Ranking History Date Ranges
Ranking history is viewable over 30d, 60d, 90d, 1y, or All-time ranges on the trend chart and per-keyword history; exact custom start/end dates aren't available, and chart detail depends on each keyword's check frequency.
The Rank Tracker lets you view ranking history over five date ranges: 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, 1 year, or all time. Pick the window that matches the question you're asking - recent volatility, campaign impact, or the long arc since tracking began.
Where Date Ranges Appear
Position trend chart. The range buttons - 30d, 60d, 90d, 1y, All - sit above the chart in the Rank Tracker. The selected range applies to the average-position line and, in vs Comp mode, to the competitor lines too.
Per-keyword history. Open any keyword's history (the chart icon on its row) and the same range options control that keyword's position chart, alongside its best and worst positions.
Choosing a Range
- 30d - the default. Recent movement, immediate impact of changes you just made.
- 60d / 90d - campaign-scale trends; enough distance to separate real movement from SERP noise.
- 1y - seasonality and long-term direction.
- All - the complete record since you started tracking the keyword.
What Fills the Range
Charts can only show checks that actually ran, so the detail inside a range depends on each keyword's tracking frequency: a daily keyword draws roughly 30 points in a 30-day window, a weekly keyword 4, a monthly keyword 1. Gaps mean no check ran that day - for example if credits ran out or the keyword was added mid-window. To get finer-grained history going forward, raise the keyword's frequency (see Tracking Frequency Options).
FAQ
Can I pick exact start and end dates?
Not currently - the five preset ranges are the options. The All view plus per-keyword history covers most investigations; export the keyword table as CSV if you need to slice data by arbitrary dates elsewhere.
Why does my 1y chart only show a few months?
The chart starts where your data starts. If tracking began in May, a 1-year view shows history from May onward.
Does changing the range cost credits?
No. Ranges only change how stored history is displayed.
