38 → 17 You see nothing.
- It finally reaches position 9 Suddenly it appears.
All the momentum that led to that result is invisible.
Why Top 10-only tracking is a serious problem
SEO growth almost never starts on page one.
Most meaningful movement happens here:
- Page 10 → Page 7
- Page 7 → Page 5
- Page 5 → Page 3
Those are exactly the positions RanksPro does not track.

Without that data:
- Early momentum is missed
- SEO testing takes longer
- Algorithm reactions are harder to spot
- Competitor growth goes unnoticed
You only see the result, not the process.
The blind spots Top 10 tracking creates
With page-one-only tracking, you cannot:
- Measure early ranking improvements
- Validate content or link changes quickly
- Track competitors before they overtake you
- Diagnose drops below the Top 10
- Understand why rankings improved or declined
SEO becomes reactive instead of proactive.
How Ranktracker handles rank tracking differently
Ranktracker was rebuilt specifically to remove these blind spots.
With Ranktracker:
- Positions 1–100 are tracked
- Updates run daily
- No depth limits
- Full historical movement
- Clear competitor visibility across the SERP
If a keyword moves from position 97 → 71 → 44 → 26 → 11, you see every step.
Nothing disappears.
RanksPro vs Ranktracker in simple terms
RanksPro
- Tracks only Top 10
- No visibility beyond page one
- Early SEO progress hidden
- Limited competitive insight
Ranktracker
- Tracks full Top 100 daily
- Complete SERP visibility
- Momentum visible early
- Built for modern SEO workflows
One shows the finish line only. The other shows the entire race.
Who RanksPro works best for
RanksPro may be sufficient if:
- You only care about page-one rankings
- SEO is light or occasional
- Early-stage tracking isn’t important
But if your SEO depends on:
- Growing keywords from page 3–10
- Seeing momentum early
- Monitoring competitors before page one
- Making fast, data-driven decisions
Then Top 10-only tracking is not enough.
Bottom line
RanksPro tracks only the Top 10 rankings. Everything beyond page one is invisible.
Ranktracker tracks the full Top 100 every day, with no blind spots, no delays, and complete historical context.
If you want to understand how rankings actually move, not just when they finally arrive, daily Top 100 tracking matters.
