A lightweight, local rank checker that gives you a quick SERP snapshot without leaving Firefox.

What People Use It For

  • Quickly verify if a page ranks for a specific keyword on Google, Bing, or Yahoo.
  • Compare positions across multiple keywords in one batch.
  • Export ranking data to CSV for offline analysis or client reports.
  • Check international rankings by selecting Google country versions (e.g. Google.co.uk, Google.de).
  • Use as a free alternative to cloud-based rank trackers for occasional spot checks.

Quick Start – Install and Run a Rank Check

  1. Install Firefox – The extension only works in Firefox. If you don't have it, download and install Firefox first.
  2. Add the extension – Go to the SEO Book Rank Checker page and click the install link. Restart Firefox when prompted.
  3. Open the tool – After installation, you'll see the rank checker icon in the Firefox toolbar (or find it under Tools > SEOBook Rank Checker).
  4. Enter your domain and keywords – Type your domain (e.g., example.com) and one or more keywords (separated by commas or lines).
  5. Choose search engine – Select Google, Bing, or Yahoo, and optionally a Google country version.
  6. Run the check – Click the check button. The tool will display the SERP position for each keyword.
  7. Export results – Click the export button to download a CSV file of the ranking data.

When Not to Start Here

  • You need daily automated rank tracking with history and alerts – use a dedicated rank tracker tool instead.
  • You require mobile or local (city-level) rank data – this extension checks desktop only and lacks location targeting.
  • You want to analyze click-through rates, impressions, or traffic – complement with Google Search Console.
  • You expect a full SEO audit – rank checking alone ignores technical, content, and backlink issues.
