📍 YouTube Rank Tracker

Check where your video ranks in YouTube search for any keyword — live position in the top 50, who outranks you, and what to change.

What you get

Your video's live position in the top 50 YouTube search results for the keyword (or "not in the top 50"), the 10 videos ranking above you by name, the gap to page one, what the top results have in common, and a prioritised list of title, description, chapter and tag changes. Run it again after changes to compare positions.

Input: Keyword | your video link or channel name — e.g. budget espresso grinder | youtu.be/abc123XYZ00

How it works

  1. Paste the link — Keyword | your video link or channel name — e.g. budget espresso grinder | youtu.be/abc123XYZ00
  2. Run the analysis — Click Analyse. The report streams in live, usually within 10 seconds.
  3. Work the action list — Read the headline scores, then fix the top item in the prioritised action list. Re-run to compare.

Guide: how to use YouTube Rank Tracker

A video that ranks fourth for its keyword gets a fraction of the traffic of one that ranks first, and most creators do not know where they rank at all. The YouTube Rank Tracker checks the live top 50 search results for your keyword, tells you exactly where your video sits (or that it is not in the top 50), names the videos above you, quantifies the gap to page one, and recommends the metadata changes most likely to close it.
