    I've been working on a specific campaign for a couple of days, and been noticing that my keyword ranking is much different on my campaign than in reality. I tried my keyword on Google (with the same settings I have on my campaign) and my keyword ranks at #5 instead of not in 50, as indicated on my campaign. Can someone give me a hint on this issue ? Thank you !

    How often we need to replace our meta titles, meta descriptions and keywords so that we are able to find which one works and which does not. Can we make some schedule like on monthly or quarterly basis. What are the best practices in this regard?

    Hi Community, I am having a little difficulty with a new company I am working with that has multiple brick and mortar stores. They have 5 locations. 3 in Portland, OR, 1 in Los Angeles and 1 in Las Vegas. The is technically an e-commerce site but the employer wants to drive customers into local showrooms unless they live outside of local areas. They have every minimal traffic outside of local areas. At the moment the page title is "Company Name | Rugs Portland, Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Their PR is #1 in Google for Rugs Portland, Las Vegas and number #5 for Rugs Los Angeles. They are not in the top 50 for the term "rug". My question is, "Should I leave the title alone or break up each location into separate landing pages and tackle long-tail keywords that are not local and have more monthly searches?" Also, Domain Authority is 33. Thanks for the help,

    Usually, we will have a set of keywords of which we check rankings for a designated website... however, is there a tool that  is able to find all the keywords a website is currently ranking on the top page of Google for?

    URL: http://id.gamesinasia.com/review-smartphone-xiaomi-mi3/ Hi, So last week I wrote a review about a smartphone and after a couple days my post was at 6th (first page) in google search result. But yesterday it was suddenly disappeared from google search result (not even in 10++ page). Normally I just have to wrote title page + games in asia, like "review xiaomi mi3 games in asia"  and google will show me the post but now it wont even show. In fact two other site that simply scrap my content was showing on 1st and 2nd result! More info: All the content was original, including the image. We are also Yahoo (Indonesia) content partner so my review also ends up in yahoo site ( https://id.berita.yahoo.com/review-xiaomi-mi3-sebuah-angkatan-baru-dunia-smartphone-121537236.html) I'm not expecting a super high ranking, but google is punishing the page and I have no idea why. Thanks!

    One of my client's sells career assessment tests / personality tests. The site includes a shop with detailed product pages for the tests and also has lengthy informational pages describing the science behind the different tests, etc as they are pretty indepth and hard to understand for someone who is new to them. The site also includes a blog that has 500 or more posts, all career related... some of them referencing products. My concern is: We'd like the product or information pages to rank for SERPs. Some of the blog posts are ranking instead for their top target keywords. My question is: Is there an easy way to determine which pages on a site are competing for the same keyword? And what is the best way to correct this issue and ensure the correct page gets targeted? I was thinking adding a noindex to the pages would be the best way. Advice is greatly appreciated!

    Is there any way for me to figure out long tail key words related to keyword such as "IT solutions"? This is a competitive term.  How do I figure out related keywords with high search volume and less competition?

    Moz, I was just looking for any insights, advice, personal experiences in optimization for keywords that have Non Plural and Plural variants, Basically from my keyword and traffic research i have gathered the majority of the search traffic i am looking to gain is coming through the singular spelling of the keyword i am currently optimizing and updating our page for, From experience with this we have always ranked for the general non plural quantity page and brought traffic from both, My Example : Our lollipops page which has meta information targeted towards 'Lollipops' rather than the singular 'Lollipop' but links to Singular information pages that are targeting the singular word 'Lollipop' This way seemed to make sense as it wouldn't be good for user experience to have titles and headers on a page listing multiple products as a single instance, the content of the page would mostly reflect this targeting also, To make things worse the page language and content is in German where their seems to be many ways of saying the same word from my understanding, Am i doing the right thing in not sacrificing my user experience to target the singular version of the word ? Just some advice please? Apologies i struggled to get my question across well, Thanks James

    Hi, Say I am going after the keyword "example location". Is it better to have the Title say "Example Location" or can I say, "Example is the best in location" and still get the same keyword results? What about "Example location, location, location", would each "location" carry with it the "example". Hopefully that was not too confusing. Thanks,

    I am comparing Moz, WordTracker and Google keyword research tools and trying to figure out how I can compare the aggregated search volume for a page which targets several similar long-tail queries. For instance, according to one tool, the query 'printable guitar sheet music' has 125 monthly searches, but many small variations of this also have a similar amount. Do I just make a reasonable list and calculate them? Or do I just use "125" as an abstract number of measurement with no concrete reference to a **real **number of searchers, but useful in comparing one keyword to the next, and assume that all key words have a similar degree of consorting variations? I seem to remember Google used to give away some pretty damned useful information in the keyword search tool, including monthly search volume. But now it looks like the metric is not actual search volume, but a 1-100 score based on the search volume. So my questions are: Should I try to convert these numbers into real search figure estimates or just use them for comparing one to the next? Should I worry about trying to combine the aggregated variations of long tail keyword searches, or should I just choose one good keyword and let that represent all possible variations?

    Hi! I've quite a number of synonyms and common related keywords and i know that it needs to be only at one page instead of many different pages. The keywords are: delivery service singapore, delivery service, singapore delivery service and delivery service in singapore. Do i need to have an exact variations of each in the content of the page so that google will know i want to target for these keywords. Because i'm trying to make my page to receive an A grade for all these keywords in a page? Do i need to split the keywords into 2 different page to achieve that goal? Thanks!

    Hello, I work for an Theater news site. We've drafted an interview piece where three actors (Lin-Manuel Miranda, Leslie Odom, Jr, and Karen Olivo) discuss their participation in an upcoming show (tick, tick... BOOM), which is an autobiographical precursor to Jonathan Larson's hit Broadway musical, Rent. The show is playing for five days in the New York City Center's 'Encores' musical theater series event. In the interview, the actors widely discuss Mr. Larson's impact on the theater community, who passed away suddenly in 2001. As you might imagine, the most popular keywords on Google trends are of Mr. Larson, the show name, and Lin-Manuel Miranda, a tony-winning composer. We're considering slugs that represent several permutations of the above actor + show combinations (below), but we're struggling trying to balance a slug that appropriately explains the article, uses appropriate keywords, and limit them (to a count of 5, per google's recommendation). Any suggestions? miranda-olivo-odom-inside-tick-tick-boomlin-manuel-olivo-odom-inside-tick-tick-boomtick-tick-boom-encores-interviewjonathan-larson-tick-tick-boom-at-encores

    I have many years old website selling a service. The main keyword is 47% competitive, and we used to be #1 page 2, occasionally page 1 couple years back. Domain authority is double of any of the competitors on 1st page, followed root domain links is many times that of 1st page competitors, infact against some of them almost 10 times as much, MozRank and MozTrust higher too. Infact, every metric is higher than competition. Only metric which isn't as good is Followed vs NoFollowed links metric, 95% of our links are NoFollowed, but we are still #1 in external followed links. Yet we are stuck on 4th page, and on some localizations we are not even in Top 50. This has happened slowly over time, not a overnight thing. Page we are trying to rank for gets grade A for optimizations, yet we have less significant pages ranking higher for that keyword. Further, newer pages tend to rank better than old ones. The whole site actually ranks quite low and we are not even getting search traffic for long tail keywords.
    No problems reported on GWT, Analytics etc. Is this a google penalization or something of the sort? How can i troubleshoot this and get past this?

    I'm curious about how others evaluate the competition of keywords when putting together an SEO program: Do you place any faith in the competition listing in the Google Keyword Tool? Do you find value in SEOmoz's Keyword Difficulty tool? What other tactics or processes do you perform?

