Rapid Tracking workspaces provide bi-hourly tracking of Search Terms. Within these workspaces, your terms are contained in Campaigns.

  • Rapid Tracking includes 12 tracked data points per 24 hour period.

  • The first data point is available 2 - 4 hours post-campaign setup.

  • Rapid Tracking updates every two hours.

  • You can include up to 25 search terms per campaign.

  • You can have up to 50 queries per campaign (or 25 terms in two search engines).

  • Rapid Tracking tracks Google search engines only.

  • Rapid Tracking campaigns track for a maximum of 30 days and a minimum of 24 hours, although end dates can be extended.
