Why do some of my sites stop showing up as ranking on SEO Moz (listed as not in top 50) when in google ranks they are top five?
-
Okay - so i have several campaigns.
And of these campaigns, about four or five of them no longer show up as ranking after several weekly crawls by SEOMoz...
Not sure why the line on the chart just stops when they are ranking in top 5 for google organics
am confused by this
can you help me do what i need to do so that the seobot can read my pages and save me time on checking where i rank -
thanks

Robert, you are a nice guy and very helpful - so appreciate you and all your help for this newbie...

Ben,
When you say "just stopped ranking out of nowhere" - ranking for what terms?Upgrading and report differences are coincidental. With both a Plus sites, there was no Google Places verification, etc. Your other sites have that. Trust me, it is big.

Thanks for your attempts to help me understand - but I checked everything and the following sites just stopped ranking out of nowhere
www.aplusmidlandstorage
and
arggghhhh...
it drives me crazy -
I upgraded to Pro and now I wonder if I am just wasting the money - have gotten worse crawl reports ever since -
love SEOMoz - but am doubting some stuff
appreciate you though
be blessed

the second url (lubock) shows up in rank tracker quite well. See Image. Midland does not show up on the ranking. Now, I did find the other (Affordable, Midland) and it is fine.
When I look at A+ Midland, it is totally different than the Lubbock sites. (Places not verified, where as they are done very well for all your Affordable locations.)
As to if the rankings stopped tracking, I can only guess that you may have in some way turned them off in campaigns, or if using rank tracker, you unchecked a box.
Note: Rank tracker. If you put in storage units lubbock and appropriate url, then two weeks later you run another for same but uncheck box and in essence create new, the ranking history will be lost. You must leave the box checked in rank tracker or you will lose the history.

Without a url it is impossible to know what is happening. A guess would be that in SEOmoz you are getting an accurate reading and you are searching in with personalized search on. (You can use the moz SERP Control Panel and turn off personalized). See top right of image.
Another would be that if you had at any time turned off the campaign or changed something. One thing that does happen is if your keyword is Monkey shine, and you have two pages that could rank for it, one could fall and the other rise but I don't know how that would not be noticeable.
If you can share a url that would be a big help.

What all other SEO tool (along with Moz) are you using at your company / SEO Agency / Marketing Agency?
Hello Folks. Let me put it this way. Moz is great. especially, this community of like minded people. But, when it comes to Moz tool's features- it has its own Pros and Cons. And, that's what force us to add other tools to our tool kit. So, just wanted to know what all other SEO tools you use and why??? Let me start this by answering this question: I use SERPed.net as my other SEO tools suite. And the reasons are: It offers 40+ SEO tools ( Few are similar to the ones that I get with Moz, but the other ones that I don't get in Moz are real good. For ex: **Site Auditor Pro, Mobile **Prospector) Along with showing data for their metrics and algos, they pull data from- SEMrush and Majestic SEO. So, I don't need to have subscription of these 2 tools and still I get the data from them. A big money saver 🙂 Let's start this interesting thread 🙂

Accurate Google Keyword Ranking for a domain
Hi Folks, SEO N00b here, in a new job so please go easy on me if i ask stupid questions. I'm looking for some clarification on Google Keyword rankings. I am looking for accurate Google Keywords rankings as when I log into Google Webmaster Tools I am given values like (6-10) for a ranking? When I used SEOMoz (Research Tools -> Keyword & Ranking -> Rank Tracker) it gives me an even less accurate range by simply saying >#50?Why is SEOMoz giving a completely useless metric? Why is its actual rank not shown? I know rankings are becoming less useful as a metric with Google moving toward personalized search but I still have reports to deliver to clients so the conversation of what metrics are going in the report is to be had another day. Right now I just want to get accurate rankings, from what I've found online Google Webmaster tools is recommended as the de-facto ranking tool but it doesn't provide accurate results so how can that be (yes I know it averages out the ranking but 6-10 is a range of values not a single value that represents an average) Dave

Does anyone know why some keyword rankings go from nowhere in the top 50 to ranking 1st to then nowhere in the top 50 in the space of 3 weeks?
SEOMOZ told me to ask the question here because they say their ranking programme now works correctly and the problems I was having before with keywords changing so dramatically, even though nothing had been changed with regards to optmisation, is now to do with google rather than their ranking tool do google really change their algorithms on a weekly basis so that rankings can go up by more than 50 to ranking 1st to then going down by more than 50? Any hints or tips from anyone on I can keep the rankings more consistent (maybe dropping or increasing by one or two places week by week rather than changing by over 50 positions?)

Woo rank features
Is there a way to find the same type of information that woo rank provides via the pro toolset? I am just learning SEO and exploring the PRO tool set and just received a woo rank report for a clients site and right off the bat I see that it is missing the robots.txt file, but I haven't found anything like that on SEO moz. Thanks!

How come my Moz Points stopped incrementing
I was so happy when my Moz Points reached 100 today, but I've done a whole lot more today and it still says 100. Have I broken the system, or is it resting today (it is Sunday where I am)