    Hello, My name is Mitchell and I'm new to the MOZ community and to the SEO field. I just recently launched an e-commerce website that sells refurbished laptops and computers and I have been researching ways to bring traffic and sales to our website. I understand that the first step to building an effective SEO campaign is to determine effective keywords to build from: targeted traffic + good volume.I've used several online tools to find relevant keywords and it appears that most of the relevant keywords are already Highly competitive and the first 2 Google pages are usually taken over by big name brands.I understand that I need to find low competition long tail keywords and start my way up from there.Assuming that I find 5-10 long tail keywords with low competition and decent search volume, here are my questions:- Should I test these long tail keywords with Google Adwords to find out if they convert well BEFORE I optimize my website for them?- Since I will be having several different long tail keywords, do I need to have a separate webpage on my site for each? (I believe that it's suggested to have one page per keyword, maximum 2)- If yes, does that mean that each long tail keyword needs to have it's own back links to bring in traffic?- Should I optimize my homepage for a long tail keyword as well? or should I optimize it for the more broader keywords and create sub-pages for the long tail keywords?-  One of my site's main products is a very popular item and has high competition and search volume. Would it make sense to purchase a domain name that spells out the item (ej. HP-Pavillion-DV6.com) and publish reviews, specs and information about the item there (using a blogging service like Tumbler or Wordpress)? Or redirect the domain name to a page on my site with that information? Or just create a page on my site with that information and create back-links to it? Thanks in advance for your taking the time to respond and for your invaluable feedback. Respectfully, Mitchell.

    Hi guys another newbie question. I have this 20 categories and i want each of it to have a dynamic meta to save time rather than doing it manually. All the 20 categories are name of countries. Target keyword: rent a car (category) Lets say im browsing malaysia category. Meta Title: Find affordable rent a car in malaysia Meta Description: Find affordable rent a car in malaysia only here at website.com, call and book for a car now! Meta Keywords: rent a car in malaysia, malaysia rent a car, affordable rent a car malaysia, cheap cars in malaysia Now i move to another category lets say hongkong, the meta should change dynamically by changing just the name of the category Meta Title: Find affordable rent a car in hongkong Meta Description: Find affordable rent a car in hongkong only here at website.com, call and book for a car now! Meta Description: rent a car in hongkong, hongkong rent a car, affordable rent a car hongkong, cheap cars in hongkong and this goes to all other categories as well. Will it hurt my seo? i mean it could be a form of duplicate content or whatever. Also please correct me of doing my meta, if its correct especially in meta keywords i dont want keyword stuffing as a problem why im not ranking. Thanks a lot guys. Im still in the process of learning the basics 😄

    When I try to use the on page grader and enter my URL, an error message appears stating: "Sorry But This Page Inaccessible". The URL is http://www.nyc-officespace-leader.com/commercial-space/office-space and it works fine when I enter it on my browser. Any page from this domain generates this error. Is there a bug with this tool? How would I go about tracking ranking on various keywords? I see it is possible to tag keywords, and I have done so for about 250. But I don't know how to generate a ranking report for these keywords; ideally I would like to do so filtering them by the label I have applied. Any suggestions? Thanks,
    Alan

    Hi, what is the technique for ranking for keywords? Can you optimise a web page for more than one keyword? My moz report is telling me that a keyword I want to rank for is not in the page title, as it stands my page title has one keyword phrase. Sorry for such a newbie question, my understanding is you home page carries the most weight, so you would place your most wanted keywords there? The big question is, how many keywords per page? David.

    I am relatively new to the world of SEO and have been given responsibility to improve SEO rankings for our company website (which is full of jobs). We are London based digital media recruiters and work in a number of niche industries. Should job titles be the keywords I try and optimise, as opposed to keywords such as 'digital media recruitment london', 'London digital marketing jobs', 'digital media recruiters in london' etc? Today I have signed up for a month's trial on Moz Pro so am hoping this will provide me with a lot of help as I start creating an SEO strategy, Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi there, we're trying to determine how to best write headlines to make our articles more findable. We're a Theater content and ticketing site (theatermania.com) and we're about to publish an article describing outdoor Shakespeare in New York City. We've discussed a few headline options (we automatically use the headline as the page title, although we aren't married to this) below. Are any of these much more findable than the other? For example, are we shooting ourselves in the foot if we lead with "Fill your Summer...." in the first option? Fill Your Summer in the City With Free Outdoor Shakespeare Summer in the City With Free Outdoor Shakespeare Free Outdoor Shakespeare This Summer in the City

