Overview
A Chrome extension for monitoring specific search queries and tracking SERP (Search Engine Results Page) positions over time. Built as an alternative to expensive rank tracking tools.
Features
- Track unlimited keywords across Google
- Daily position snapshots
- Position change alerts (up/down notifications)
- Competitor URL monitoring
- Export data to CSV for analysis
Why Not Use Paid Tools?
Professional rank trackers cost $50-200/month. For a small e-commerce site tracking 20-30 keywords, that’s overkill. Query Watcher does exactly what I need, for free, running locally in my browser.
Tech Stack
Chrome Manifest V3, IndexedDB for local storage, Background Service Workers for scheduled checks, Chart.js for position graphs.
