Enhancement Idea

    First, the Digital Point Keyword Tracker is an awesome tool.

    I track over a hundred keywords for two of my web sites.

    When I use the tool, I always count how many ups and downs I had for the day.

    It would be cool to have these statistics generated automatically:

    1. Raw number of SERPS that went up and down. (3 up / 2 down)
    2. Number of total points you gained or lost. (+41)
    3. Number of total points you gained or lost, not counting oblivion drops. (Those skew the numbers too much)

    What do you think?

    Good idea.

    I track the rankings of rival sites as well so it would be good if the tool could show the points gained/lost for each URL otherwise rival sites results will affect your own sites.

    It's something on my "to-do" list already, but not a huge priority at this point.

    Since we are tossing out ideas for the awesome keyword tracker (wonder if Shawn gets tired of all the kudos?!?), maybe consider providing a summary statement from "Check All" - i.e. I have a home-grown keyword tracker that does the top-100 keyphrases from my Apache logs each night and generates a report - at the bottom, it says:


    www.komar.org Google stats: Looked up 100 keywords in 157 seconds using 188 Google queries - 1.88 average queries/keyword

    www.komar.org Google stats: 20 Number Ones (20%) and 83 Top Tens (83%) and 94 Top Hundreds (94%)


    BTW, those stats look "good" because the keyphrases samples are self-selected - i.e. typically the reason a keyphrase shows up often in my Analog report is because it is ranked high! ;-)

    alek

    P.S. Although note there is always a handful of keyphrases that I'm "popular" in search engines besides Google, so even though Google generates the majority of my inbound SE referall traffic, the others chip in a few.
