SeoMap

SeoMap is a tracking and visualization tool for Google Maps local rankings. Its core logic is: a ranking is not a single number, but a map—the same business may rank first two hundred meters from the store, yet be completely invisible three kilometers away. SeoMap lays a GPS grid over the service area, performs real Google Maps searches at each grid point, and marks the results with colors: green represents a high ranking, red represents being covered by competitors.

Main capabilities

1. Geographic grid heatmap: grid size is freely configurable, from 5×5 to 21×21 (paid plans support above 15×15), with optional square or circle and customizable spacing. Each point is a real Maps search, supporting desktop or mobile.

2. Real-time progress: during the scan, the map fills in point by point in real time, and 169 measurement points can be completed within three minutes.

3. Point details: click any grid point to view the complete Top 20 results for that coordinate, including ratings, review counts, and ad labels.

4. Competitor analysis: count the businesses that enter the top 3 at each measurement point, rank them by the number of top 3 entries, and identify the dominant players in the area.

5. Scan comparison: display two scans side by side, with each grid point showing improvements, declines, additions, or losses, and automatically warn when configurations are not comparable.

6. Public share links: share any heatmap as a link, no login required, without exposing internal data, suitable for client reports and outreach emails.

7. Report export: generate a printable report in one click, including the heatmap, metrics, and competitor table.

8. Search Console import: connect GSC in one click, automatically create a project, and prefill the top queries from the last 90 days as keywords.

9. Exact matching: identify the target business via Google CID/Place-ID to avoid confusion with businesses of the same name.

10. Cost control: display a cost estimate before each scan, and set a daily hard limit.

11. Ranking history: display ARP, ATRP, and SoLV as line charts across all scans for a project and keyword, forming a true historical record, and click to trace back to the underlying scan.

12. Scheduled scans: projects and keywords can be set to scan automatically weekly or monthly, using the same mechanism as manual scans, including credit checks, without the need for manual restarts.

13. Public REST API: supports self-managed API keys to read projects, scans, and grid points, and can be integrated with Zapier, n8n, or a generic HTTP module. Used together with Make.

Metric descriptions

• ARP: The average ranking across all positions actually found.
• ATRP: The average ranking including "not found" cases; the tool description says this is the honest number that other tools often hide.
• SoLV: The share of grid points whose ranking reaches the top 3.

How to use

From business to heatmap in three steps, officially said to be completed within three minutes:

1. Connect the business: search the Google Maps business list and select, match precisely by CID/Place-ID, or import directly from Search Console.
2. Start the scan: select keywords, set the grid size, check the cost, then start; the map fills in point by point in real time, and 169 measurement points are completed within three minutes.
3. Persuade the client: export the heatmap as a printable report, share it via link (no login required), or compare it with later scans as before-and-after proof of work results.

Use cases

• Agencies and freelancers: need a persuasive image rather than a table no one reads; a red heatmap closes deals better than ten reports.
• Sales teams: use it as an opener in the first meeting: "Look - this is where you are losing customers."
• Local businesses: discover why they rank "No. 2" yet get no inquiries, because "No. 2" only holds true at the desk.

Pricing and credits

A measurement point is one simulated Google Maps search at a GPS coordinate. Queue scanning consumes 1 credit per point (5x5=25, 7x7=49, 13x13=169); real-time scanning consumes 3 credits per point, with results returned within minutes rather than overnight. Officially, there are no packages and no hidden surcharges.

• Starter: For freelancers and a single business, 3,000 credits/month (about 17 large 13x13 queue scans), including heatmaps, queue and real-time scanning, metrics, point details, competitor analysis, share links and report export, Google Search Console import, and email support. Annual payment 288 euros (net price).
• Pro: For agencies and advanced users, 12,000 credits/month (about 70 large scans), unlimited projects, including all Starter features, plus scan comparison, unlimited scan history, and priority support. Annual payment 792 euros (net price).
• Agency: For multi-client agencies and sales teams, 40,000 credits/month (about 235 large scans), including all Pro features, plus white-label reports (company name andlogo), bulk scanning (CSV import, overnight launch, progress and merged export), pre-launch Google Business matching check, and dedicated support. Annual payment 1,992 euros (net price).

Credit allowances reset at the start of each billing cycle each month, and unused credits do not roll over. Additional credit packs can be purchased: 2,500 credits for 25 euros, 10,000 credits for 79 euros, 30,000 credits for 199 euros.

Lifetime license: For early adopters, limited to 100 licenses, including all Pro features and lifetime updates, but not including credits; you must bring your own DataForSEO key (BYOK) and pay for search costs at cost (about 0.06 cents per point in queue mode, about 0.2 cents in real time; a 13x13 scan costs about 10 or 34 cents), with full cost control through your own DataForSEO account, including a built-in daily cap.
