Market Samurai is a really great desktop (adobe air) tool to track rankings, research keywords, check out competition levels, etc. It's also the nicest adobe air application I've ever used, hands down.

My concern about desktop apps was that it could get issues with Google (eg: getting banned based on IP etc). Did anyone meet such an issue ?

Thanks otherwise for the comments on this product, I will give it a go!

You should check out my new app, Ginzametrics ( http://ginzametrics.com ). It has support for advanced users and agencies in addition to SERP tracking. It's still in private beta but I will be adding more invites over the next few weeks.

Just subscribed. Thank you.

you can use proxies with market samurai (admittedly, the way they handle proxies is awkward, but overall, you can avoid google issues completely with a handful of proxies)

There are a bunch out there. If you would like one to view SERP's instantly I find Rank checker (the SEO book firefox plugin) handy. If you would like the keyword service to monitor the progress over time the best oout there Authority Labs (It has some of the best export and filter features available). SEOMoz also has a handy keyword tool: Keyword Tracker. However, there are two things to keep in mind when using a SE…

Thanks for the great recommendation Romy. Things are gonna keep getting better.
