Rankings donβt reveal your true SERP visibility β[Spotlight Sponsor: STAT Search Analytics]
Traditional rank tracking tells you what order results appear in on a SERP, but it doesnβt tell you if searchers are actually seeing you. Because todayβs SERPs are constantly shifting, pixel position tracking has become essential for revealing your true visibility.
To help you navigate the evolving search landscape, our friends at STAT Search Analytics have broken down what pixel position tracking is, why rank alone misses the full picture, and how you can use pixel data to sharpen your SEO strategy.
Check out their full blog post (and dive deeper into SERP visibility with their webinar linked within) to see how visible your site really is.
Share Your AI Search Insights π βHelp shape the 2026 SEOFOMO State of AI Search Optimization report.
β
The survey takes less than five minutes and will help build a clearer picture of the AI search trends and challenges facing our industry. Results will be published openly and for free at the end of August.
By taking part, you could also win an SEOFOMO hoodie, cup or access to tools including Semrush, Similarweb, Sitebulb, Screaming Frog and more.
π Survey closes: 27 August 2026β π Winner announced: 28 August 2026
