Tracking keyword rankings with Semrush is a relatively straightforward process. Here are the steps you can follow:

  1. Login to your Semrush account and navigate to the "Position Tracking" tool.
  2. Create a new position tracking campaign by clicking the "+ New Campaign" button.
  3. Enter the domain or subdomain you want to track, select the search engine you want to track, and enter the keywords you want to track.
  4. Choose the location you want to track the keywords for, and select the device type (desktop or mobile).
  5. Choose how often you want the tool to check the rankings (daily, weekly, or monthly).
  6. Choose whether you want to track SERP features (such as featured snippets or knowledge panels).
  7. Click "Create Campaign."


Once your campaign is set up, you will be able to see your keyword rankings in the "Rankings" tab. You can also set up email alerts to notify you of any changes in your rankings, and you can use the tool to track your competitors' rankings as well.
