GMB Rank Tracker
A GMB Rank Tracker That Maps Your Google Business Profile Rankings
Google My Business is now called Google Business Profile, but the question is the same: where does your listing show up in the map pack? GridBeacon finds your profile by name or Google Maps link, searches your keyword from every point of a grid around it, and shows the rank your profile holds at each one.

What you can do
Put GMB Rank Tracker to Work
Any public profile
Track your own Google Business Profile, a client's or a competitor's. GridBeacon reads public Maps results, so no owner or manager access is needed.
The profile's rank at every point
Each grid point records where the profile ranked for your keyword, from #1 to beyond the results captured, coloured on a heatmap.
Who outranks the profile
Click any point to see every business Google listed there, with ratings and review counts. Open any competitor's grid from the same scan at no extra cost.
Service-area profiles
A profile with a hidden address still needs a centre point. Set it and the radius yourself so the grid covers the area you actually serve.
Profile changes beside rankings
On paid plans, GBP Activity monitoring keeps a timeline of detected profile changes, so a category or phone edit can be checked against the next scan.
Reviews in context
Review Intelligence analyses up to 500 public Google reviews for the profile and its competitors, to compare review growth with where each one ranks.
Step by step
From Setup to Your Next Decision
Add the profile
Search for the business by name and city, or paste its Google Maps link, and confirm the right listing (the right branch, for multi-location brands).
Choose keywords and a grid
Pick the service terms customers search and a grid and radius that cover your customers. The credit cost shows before you scan.
Run the scan
GridBeacon searches the keyword on Google Maps from each point and records the profile's position and the businesses ranked around it.
Repeat on the same settings
Rescan with the same centre, grid and radius, or schedule it on a paid plan, so changes in the profile's reach are real and comparable.
Plan your usage
Know the Credit Cost Before You Start
One credit per grid point, whichever profile you track. These examples scan one profile for three keywords, four times a month.
| Grid | Calculation | Credits a month |
|---|---|---|
| 5 × 5 | 3 × 25 × 4 | 300 |
| 9 × 9 | 3 × 81 × 4 | 972 |
| 13 × 13 | 3 × 169 × 4 | 2,028 |

A Clearer Picture for Owners and Agencies
Business owners
See how far your profile's top-3 visibility reaches before deciding which neighbourhoods or services to work on.
GBP managers and agencies
Track every client profile in one workspace, with unlimited profiles and keywords on paid plans.
Multi-location brands
Track each location's own profile with a grid around that branch, rather than one ranking for the whole brand.
GridBeacon measures where a profile ranks; it does not edit, verify or optimise Google Business Profiles, publish posts or reply to reviews. Rankings vary with location, keyword and time, so compare scans that use the same settings.
Straight answers
GMB Rank Tracker: Questions
Is a GMB rank tracker the same as a Google Business Profile rank tracker?
Yes. Google renamed Google My Business to Google Business Profile in 2021. A GMB rank tracker, GBP rank tracker and Google Maps rank tracker all measure where a business's profile appears in Google Maps and local pack results.
Do I need access to the Google Business Profile to track it?
No. GridBeacon reads public Google Maps results, so you can track any business's profile, including competitors', without logging in to it or being a manager.
How do I add my profile to GridBeacon?
Search for the business by name and city, or paste its Google Maps link, then confirm the listing. For brands with several locations, add each branch's own profile.
Can I track a service-area business with a hidden address?
Yes. Choose the grid's centre and radius yourself so the scan covers the area you serve. See the service-area business guide for how to place it.
How much does GMB rank tracking cost?
One credit per grid point: a 9 × 9 scan uses 81 credits. New accounts get 500 free credits. Paid plans start at $19.99 a month for 8,000 credits, with unlimited profiles and keywords.
Does GridBeacon track changes to the profile itself?
On paid plans, GBP Activity monitoring records detected public profile changes such as name, category, phone, hours, reviews and photos, for 300 credits per 30 days at the standard cost.
