Highest Rank in Search Filter

Filter posts by the best search position they've reached, so you can prioritise the ones consumers are most likely to see.

Understanding the Highest Rank in Search filter

The posts consumers see first do the most damage. Highest Rank in Search is the best search position Zeal has ever recorded for a post across any of your tracked keywords, so you can prioritise the most visible, highest-risk posts.


1. How it works

Zeal looks at every keyword a post has matched and keeps its best (lowest) position.

  • High visibility: a post that ranks 1st for one keyword and 20th for another has a Highest Rank in Search of 1.

  • Low visibility: a post that ranks 83rd for one keyword and 120th for another has a Highest Rank in Search of 83.

Note: This measures search position, not how many keywords a post matches. The lower the number, the more visible the post.


2. How to use the filter

Use the from and to range selectors to focus on a level of visibility:
