Tesco listing questions
Is there a tool to check Tesco Marketplace listings?
Yes. Paste your title, bullets and description into the checker above and it scores them out of 100 against Tesco's content rules: a 60 to 70 character title and 3 bullets of 50 characters or fewer for Marketplace. It's free and runs in your browser.
Does it read my listing from tesco.com?
No. Nothing is fetched from Tesco: you paste the copy you want checked, before or after it goes live.
Does it cover Tesco grocery?
Yes. Switch the channel to grocery and the checker applies those rules instead.
Can I see Tesco search volume?
Tesco doesn't publish search volume. Keyword Demand shows a UK demand index built from Google and Amazon UK volumes, scaled so the top keyword is 100.
Is it free?
The Listing Checker and Product Audit are free with no account. Keyword Demand and the Rank Tracker are on Pro, with a 7-day free trial.
