keyword rankings for my website - where?

[Phil V]

I'm fairly sure that there are sites / tools where I can enter keywords and my website url and the tool will show my Google rankings for those searches - I'm experimenting with adwords atm and I obviously want to avoid buying adwords for phrases where I'm already quite successful.

Yesterday I typed in a specific phrase for my website to find I appeared on the first page - only to find I also had an ad at the top of the page.

I'd like somewhere I could track a load of keywords to help me tweak my site in the right direction, I've found the keyword tool in Google great for telling me about popular searches - I'd like to measure my rankings on the popular search terms without sitting and counting through loads of Google search results.

I use seomoz but there is a subscription fee, as I have several websites its ok but may not be worth it for just one. They do offer a free trial though.

Have you installed Google Analytics on your website?

I seem to remember that Google offered an analysis of keywords and a lot of other data using this.

If you use Firefox you can sign up to SEO4firefox then download their tools like rankchecker and that will tell you where or if you are on the list for your keyword phrases.

Thanks all
I'll look out for SEO4firefix.

I do use Google analytics, it tells me how many visits I get from what keyword searches, but not (as far as I can see) how I rate for those keywords - although I'm sure I've done this in the past, but even then I don't think it gave me my rankings on anything that hadn't been searched for - but I could be wrong.

Will analytics do it?
