Help & FAQ

Every question has its own link, so you can send someone straight to the answer.

I don't see any numbers. What do I do?#

Reload the tab, check that the popup switch is on, and make sure you are on a results page. The icon shows a red “!” when the extension cannot find any results.

I use Opera and it doesn't work#

Opera blocks extensions on search results pages by default. The extension warns you when this is what's happening.

  1. Open opera://extensions
  2. Go to Details on SERP Position
  3. Scroll to the bottom of the site list
  4. Turn on “Allow access to search page results”
  5. Reload the tab
Why doesn't page 2 start at #11?#

Because the numbering continues where the previous page ended. If page 1 had seven organic results, page 2 starts at #8. If you land directly on page 2, ten results per page are assumed until you visit page 1.

What is the “visual position”?#

The position counting the ads and Google's own blocks that sit above the result. It is what a person actually scrolls past. Turn it on in Options → SERP analysis.

Does it work on Google Shopping?#

No. Product cards have no links, so there is no URL or domain to work with.

In Google Images, why can #8 end up below #1?#

The numbers follow Google's relevance order, and the grid places the thumbnails in columns.

What is “Show 20/50/100”?#

An experimental feature, off by default. It loads the next pages of results into the page you are on, one at a time and with pauses. If Google asks for a check, it stops and offers a Retry button with a wait. It never works around Google's protections.

What data does it collect?#
How do I highlight my site or a competitor's? And how do I hide a domain?#

Options → Domains for the domains you want highlighted, in the colour you want. Options → Tools for the ones you want hidden.

Is there a keyboard shortcut?#

Alt+Shift+J jumps to the first result from your highlighted domains.