    Hey guys, Long time follower of the Q&A forum, but don't post too often.  I'm having an issue I never came across.  We changed a domain from mpbuilderscincy.com to mpcincinnati.com.  We did the 301 redirect and all the SEO flowed through pretty well.  Most pages didn't even change in file structure so we didn't need to do page redirects for the most part.  Anyway, long story short, we are seeing the same rankings as we had before now (it's been about 2 months) except for 1 and only 1 keyword.  It's "Home Remodeling Cincinnati".  We dropped from page 2, to page 11 on Google and it won't budge.  Now on Yahoo and Bing, we are right back where we were before already with that keyword.  But Google just refuses to bump us back to where we were before the change.  The Home Remodeling page: http://www.mpcincinnati.com/Residential-Services/Home-Remodeling.aspx has an on page grade of A for that keyword and we have it as one of our main keywords on the home page of the site (title, h1, alt tags, etc).  No errors on the page.  I mean it looks pretty clean for this page as far as SEO except for 1 notice that mentions the 301 canonical redirect. We uploaded the new sitemap right away.  I just can't put a thumb on it and wondering if you guys had any tips. Thanks, Chris

    I am new to SEO and absolutely fascinated by the whole process.... this is fun! I am a newish photographer, and I am bringing together my blog with my static page to one URL, and am going to be using wordpress. My goals are a little different than typical.  What I am looking for in my web site is not sales, but viewership.  I want people to find my site, then keep coming back to my blog to follow what I do. Hopefully I get lots of people put my feed in their reader, or sign on to my email list. In looking at keywords, I found the below info from google as far as global monthy searches: photography blog 110,000
    photo blog 823,000 black and white photographers 135,000
    black and white photography 110,000 fine art photographers 60,500
    fine art photography 49,500 abstract photographer 14,800
    abstract photography 14,800 erotic photographer 60,500
    erotic photography  3,600 editorial photographer 12,100
    editorial photography 6,600 Questions: Photo blog is where the big numbers are, and this is eventually what I would like to be known for ... but the competition here is much stiffer than that for lets say 'fine art photographer'.  The top listing in photo blog has a domain authority of 78 as opposed to 47 for fine art photographer.  Given the importance of being high in the rankings, would it be better to try to dominate some of the long tail first?  But if I do, is it then hard to switch to photo blog and come up high because I have all the link and keyword 'baggage' on my domain from the old attempts at optimizing for 'fine art photographer'? 2)  How would people suggest handling photographer and photography, in terms of keywords, and using the terms in directories, etc?  Pick one or use both? 3)  Is this too many keywords to focus on at first?  General thoughts to approach? Thanks! Brent

    Hey moz fans,
    I have a site and when I run through with site seo audit tool, they always give me a error that none of your page has canonical tag.
    So my question do I need canonical tag ? 
    I'm asking because I think I don't have any duplicate web pages.
    Even though I dont have duplicate pages, is it still necessary to have canonical tag in the original pages? 
    And also I want to know how do you guyz know , whether your site has duplicate pages?
    Thank you.

    Hello all I realize this data is probably impossible to get but thought I would take a chance and ask. Anyone know of a way to see ranking for a URL for a keyword before being setup in Rank Tracker? Would love to see how a URL moved up and down over time prior to tracking. I know its a long shot but if anyone knows its the Moz community! Have a great day people.

    Hello Everyone,.. I want to ask regarding my confusion of Keywords. How does search engine see the keywords? and find the website that is matched with the keywords. So this is what I mean: When I type keywords "luxury dog clothes" at google, then the website which is showed up, is nothing using keyword of "luxury dog clothes". But then appeared websites which in bold words are "designer dog clothes", "dog clothes", "designer dog" . Can anyone please help me to explain why Google shows the website which is not identical matched keywords "luxury dog clothes" that I am looking for? I read at the beginer guide SEO, that the good keywords must be placed at the front of the title then in the body description, placed no more than 2 times. But in fact, for the example above, there is nothing words of "luxury dog clothes" placed at the title and in the body description. This makes me very confuse how to determine the right keyword for mine, especially the long tail keywords. Thank you everyone. Hopefully you all can help me to explain as I am a newbie at SEO.

