Why is comunicatedepresa.net ranking better than comunicatedepresa.ro for the term "comunicate de presa"
Absolutely ALL the factors (links, domains linking, authority, onpage etc) seem to say that comunicatedepresa.ro should have ranked better.
-
no, it's very important, i just thought that you had a tool to mesure link juice to a page (other than pr or authority).
Thanks for the answer
-
My statement was "the .ro site has 306 links on the result page vs 130 links on the .net site. At this quick glance, it appears the .net site does a much better job of managing it's internal link juice".
The site is in Romanian and I can't read the language. I brought up the topic as it is an area which I would suggest investigating. If you feel the matter is not important, feel free to disregard that advice.
-
I understand what you are saying but, why did you assume that the ammount of link juice that goes on the .net homepage is greater than the amount of linkjuice on .ro homepage? (did you have a tool for that or is it just an assumption?).
i know that page rank is just a raw indicator but the .ro page has pr 7 and the .net page has pr 3
thanx for the reply btw.

I brought up the number of internal links on a page to share an example of an area I noticed where the .net site was better optimized from a SEO perspective.
I agree with you the .ro site has higher DA.
If we have more links than them to the page how cand we have less internal link juice?
You control the flow of link juice throughout your site. Ideally you want to direct the flow of link juice to your more important pages. This direction happens by choosing which pages to link to and where the links appear. I was only on your site for about 2 minutes, but in that time it seemed as if you were trying to link to too many pages rather then selectively linking to the more important pages. If you perform some analytics on your site, it is highly likely you will mind a majority of those 300+ links are simply not used. I would recommend you remove any unused links to better manage your internal link value.

If we have more links than them to the page how cand we have less internal link juice? (by linking to other pages the the wan in cause and splitting the page rank?...this does not explain the diference since the domain authoriy of the .ro page is higher)

A brief analysis of the two sites results in Google.ro for the term "comunicate de presa" shows:
-
both sites benefit equally from an exact match domain
-
both sites titles are identically formatted with the search term first followed by four additional terms
-
the .ro result has superior pa/da of 59/52 vs the .net site 38/35 showing in favor of the .ro site
-
the .ro site has 306 links on the result page vs 130 links on the .net site. At this quick glance, it appears the .net site does a much better job of managing it's internal link juice
-
the .ro site used header and alt tags appropriately to provide support of the key phrase, whereas the .net site did not
I can't read Romanian so I was unable to check for cannibalization or other issues.
Based on the visible factors, I agree the .ro site appears stronger. There are many factors which Google has visibility to which we do not. A few examples are:
1. What are the site's metrics such as bounce rate?
2. The quality of the links. PA/DA are based on "pure" analysis of the linking page's value and number of links on a page. Google makes adjustments for where links appear (i.e. footer vs in content), various penalties which may affect linking sites, etc. Google may also offer more weight to links from specific sources.
3. Other signals. There are tons of ways Google can read signals to help determine a site's legitimacy. Business records related to the site (trademarks, licenses, etc), physical address listings, Google Places listing, etc. Google may be valuing unknown sources of information and adjusting ranking accordingly.
I know this situation is frustrating and I have seen it before. My first suggestion would be to adjust what you can control, your internal linking. Next, examine your competitor's back links to see what links they have earned and you do not have.

My home page has an "A" rank in Moz and not ranking in Google.
My home page recently dropped from page one in Google to not being ranked for my top keyword. The page has an "A" ranking in MOZ for the keyword. Is there a way to find out the cause. I did have what looked like a duplicate page for a while 3 months ago when a domain was forwarding to my home page incorrectly. Appeared with second domain name instead of primary. Our business has been 95% through internet leads so quite an issue. Is there anyway to find out what is going on.

Find Historical SERP Ranking for a Term?
Is there any way to find out what pages ranked for a given term historically? I.e. what were the top 10 search results for "Widgets" 6 months ago, 1 year ago, 2 years ago? If I had a campaign tracking that term, I'd be able to look back, but I do not. Does this data exist anywhere in a format that could be queried?

Why do the Ranking Report emails differ from the acutal Ranking Report?
I have been noticing that the Rankings listed in the emails are far different from the ones in my report once I log in. Any idea what this is about? Often the rankings in the email are much better then in the report. And I am talking about on the same day as the email was sent out, not a week later.

Seomoz suggetions implemented but keyword rankings dropping.
We have been with SEOMOZ for just a couple of weeks now. We impemented all the recommendations made in page analysis and crawl errors but since making changes we have started to fall in ranking for these keywords. Should we undo all his work or sit it out. Why would our rankings fall if these changes are for the better ? Thanks

Fishy Rank 1\. Google Algorithm Bug?
We have noticed some strange rankings for a while that do not make any type of logical sense from an SEO standpoint. After an SEO review, it is found that these sites rank for top terms in very competitive markets for no clear reason. To demonstrate, here is research for one of the categories where this is taking place. Google for "Phoenix Computer Repair" Rank #1: www.datafast.net/phoenix-computer-repair.html Rank #2: www.mobiletechsupport.com Rank #4: www.mypctechs.com Linkscape Visualization and Comparison Report The first thing we run is a linkscape visualization and comparison report. Compare site #1 to #4 or site #2 to #4. In all instances, site #1 and site #2 are completely dominated by site #4. Visualizer stats, with higher ranking site #1 on the left. Lower ranking site #4 on right: | Overall Score | 29% | 53% |

| External Links | 10 0% | 17461 60% | ********Linkscape Report Next, running a linkscape report to evaluate inbound links for site #1 shows a collection of cheap profile spam links. There actually appear to be no high quality inbound links: ****http://fastw3b.net/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=3432;sa=summary TARGET: www.datafast.net/phoenix-computer-repair.html TITLE: View the profile of Phoenix12****Anchor Text: Computer Repair Phoenix URL Metrics mozRank: 0.00 mozTrust: 0.00 Passing: 1.59 domain Metrics (fastw3b.net) mozRank: 5.19 mozTrust: 5.05 http://djdriblemouth.com/Simple Machines Forum 1.1.11 blog/index.php?action=profile;u=1897;sa=summary TARGET: www.datafast.net/phoenix-computer-repair.html TITLE: View the profile of Phoenix59****Anchor Text: Computer Repair Phoenix URL Metrics mozRank: 0.00 mozTrust: 0.00 Passing: 1.56 domain Metrics (djdriblemouth.com) mozRank: 2.38 mozTrust: 2.59 http://www.bettingfc.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=1990;sa=summary TARGET: www.datafast.net/phoenix-computer-repair.html TITLE: View the profile of Phoenix59 ********Checking Page Text and Content Full evaluation of the top site #1 shows there's not much relevant content on the pages to warrant rank 1. Just a few bare pages with very little text. Site #2 does have a lot of on-page information, but still not enough useful information to justify rank #2 in this market. ********So, what's going on? How is site #1 without any good inbound link and very little page content and site #2 with little inbound links and low trust ranking above sites with tens of thousands more inbound links, sites with more content, and sites that dominate in every way with MOZRank. Is this some kind of black-hat SEO that is exploiting an unpublished weakness in Google? If so, what method is being used? Spammy profile links? The current site ranked #1 has been reported to Google as SPAM 3 times in the past. Every time it disappears from the top ranking for a few weeks, but is back again a short time later.0
