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

Thanks for taking the time to have a look.
Not too sure I can do much with the re directs ( except the .com ) as it is a limtation of the company hosting the site.
Will try a little more content and link variation too.

OK in 2 seconds - your redirects are incorrect
http://www.kerryblu.co.uk redirects to http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/
but
http://kerryblu.co.uk/ redirects to http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/index.asp
Aslo change the redirect on kerryblu.com to point to correct url
Where else might you have got this wrong? are you running Xenu or IIS crawls?
You also have too little content on your pages
http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/bridal-earrings-2-c.asp
http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/crystal-allure-bridal-jewellery-set-869-p.asp
I see you have been linkbuilding with the term "Kerry Blu - wedding accessories" make sure your link text diversity is natural

I agree with Stephen and Andrea.
Sit it out. I would allow 2 more weeks for a powerful site and a month for a site that is new or without a lot of connectivity.

Thanks
The website is www.kerryblu.co.uk
Google has crawled the site site the changes were implemented and the result appeared to be a sudden drop in ranking.

Ranking don't always increase right away (although it's ironic that they seem to drop fast, eh). Google will need to recrawl and reprocess your information. SEO "stuff" doesn't always make sense - and, while I am sure you did everything correctly, there could be something else going on.
As Stephan posed, if you are willing to share your URL, someone may be able to peak and see if they notice something you haven't.

Sit it out.
What is the url?

Unsolved Is the Keyword Explorer tool down?
Hi, I was supposed to work with researching keywords today. After researching a few queries in the Keyword Explorer, it stopped retrieving keywords and shows the message, “Getting keyword suggestions failed. Please retry your search or refresh this page”. The issue has persisted for a few hours. Thanks in advance.

SEOmoz not showing Google rankings accurately in Ranking Reports. How do we fix this?
We have a running campaign for a client who has rankings show for Yahoo and Bing within the SEOmoz Ranking Reports, however, Google shows no data or rankings. When we manually check from different IP's and computers and browsers, we see our client ranking very well in Google and for keywords which we have inside their campaign for SEOmoz. Can anyone provide insight into this? Have you experienced this also? Our reports would look terrible going to the client if sent from SEOmoz directly as Google shows 0 (Not in Top 50) for all keywords, so we have to get rankings from other sources or manually to show our client. Thank you in advance for your help and tips everyone!

Not really helpfull... Any advice? oNDu9

Top ranking with no SEO
I ran an SEOMoz keyword difficulty report for the term "interim CFO services" and found that all of the websites that ranked really well for that term have good page authority and domain authority scores and plenty of incoming links.....except 1. result #5 has a page and domain authority of 1 and no incoming links, however it's ranked #5 in google SERP for this highly competitive term. see screenshots: http://screencast.com/t/NJiOn8N4l http://screencast.com/t/x6tU1RhX4j Is this ranking based solely on the domain name being 100% relevant? Did they just get lucky and hit the google rankings jackpot? If this is the case, by the same logic I am trying achieve high rankings for the keyword "outsourced accounting firm" and purchased the domain name outsourcedaccountingfirm.com and am not even ranked in the top 50 with google for that keyword. (it's very new though) any feedback on either questions above would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

SEOmoz pro campaign keyword rankings.
Using the tools in the SEOmoz pro repertoire I have inserted keywords. Will the rankings tool show me the rankings for any of my pages on the site that have listed for this keyword, or just the home page?

What time of day are keyword rankings updated
The keyword rankings in one of my campaigns update on Tuesday. It looks like they updated today but when I downloaded to CSV, some say last Tuesday. Is this because they didn't change or are they still updating? Today is Tuesday. i.e., do they update at a specific time and if so, what time?

Tracking Keyword Positions
Hello! I've been working with the various Google Docs Spreadsheets out there taking advantage of web scraping using xml and the seomoz api. I want to be able to track keyword rank by week, I've been playing around but can't seem to get it nailed on, I'm looking to put keyword in column 1, domain in col 2 and keyword rank on google uk in col 3. Anybody done/seen anything like this in a G spreadsheet? Cheers Jamie

SEOMoz Campaign Tool
I've noticed that when looking at the SEOmoz tool, specifically the On Page analysis tool, it is still looking at an old url. About two months ago I made updates to all of our category page URLs. Previously the old urls were stuffed with keywords, strange characters and were really long. When looking at the on-page tool though it is referencing the old urls for keywords and I'm wondering why? I figure its been long enough to recognize the new urls. Is the paring of a keyword and a url saved and just graded on a weekly basis to produce the report? I had expected to see the new url's by now which are also represented in the sitemap. Around that same time I also added our TellAFriend Page and Review pages to our Robots.txt file as not to be crawled but I still see these pages come up in the errors report. Should this update as well?