    Hello to all, I wanted to ask if I am doing this correctly. So I own a Bernese mountain dog website I used the google keyword research tools to view keyword ideas. I listed my results below. So my questions are: 1 - Bernese Mountain Dog Puppies (the keyword) blow away the other keywords. So when you are looking at your sites most popular keywords, do you make the most popular keyword your homepage? Because it gets the most link juice? Like would you build the homepage around the best keyword instead of branding - like the company name etc? Or does it matter? Basically just as long as you use it for one page? 2 - When you have keywords that have parts of other keywords, is it safe to use the longer keyword because it has parts of the other phrases? Such as Bernese mountain dog puppies for sale is a part of Bernese mountain dog puppies for sale in Colorado. So if you use bernese mountain dog puppies for sale in Colorado, it will also hit the bernese mountain dog puppies for sale? ( without the In Colorado) What type of strategy would you use for this type of situation? 3- Lastly, and thank you for your time - I watched a video from a grey hat seo guy. He said to take a keyword or phrase like say Colorado home builders, create a page like example.com/Colorado-home-builders/ Then make you h1 tag - The Best Colorado Home Builders Add The Best Colorado home builders to your meta description and one more time in your h2 tag Then create a Bold, and italic The Best Colorado Home Builders in your unique content paragraphs. So my question is - is this grey hat and bad? Or the standard? I do not want to get hit for over optimizing. So just wanted to ask you opinion first. In the end, I truly thank you for taking the time to read my questions. I appreciate everyone's help and greatly appreciate your knowledge. So my results look like this | bernese mountain dog puppies | 590 | Low | $0.45 | 1% | |
    | bernese mountain dog puppies for sale | 90 | High | $0.42 | 9% | |
    | bernese mountain dogs | 90 | Low | $0.37 | 0% | |
    | bernese mountain dog puppies for sale in colorado | 30 | Medium | $0.76 | 0% | |
    | bernese mountain dog breeders in colorado | 20 | Medium | $0.32 | 0% | |
    | bernese mountain dogs colorado | 40 | Low | $0.08 | 0% | |
    | bernese mountain dog puppy breeders | 10 |

    Hi Should I be looking to keyword every blog post I write? Obviously the point in a blog for most of us is to draw in traffic so should I keyword research every blog post and use that as keyword? What if there is no keyword stats for the blog im writing? I guess I just use a keyword I make up anyway and hope people type it? Thanks Chris

    Hi Guys! I have approx. 50 keywords that I'm tracking for a website that has about 80 pages. I am wondering is there any way that I can find out which page on the site is currently ranking best for each of the keywords on my list? Ideally I would like to export the entire list with the keyword in the first column and the page that ranks best on the website for each given keyword, in the second column. Apologies if the wording of this post is confusing - I am not quite sure how to make it clearer. The aim of my task is to determine which keywords should be allocated to each page on the site so I need to work out which keywords are working already for certain pages so that I don't take those efforts away from the well-optimised pages. Many thanks! Meaghan

    My Manhattan based commercial real estate firm hired an SEO firm. The company conducted a content audit, created a keyword matrix and suggested optimizing 51 pages for specific keywords. A specific price per page was quoted, which I understand and accept. I was under thought that setting up internal text links to redistribute page rank and thereby improve ranking for competitive terms was included in the price. But this task was not included in their quote. I really want to avoid getting nickeled and dimed to death. Should this cost be included, or legitimately is setting up the internal link structure something that is an additional expense? If this task is legitimately an extra, how labor intensive is it? A lit bit of extra time when re-writing pages or a completely different task that would be quite time consuming? Also, I believe the flow of page rank within a site can have a big effect on ranking, so setting up internal links is critical. Are these assumptions correct? For some background, www.nyc-officespace-leader.com gets 4,500 organic visits per month. Google Page Rank is 2 and the site was hit by Panda in 2012 but has partially recovered. I would really appreciate some insight from the MOZ community. I do not want to pay too much or too little for these services. THANKS, Alan

    Hey guyz, I've used the adwords for the my organic seo keyword research. As you guyz do And I noticed that I don't really know to what does language targeting do ?
    I mean what is the function of it . 
    I know that when we change the language targeting I mean setting it English from global doesn't change the volume of the search data .
    So why is there ?

