Visibility Rating tab overview
The Visibility Rating graph displays how visible each competitor is in organic search results over time, based on the keywords tracked in your project.
Each line on the graph represents a domain, with daily visibility scores plotted to show trends across the selected timeframe (week, 2 weeks, or month).
A higher score means a domain appears more frequently in top-ranking positions. By analyzing these trends, you can compare visibility progress, detect ranking spikes, and evaluate your competitive standing in search.
Key metrics per domain
- ●Visibility score
- ●% in Top 10
- ●Traffic Forecast
- ●Keywords count
- ●Backlinks and Referring Domains

How Visibility Rating is calculated
SE Ranking checks every keyword in your project and assigns a score based on how often a domain appears in the top results. The data is updated every time rankings are refreshed and stored for 30 days.
Visibility formula:
S = F × A
Where:
S = visibility score
F = search volume of a keyword
A = adjustment factor based on ranking position
The adjustment factor decreases as the ranking drops:
Example:
Suppose a domain ranks 4th for a keyword with 1,000 monthly searches.
S = 1,000 × 0.85 = 850
If it also ranks 8th for another keyword with 500 searches:
S = 500 × 0.30 = 150
The total visibility score will be the sum of all such keyword scores.
