Majestic gives me a 24 situation and 24 trust flow. Seomoz just a total number of 7\. How come the difference? My ranking is still bad, so is Majestic crawling faster then google?
-
Hi, my total domain value number on SEOmoz is 7. In Majestic it is 24 situation and 24 trust flow. My ranking is still bad (page2) and my competitors have a lower trust/ situation flow in Majestic. But in Seomoz the're better.
Is the conclusion that Majestic is more up to date then Google itself and that Seomoz is more inline with the google crawling? Because Majestic doesnt reflect my ranking.
(ps I started with the domain for a month, and I only have some history in registration)

It looks like Google hasn't re-cached that page since you were added:
So, the links may just not have taken effect yet.
-
haha too bat. A link from home at Seomoz would help
The link is on there partner website: http://www.topmba.com/qs-world-mba-tour/partners but we have over 30 links frome serveral good domains.
-
Argh... sorry, I meant "happy to look" (not "link") - my typos are the worst I was curious what page on TopMBA.com had the link, so that I could help assess any quality issues.

Hi Peter thanks again. Its a website in the Netherlands:
www.goedkoopsteautoverzekering.net which means cheapest car insurance in the Neterlands. The main keyword is "goedkoopste autoverzekering". A link would be great!
-
Ah, sorry - yeah a DA=7 and an mR=7 are very different
We're getting new indexes about every couple of weeks now, I think, but it depends not only on the domain, but on how deep the page is in the domain and what the quality is of that page. Some pages, even on good domains, don't carry much weight.
Also keep in mind that, even once Google has cached it, the impact of a handful of links is rarely immediate or even noticeable. It's much more complex than that, so ultimately you've got to keep doing what you're doing. It doesn't really matter what our stats say or Majestic's stats if you're not ranking. In other words, don't build a few links and then sit around waiting for the metrics to update. Keep rolling forward.
If you want to post a sample link, I'd be happy to look, but I realize this question is public, so I'm not sure if that's viable for you.

Thanks for the reply.
its not the Mozrank but the Domain autority which is 7. The PA is 1. But I have several high quality links. For example from topmba.com. What is the delay of Seomoz/ opensite explorer to get these links crawled? Shall I just use Google cache memory date/time to know when Google last indexed my site?
-
Our general opinion (obviously, we're biased) is that the SEOmoz stats are better at tracking high-quality links, but the Majestic stats are fresher and track recent links better - if I had to over-simplify it. When you say your "domain value number" is 7, do you mean MozRank? What are your DA/PA stats like?
Keep in mind that, regardless of which numbers you use, these are only two pieces of the ranking puzzle, which has hundreds of factors. Our MozRank and MozTrust are analogous to Google PageRank and TrustRank, but there are many other factors in link quality and there are many ranking factors that have nothing to do with links.
If your site is only a month old, it's even harder to get a clear picture, as Google may still be assessing you. Your ranking could move a lot in the next few weeks.
One of our community members recently wrote a post that's a pretty good introduction to other ranking factors:

Currently Number 2 - Worth Shooting for 1?
Hello SEO Community, So I was able to rise to #2 in a highly competitive search term after a guest blog post that I wrote really took off (wish I could recreate that for my other terms, haha) Anyway, I steadily rose from 30ish to number 2 and have obviously seen more traffic, which is awesome and I'm happy. But still, in terms of the amount of traffic that google estimates the keyword gets, and the amount I'm getting at #2, it seems like #1 is getting the VAST majority (I know this is how most markets work). Judging from my link profile compared to #1, it would be extremely difficult to dethrone them. So what do y'all think? Is it worth spending time and resources shooting for the glory and traffic of #1 and potentially never getting there - or focusing my efforts on my middling keywords and getting those on the first page as well?

Ranking for long tailed keyword vs shorter keyword phrase?
I have a webpage http://freightmonster.com/free-freight-quote that currently ranks 19th in the Google SERP's for the keyword free freight quote. The keyword gets 59 exact match searches a month. Competition is high for this keyword. The keyword freight quote gets 8625 exact match searches a month and my home page http://freightmonster.com/ ranks 26th in the Google SERP for it. Competition is high for this keyword. Would I be better off creating another page http://freightmonster.com/freight-quote and doing a better job of on SEO optimization for it in the hopes of getting on page one, or given the fact that freight quote is such a highly competitive term should I just go after other long tailed keywords in my market like flatbed trucking freight quote, heavy haul trucking freight quote, RGN freight quote, etc? We have just started on SEO for organic keywords after spending over $500,000 on PPC in the last 5 years, which in our market niche is the norm. Thank you in advance!

Using Semantic Language to rank, how much stock do you put into this? (LSI)
In theory, analyzing the top results for a given phrase and comparing the common words and phrases would indicate what google considers relative language to the query. Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) was and still is a buzz phrase for some SEOs. But how much stock do you give to the idea that if you can determine the common language for top rankers and then duplicate that language and density of common words that your website will then rank for that query you desire? Has anyone here tested the theory of using semantic language from the results themselves to better rank?

Another how the *%#^ is this site ranking question
I saw a question posted by someone a while back asking how a certain (in their opinion crappy) site was ranking in the top then. It happened that there were some good reasons for that site ranking. Well.... I have stumbled on a site that seems to be ranking for (almost) no reason at all: relatively low DA/PA very few inbound links (none seem to be that special) thin content The only thing I can think of, is that the site has the keyword in the domain name. But looking at the search results, there are other domains with exact match keyword in URL and somewhat stronger metrics that don't rank.

Two links with the same quality but different effect
Hi, the website I'm working for is loosing rankings for one specific keyword and since there haven't been any bigger onsite changes I assume it's the back links. The company bought some exact anchor text links in the past, so I went through those. One specific one attracted my attention: It's a site wide link which creates over 80% of the back link profile to the specific website. There was only one catch: part of this bought anchor text campaign is another highly targeted anchor text which is not negatively affected by the rankings. Still I didn't like the feel of this so I ran the seomoz keyword difficulty report. And there I discovered an interesting pattern: For keyword A we are the only ones in the top10 with such a high percentage of exact keyword usage. But for keyword B, which didn't loose rankings our top10 competitor have an even more over-optimized keyword usage or much weaker back link profile. So now I wonder if it could actually be the case, that we loose rankings for keyword A since our competitors have a more natural profile, but for Keyword B it has no negative effect due to the worse competition. Thanks in advance for your help!

Sometime I just don't get Google rankings
We currently rate #10 on google.com.au on Modern Cloth Nappies and the #4 site is a dead link to a page http://www.modernclothnappies.org/ who's total content is: Index of / <address>Apache Server at www.modernclothnappies.org Port 80</address> <address></address> <address>They have been at that rank for a quiet a while and even the cached version is full of broken links.</address> <address></address> <address>It seems Google is quick to jump on low value sites or ones with duplicate content, but what about stale links and sites? Has anyone else had similar experiences of being out ranked by domant or dead sites?</address>
