How do I check how a competitor ranks in the UK vs. US?

[jclubb]

In building my strategy I want to check how well my competitors rank in country specific searches, for example in Canada or the UK vs. the US.

Can someone help me by pointing me in the right direction?

Thanks

For Google, you can simply navigate to Google.ca and type in a search query to see your competitors rankings.

SEOmoz offers Rank Tracker which allows you to specify a country and search engine.

Try Google's "Ad Preview tool".  Search for::Google "Ad preview too" ::: - it should be the 1st listing in Google

In that, enter the keyword phrase, select the country, and  you are good to go!

You can also try copy pasting this URL in new browser:

Jeremy,

The reply I offered is based on the belief you know your competitor's names and want to perform research on specific companies.

If you want to perform research on keywords then disregard my suggestion and go with Syed's.
