Custom Filters

Advanced Web Ranking comes with many default filters that cover most of the changes that can occur in the search engine rankings. However, there comes a time when the default filters are just not enough.

The custom filters feature allows you to create your own filter, made of a combination of existing (default filters) and user created conditions that involve the current position, the previous position, the best position, the page, the page rank, or any other entity that may be affected by a change.

You can use a custom filter just like any existing filter in the report generation process. It will allow you to refine the output data and give you only the results you are interested in.

To create or manage filters use the [Filters] drop down list at the top of the Rankings view. Once created, a custom filter will appear in all filter drop down within the application, with a special icon to indicate that it is a custom filter.

You can also create or manage application filters from the [Settings] menu > [Printable and interactive reports] > [Filter Manager]
