Rank Table
Enhanced Project, Group, and Tag search with match type selection
We’ve improved the keyword search experience within projects, groups, and tags by introducing Match Type Selection:
Broad Match (default):
Finds all keywords that contain the search term within a phrase.- Example: Searching for “toothpaste” will return results like “best toothpaste for sensitive teeth” or “fluoride-free toothpaste”.
Exact Match
: Shows only keywords that exactly match the search term.- Example: Searching for “toothpaste” will return only “toothpaste” and exclude variations like “toothpaste brands”.
This enhancement gives you more control over how you search, making it easier to find the keywords you need.
We’ve introduced a new column called ‘Tracked URL’ to enhance your Ranking Table, PDF Reports, live ViewKey links, and CSV exports. The ‘Tracked URL’ displays the URL you entered when adding a keyword, whether through the app or via CSV upload.
Additionally, two new icons have been added next to the URL to help you easily identify the tracking method:
- Exact URL Icon: Indicates the keyword is tracking the specific URL.
- Broad URL Icon: Indicates the keyword is tracking a broader domain or subdomain.
This new field is also included in the CSV export, providing even more flexibility and visibility into your tracked URLs.
To add this column to tour Ranking Table or reports go to the Settings > Table and select the field.

With these changes, managing your keyword tracking preferences has never been easier or more precise.

- The Ranking Table now features icons in the URL column to indicate whether tracking is set to “Broad” or “Exact.”
- Tooltips for these icons provide additional clarity, displaying both the “Tracking Method” and the status of the “Ignore Sub-Domain” setting.
PDF Reports & CSV Exports:
- PDF exports now include the new “Broad Domain” icon for better visual representation.
- CSV exports include two new columns: “Tracking Method” (showing “Broad” or “Exact”) and “Ignore Sub-Domain” (showing “Yes” or “No”).
API
