# What is JaySearch

**In a Nutshell**

* JaySearch has built to help SEO specialists monitor real\* keywords and track actual\* positions for their websites. As a result, SEOs can make better decisions and take more accurate actions.
* That's because keywords they monitor in a rank tracker often don't match phrases people are actually searching for, nor do they reflect actual positions on Google.
* Unlike most rank trackers that show each keyword position daily, JaySearch only displays the positions for keywords that have received impressions. 

### What is JaySearch? 

**JaySearch is the most accurate rank tracker that simplifies your SEO workflow.** It’s as easy to use as any familiar rank tracking tool, but with a key difference: JaySearch pulls position data directly from Google Search Console. This means there’s no need to compare the data to real-world results, as the data is already accurate and up-to-date.

**JaySearch saves you significant time when working with GSC data.**

###  🤔 So… what makes it different from other tools?

SEO professionals regularly cross-check their rank tracker data with Google Search Console. 

**Why?** 

That's because keywords they monitor in a rank tracker often don't match phrases people are actually searching for, nor do they reflect actual positions on Google. What they see in their rank tracker can differ significantly from what they see in GSC and live SERPs.

Some SEOs rely solely on Google Search Console, manually checking keyword positions through incognito mode in their browsers. 

Daily rank tracking with Google Search Console is such a hassle! You choose a page, go to Queries, choose a keyword, check positions, reset the keyword, choose another one, check positions, reset, and so on and so forth — keyword by keyword, page by page. Donkey work! JaySearch comes to the rescue in this aspect.

That’s where JaySearch makes a difference.

> We use Google Search Console data and make it easier for SEO pros to track keyword rankings. We've refined and optimized the data to give you more actionable insights.

With JaySearch, you can group and save keywords by page, receive daily updates on positions, and apply SEO filters for quicker and more effective data analysis.

As a result, JaySearch saves you valuable time and efforts that would otherwise be spent clicking through GSC or browsing SERPs in incognito mode.

**Here's how we turned the GSC data in JaySearch for SEO professionals.** 

You can see all the keywords your site ranks for, along with their daily positions for the past 30 days, right away. No more jumping between tabs or endless manual checks! 👇

{% hint style="info" %}
Unlike most rank trackers that show each keyword's position daily, JaySearch only displays the positions for keywords that have received impressions. This means that if a user searches for a keyword on Google within the specified region and your site appears, Google Search Console will provide the position value via API. If no impressions are recorded for that keyword, you’ll see a “–” in the position field.
