Semrush Position Tracking

Keyword Rankings

These are the practice's priority Malibu keywords in Semrush — every one holding in the top 3 as of August 2026. "Position" is where the website shows up in Google's results for that search — #1 is the very first result, and the closer a term sits to the top, the more of the clicks it earns (most people never scroll past the first few).
