Gloo Local runs these from multiple points around the location. The resulting grid shows where the business reaches the top three, remains visible but vulnerable, falls below the first page, or disappears.

What the competitor view should answer

Which businesses appear most often across the grid?

Which competitor wins each service, product or category search?

Where does ranking decline as the searcher moves away?
