Software for checking local listings?
-
Is there any software that you can enter in the name of a company, phone number, address, or website URL and get back a list of all the local search terms they are on the first page for?

Hi Chase,
Linda has given you very good information here. I also recommend that you check out 51 Blocks' competitive analysis tool: http://www.51blocks.com/online-marketing-tools/free-local-analysis/
Though not, per se, a ranking tool, it provides a great deal of free insight into why certain businesses are achieving certain rankings.

Hi Chase,
BrightLocal and Places Scout are the 2 best known rank trackers for local. But none of them, including Authority Labs do it the way you want to do it.
With them all you enter the KWs you want to track and it will report on the rankings. None of them find all the existing KWs you rank for.
I only know of one tool and it's free that will go out and FIND whatever variety of KWs a site is already ranking for. Again it's free, so not totally reliable and only works if the tool has already picked up the site.
But it's a very cool and relatively unknown tool I discovered and posted an in-depth overview about recently that demonstrates how it could be used for local search. The tool is savedhistory.net. May need to dig around to uncover the power of it. I had to play with it quite a bit for my post, to get to the meat of the features that are cool for local KW ranking and research. Here's the site I used in my example so you can go right in and see what it does without digging. http://savedwebhistory.com/d/90210dentist.net
Again it's free, not pretty and not comprehensive - but can be useful for the situations I cited. Pre-consult, new potential client, to see what they may already be ranking for. OR for KW discovery to find out what other KWs competitors in that industry rank for.

Authority labs checks keyword rankings (keywords that you define) at the domain level, and reports if the SERPS are displaying local listing for that particular keyword.

How to check if a domain has been penalised before I buy?
I guess the question is in the subject. We have a client that wishes to buy a domain and use it to replace the primary URL on their website. Although the domain is currently not in use, it was back in 2002 until about 2010. We're concerned that this could cause issues if we change the name over and the domain itself has had penalties in the past

Best tools for an initial website health check?
Hi,
Moz Pro | | CamperConnect14
I'd like to offer free website health checks (basic audits) and am wondering what tools other people use for this? It would be good to use something that presents the data well. Moz is great but it gets expensive if I want to offer these to many businesses in the hope of taking on just a few as clients and doing a full manual audit for them. So far I've tried seositecheckup.com (just checks a single page though), metaforensics.io and mysiteauditor. Thanks!0 -
How do you run ranks now for clients that aren't in your local area now that Google customizes search results based on location?
How do you run ranks now for clients that aren't in your local area now that Google customizes search results based on location? What tool/service have you found that gives accurate rank results? To me it seems like there is no guaranteed global #1position any more, or is this the situation for only certain types of searches? Likewise how can anyone tool give a global accurate rank score?

Can you export a keyword rankings report with the keywords listed in order of ranking ?
My keyword ranking report shows the results all jumbled. I can put them in order when viewing the report online, but when I export it , the results go back to all jumbled rankings.

How do I delete labels from the list of labels we've used?
How do we delete labels from the pulldown in moz, that we already created, but no longer use. The function "delete labels" only deletes labels off of certain keywords. But we cant figure out how to remove unused labels completely from the list of labels. Thanks, Thanks, Andrew

Can the link acqusition tool / web directory list be used for non-english language enquiries?
Hi there, We are currently in the trial period of seomoz pro and have been testing all of the availiable tools. We are very happy with OSE and the other professional tools however we have discovered a barrier in our research methods. 1, Does anyone know how can you use the link acqusition assistant for non-english enquiries? The suggested search queries that are automatically generated are "submit site" "submit url" etc, but this has almost no use for a non-english keyword. - Also are the results only displayed for google.com - is there no localization at all of search enquiries? 2, The list of directories provided by seomoz link: http://www.seomoz.org/directories are anglo-centric. What are the availiable options for non-english speaking directories / local directories NOT based in the United States? Any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated!
