Should be able to filter out image results (or other rich snippets) from the rankings

complete

Joseph Robison

If my site is ranking #1 according to Ahrefs, but it's just an image from my site ranking, then I should be able to filter this out.
The option should be: "Hide image-only rankings".
If I rank for images and have a normal listing in the SERP, then it won't be filtered out. If I rank only for the image, then it should be filtered out.
As contributed by Olaf, the same should be possible with rich snippets. There should be the ability to show only traditional rankings if that's what we want to focus on.
Side note, the Ahrefs image ranking is false -   any of the images are shown as #1 in Ahrefs.
Thanks!

Image pack rankings aren't counted anymore:

Surprised this still isn't available 2 years later. Hope you guys can get this done soon.

Ability to see organic ranking without SERP features

Doug Cooper

Example: We rank #1 for "dining room" in the image pack.

If I remove SERP features, rank tracker doesn't show our #20 position in Google. It removes "dining room" completely.

I talked to support about this problem today actually. They told me you can filter out image and video rankings using the SERP Feature filters. I think this still isn't a great solution, but it looks like you can remove these types of results from your view for now at least.

Up. That's very annoying and for me makes the Rank Tracker useless. It happens the same when exporting the data.

Yes, it's a major problem. I need to pay another tool to check my positions with this image pack problem. Ahrefs is expensive and it is a major tool. I don't understand why Ahrefs doesn't fix that urgently.

AHREFS, FIX THIS. I have to manually Google positions for all the image pack rankings. You have any idea how bad this is? I've been a huge fan, but this seriously makes me think about switching to SEMrush.

UPDATE: I have now a basic subscription on SEMRush, just for the rank tracker. I'll keep both subscriptions for now, but if this doesn't change I'm changing to SEMrush for good. I've always loved the platform, but this is a major deal breaker.

Agreed! An analysis just became a whole lot more complicated due to this setup! You already have the functionality of excluding the SERP features in a different section. Why not add it to the rank tracker as well?

How come this is still not in the roadmap? Come on Ahrefs, this seriously is one of the most frustrating things. This makes the RankTracker quite useless.

October 2019 checking in. This is incredibly frustrating for me and my number 1 complaint about aHrefs. I've talked to support, reached out on Twitter and now see that it is well known. Yet nothing is done.

Please implement.
