Ranking history
-
I am having trouble on getting a ranking history for some of my keywords. Is this feature still working?
thanks
-
Hi Timothy - the rank tracker tool has been working the past few months, but is, sadly, once again down for maintenance (as per http://www.seomoz.org/dp/rank-tracker-update).
That said, the PRO web app - http://pro.seomoz.org - is still working and can show keyword rankings history. If you're looking for a purely free, on-demand rank tracking tool, we recommend SEOBook's: http://www.seomoz.org/dp/rank-tracker-update
Cheers!

The last thread here was June, and its still down. Do you have an ETA?
-
Hey Mauro,
I got an ETA of 2-3 weeks from my engineers about 1.5 weeks ago. So it shouldn't be too much longer and we'll have everything squared away.
Cheers,
Joel.

Hi Kenny, do you have any updates regarding the history issue with Rank Tracker?
I need to monitor many different websites for just a few keywords and Rank Tracker has been the tool I've been using for quite a while...
Thanks!

Thanks!

Ahh... The standalone Rank Tracker is a different tool than I have been referencing. It does appear to be having issues displaying the chart. I'll put in a support request for our engineers to look into this.
I do recommend that if you have keywords that you need to track historical data for that you use the rankings tool inside of a campaign. This is the preferred way to track keywords over time. I suggest, when possible, to strictly use the rank tracker tool for one off rankings collection.

Kenny,
The rankings history chart is broken. It can not be viewed.
If I go to http://ranktracker.seomoz.org/ and click on a keyword and then click "ranking history" a pop-up window appears. However it is empty.
I have done this in firefox, IE and Chrome.
This charts are fantastic if they work, however, they have not worked for me for the past few months.

We will store data from your weekly rankings updates and allow you to view this history for your keywords. You can only see historical data back to the point in which that keyword was added to your campaign.
Unfortunately, we can not pull data from before that keyword existed in your campaign.
Hope that helps!

I am asking how can I have a ranking history.

Thanks for helping @shiftins
Rankings only update on a weekly basis. The date your rankings are updated is shown on the either the campaign overview page on the rankings module, or on the rankings page at the top of your keyword's table.

Ranking for keywords in multiple zip codes
Hello, We are trying to rank for keywords locally. We are on the edge of four zip codes in our area and are competing with businesses in those zip codes. Should we track each keyword separately for each zip code, or just one zip code we're in?

Rank checking tool for keyword analysis
We are looking for an ideally free suitable rank checking tool to perform a keyword analysis. Previously we used Firefox Rank Checker but currently this is not working effectively as it once did. We use Authority Labs as a paid tool to track rankings but this is a rank tracking platform and not so effective for a once-off rank check to perform a keyword analysis. Any thoughts, help or ideas here would be super appreciated!

Should I concentrate keyword ranking locally or nationally?
Hi all, I have spent few last days reading here in community and watching Moz videos about keyword research. I used keywords planner tool. Here is the question. When I researched keywords I took into account search traffic nationwide UK rather then my local search volume. My photography business operates more for local customers rather then nationwide. Does it mean that I need to concentrate on my local city/region search volume rather then nationwide. After I have done Nationwide keyword research I realised that most of those keywords which are with really high search volumes are pretty much non existent in my local search results. I meant to the point that keyword search volume is under 10. Considering that I have small number of pages i could use them for, my guess is that it is no point to target those high search volume keywords as most likely those won't be my clients anyway. I might be getting all this wrong, but wanted to ask here. Thank you all, Regards, Armands

Importance of news headlines for their search rankings
Hi there, we're trying to determine how to best write headlines to make our articles more findable. We're a Theater content and ticketing site (theatermania.com) and we're about to publish an article describing outdoor Shakespeare in New York City. We've discussed a few headline options (we automatically use the headline as the page title, although we aren't married to this) below. Are any of these much more findable than the other? For example, are we shooting ourselves in the foot if we lead with "Fill your Summer...." in the first option? Fill Your Summer in the City With Free Outdoor Shakespeare Summer in the City With Free Outdoor Shakespeare Free Outdoor Shakespeare This Summer in the City

Weekly Keyword Ranking Report Question
Howdy folks! Okay so apologies for the n00b question, and additional apologies for going over ground that's potentially already been ploughed. I'm compiling a tally of the Weekly Keyword Ranking Report for a client. For the past three reports, the particular keyword I'm logging has remained in the same position. However the Change column shows it as having decreased in rank, by the same amount every week. If there has been no change in the ranking, I would have thought it would display as "Unchanged". As it stands, it shows up in the Declined category, and that seems odd to me. Anyone have an idea as to why this would be happening? Thanks for any input you can provide! Kevin

Counting Places LIstings in Manual Rank Checking?
Hello, When doing manual keyword lookups, are people counting Google Places listings in their rankings? E.g. If the website's places listing is the "5th" item on the results page, do you count that keyword as "5"? -- even if the organic listing comes up first at, say, position $20? On one hand I'd be in favor of including them in order because "who cares" if the user sees your website first, or the Places listing that points to your website first? But then again, it's my understanding that places listings are highly variable, so that they should be skipped entirely in calculating rank positions. So what are others out there doing? And by places of course I mean Google + Local/Plus or whatever they are calling it this week. Thanks!
