Reviews Analysis Reports Are One of the Most Exciting New Rank Tracker Features

Falcon Guard Protects Your Google Business Profile Against Unwanted "Suggested Edits"
As you may or may not know, Google allows anyone to suggest edits to any Google Business Profile listing.
While this is ostensibly to crowdsource information and improve the accuracy of listings, it can also be used by malicious competitors to try and manipulate your info in such a way as to hurt your rankings and drive more traffic to their business. That's why we built Falcon Guard.
Falcon Guard is Local Falcon's vigilant Google Business Profile change monitor, keeping a watchful eye on your GBP listing 24/7 and notifying you whenever an update gets made. That way, you can catch unwanted suggested edits and correct them before they have a chance to hurt your rankings.
Take a look at this article for tips on how to prevent unauthorized changes to your GBP.

You can now chat with Falcon Assist about any report from a local rank tracking scan, including Scan Reports, Trend Reports, Campaign Reports, and even Reviews Analysis Reports, to actionable insights into your local search performance and how to improve it.
Falcon AI Is Now Available for Trend Reports and Campaign Reports
Falcon AI, the AI-powered local rank tracker feature that started it all, is now available for Trend Reports and Campaign Reports, providing AI-generated analysis and optimization recommendations right within your reports.
