Any quality Local SEO tools with good reports?
-
We have used BrightLocal for some time now. With Bright Local we do not like the reports from a qualitative point of view in that the information is often wrong.
Does anyone recommend something other than Bright Local?Thanks,

So glad to be of help, Robert! Have a great week.

Ahh, Miriam,
You are always there for me. This appears to be a great resource and I will follow up on it in the a.m. I will let you know how it goes.
We usually just buy whatever workable level (like SEOmoz Pro) to start with and test it out for 3 to 6 months. If it works we expand or stay with it and if not, well we don't.
I actually had higher hope for BrightEdge, (EDIT: THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN BrightLocal NOT BRIGHT EDGE. We use BrightEdge for our enterprise solution and are two to three months in and liking it so far.) but we get to much conflicting data to make it actionable for our clients who are paying us. I will let you know how Places Scout works out for us.
Thanks as usual, you are the best,
Robert

Hi Robert,
Nice to see you on this sunny Monday! I have been hearing good things, on an agency level, about Places Scout for local tracking/reporting. I have not personally used it, but some of the Local SEOs I respect most have spoken highly of it.
You have to sign up for it via this page on the Warrior Forum:
I'm not sure how it compares, point for point, with Bright, but I thought you might like to check it out.

Is there a good tool for finding co-occurance words/terms?
It would be great if there was a tool that helped find words/terms frequently used with other terms. For example, a search in this theoretical tool for "mobile app development" could bring up "iPhone app development" and "mobile app design" as examples of frequently co-occuring words. Any ideas or tools for this kinda thing?

Mobile SEO vs. normal SEO?
Hi everyone, I wanted to ask you abour your opinon on mobile SEO. Do we already have two different Indices, one for mobile, one for desktop? Except a few mobile listings I don't see a difference yet. If yes, do I need to do special mobile SEO for my site or is it enough to have e.g. a responsive webdesign which detects the device and shows a different page? Are there any other extra Mobile SEO measures that should be considered? I know of the Mobile Sitemap and directories but is there anything else? Best regards

Local + National seo for a new website
Hi, Look for idea for a website owner selling training courses on painting , he wants to be ranked locally first but also national on google Serp (only one physical address available). His domain name is rather a branded one (no kw in it), and the website is recent (1 year) . An audit will be focused on competitor rankings to find niche KW. I 'd advise : - For local : optimized Google address listing + local business directories + optumized page with local emphasis (shema.org ..) For national : to make unique relevant content pages with keywords geographically targeted (according audit), for instance for a specific town, to include terms related to this particular local market etc.. 1/ What 's else could i suggest to start a national ranking ? 2/ Have you heard of a tool to make distant queries on Google ? I mean , i leave in Madrid (spain) and want to see google serp as if i was in Barcelona ? (seems difficult as google uses Ip). Tks in advance for your advices...
