Is there a way to check what my ranking is for a specific keyword? (without just searching it myself and scrolling through until I see my site)
Please try Rank Checker at seobook.com. It works for multiple keywords : http://tools.seobook.com/firefox/rank-checker/
yes, you can use IBP tool to track your ranking for specific keyword. You can also use paid Rank Tracker tool that gives you record of your ranking for specified keywords.
This is the tool i use, it's a plugin for fire-fox. Add the keywords you want to search for and then save them for later use. I check over 100 keywords daily with it, it's great
There are many tools available on net but all are inaccurate..i mean they will not give you 100% accuracy...so, if you need 100% accurate results then manual rank check is the best way to do this.
well i strongly suggest that you should try manual checking rather than to use a tool they are all in accurate. but if you really insist try to use geoseo.com
I also use http://tools.seobook.com/firefox/rank-checker/ to check my website rankings for hundreds of keywords at a time
I have been using rank checker recently, very good free tool, but it picks up Google local as a result, which although makes your SERP looks better, it can be misleading, especially if your client manually searches their results to ensure there validity