    Hey guyz,
    As you guyz do, I base  all my seo effort into the keywords' traffic and quality which I can get from Adwords Keywords Planner.
    But this post has confused my mind .
    It' says the average searches doesn't exactly the average searches.
    And everything is okay here now I can say that of course it's not %100 accurate.
    But the shocking part is he gives an example of how a big gap there is between real searches number and adwords keywords planner tools give us . What do you think guyz?
    Can it be true ?
    (And also last time I asked a question, Randy has replied me, If possible please Randy do it again :D.)
    Best wishes.

    I'm wondering why my website www.travelnasia.com home page URL does not rank in the top 50 for the brand keyword "travelnasia". Does this indicate a problem? A page linking to my site ranks at No 1. A domain listing for my site ranks No 2. A SiteJabber review of my site ranks No 3. My own privacy page ranks #4 and my Contact Us page ranks No 5. My home page is nowhere to be seen in the top 50. It does rank #1 for the qualified domain "travelnasia.com", just not for the unqualified domain. I just don't know what to make of that. My competitors all seem to rank #1 for their brands, so I'm not sure why I don't at least rank in the top 50 for mine.

    My issue is this.  I'm getting a lot of "F" grades for certain keywords to my homepage using MOZ.  the thing is I can't add to many keywords to title tag without going over 65 characters.  It seems the title tag is most important and even though i have keywords in content and everything else, without title tag keyword its useless.  can creating more than one title tag help or will that make things worse with search engines?

    it looks like MOZ is showing one I have an Overly Dynamic Url.  I use Volusion.  The url is http://www.bestfitbybrazil.com/NEW-ARRIVALS-s/1931.htm?searching=Y&sort=4&cat=1931&show=300&page=1 How do i get rid of this?  Its not even a page.  its a query.  the page part is as follows http://www.bestfitbybrazil.com/NEW-ARRIVALS-s/1931.htm. Everything after is some kind of query.  Do I need to enter the entire link as a dissallow in robot text or contact volusion?  Not sure how much help they would be since MOZ is showing this

    I did some keyword research for our company.  Some of the terms we got 100,000 search volume for in 2011 now have only 90 monthly searches.  I am doing exact match for both US and Global and neither are any where near those high of numbers.  Now I can't say how the old report on this was done but we are all a little skeptical of these numbers.  Is there any other tool out there for search volume on Google?  The Moz tool while it lists Google as an option only does Bing.  Thank you!

    Hi to all, So as I am working towards the best possible site that I can build, what is the best tool or method to find keywords that people would search for that may line up with my website? I have starting using google keyword research tool, or at least I think that is what its called. Also I am using moz, but it shows bing result for traffic. So I guess backing up, do you usually find the keywords with the largest traffic estimates, and then work those words into your web pages? I know to build for people first, then search engines etc. But just curious what you do or use to get an idea on what keywords are popular. Thank You

    Hi, I have some keywords (2-5 words) which I would like to rank for (and use them for AdWords campaigns). Also, I have some great and helpful content for those user queries to share. Now what is the better strategy?: Create a blog post for AdWords and later SEO rankings? Create a landing page for AdWords and later SEO rankings? Would love to here your thoughts and experiences on this issue... Best, Robin

    Since google closed the Adwords keywoord tool I have been unable to find a source that compares with the long list of various keyword uses and the relative number of searches for each. Had printed out the ones I needed and threw them away!! Is there a comparable source available

    Hi everybody, I've been working on the subdomain http://fr.mt.com since a few month and on the last crawl on the keyword "accessoire de mesure" i had a big drop from rank 3 to not in top 50 and I cant figure why. Here is the page : http://fr.mt.com/fr/fr/home/products/Laboratory_Analytics_Browse/Meter_family_page/Meter_Accessor.html - PA : 30 DA : 71 I did an on page report to get a grade and i got... A on this keyword. I know this page is not perfect (lack of content) but in my opinion it still relevant on this keyword. Do you have any idea of what happened ? Thanks in advance for your answers
