When a rival moves up, you can look at what changed on their profile. When you move, you can connect it to the work you did. What it is ## What is a competitor tracker? Local rankings are relative. You are not only improving your own profile. You are competing with nearby businesses that keep updating theirs. Most businesses guess at this side of it. Someone checks the search results by hand now and then, and the picture is forgotten by next week. The tracker keeps the picture. It knows who actually ranks around you, what their profiles contain, and what changed since the last scan. map pack: “dentist near me” 1. Bright Smile DentalRIVAL 2. Your practiceYOU 3.

Those are strong hints, though nobody outside Google can promise a cause. **Q: What is review share of voice?** A comparison of review activity across your market. Who has more, who collects faster, and whose newest review is freshest. **Q: Can I compare today with an earlier scan?** Yes. Scan comparisons show what moved and let you line the movement up with what changed on each profile. **Q: Is this useful for a single location?** Yes.
