Tracking keywords beyond #50 in the rankings?
-
Although Moz does a great job of tracking keyword rankings within the "top 50", a lot of the time with new sites and new content we are trying to track improvement in performance way out beyond that (just trying to get into the top 50). Although Moz tells me that a keyword has moved up or down outside the top 50, without knowing the actual position it's hard to reconcile that in terms of improvement.
Is there a tool out there that will do what Moz does for the top 200?

Sorry, but you have clients and use a free tool to report keyword rankings? Is it really that good?

Hi there, you've received several responses. Did any of them answer your question? If so, please mark up to three as "good answers." Thanks so much!

Out of all the rank trackers I have found it the fastest and least likely to fail when checking a large amount of keywords. Well, approx 120 any way.

Cuterank Great free version for single site!
I love the unlimited time historic graphs for ... good to show clients the "hard work done"!
I wouldnt pack it up with a huge list of keywords and serps cause as it runs in your computer and it may turn a little bit unstable and block serps.
Cheers!
attached a long time historic graph

Cuterank is a great ranking checker that will check up too 100 results and any amount of keywords even in their free version. The free version is limited to a single site however.

There are actually several tools that can do what you are looking for but as far as the accuracy of data is concern, mostly are paid.
There are tools like SERPS.com, Rank watch, Advanced Web Ranking and more… I agree with James about the ideal of Google Webmaster toll but expecting too much from it is again not really a very good idea!
Hope this helps.

You can track beyond 50 with tools like AWR - (Advancd Web Ranking) you may need a proxy to run it depend on the number of keywords you want to track.
If you want estimate rankings for free then you can use (Google Webmaster Tools Ranking data or SEM Rush) which will show ranking data. That been said the data from SEM Rush and from GWT will be limited and will only be taken as a estimate.

Unsolved Make Moz reindex the pages for keywords
Hi Moz says we're 18th for a phrase but that's for the page /himonsia-generators because that was the highest ranking page. If you search now for "heavy range generators" we're jumping between 10-12th position but it's for the page /products/generators - which is correct. How can I make Moz "Reindex" the pages?

Keyword difficulty always high
HI there, I'm new here and am just getting used to the keyword difficulty tool. I've noticed that just about every keyword phrase I type in, including ridiculous ones such as "perspex underpants" or "guy debord's shoes" all have a difficulty well over 50% and many over 60%. It makes little difference what my phrase is. Am I doing something wrong perhaps? How am I to interpret this result? It would seem to suggest that It is always very hard to rank, even for a rare and ridiculous phrase.

SEO Moz Rank Report
Anyone else noticing the rank reporting seems to be off? My reports are showing "not in top 50" for some keywords that my site is on page one for. Not in places listings either because I know that can throw things off! Anyone?

Site Ranking Report
Hi guys, My site ranking report says that I've gone from being 1-20 for a variety of keywords in Google UK to not in the top 50. When I do a search myself I see that my site remains where it previously was (between 1-20). How reliable is the site ranking reporting on a weekly basis? Is it best to look at it monthly?

Do you track both plural and singular variations of your keywords?
Howdy, In trying to make the most of the keyword tracking slots we get with the SEOmoz tool our discussion turned to the importance of tracking both variations of search terms that could be plural or singular. The example is that we run a local business search database so we target search terms like "chicago pet stores" and "chicago pet store", however the language of our site almost always uses the plural version of the business category. On one hand we want to know exactly how we rank for variations of search terms, but on the other, with the number of categories we have we could be tracking thousands upon thousands if we included every variation ("pet store chicago", "pet stores in chicago", etc.) So what say ye fellow optimizers? Is it worth tracking variations of search terms or do you find that Google is smart enough in coalescing the intent of similar search variants that tracking against the most commonly searched one is enough? Thank you all!

Can I see search volumes against my keywords?
I love the keyword tracker tool on SEO Moz. However I can't work out how to see search volumes for each keyword. So while I know how I am ranking for each keyword.....I have to open a separate spreadsheet to see the local Google Monthly search volumes and then cross-refer the two, which is clumsy and time-consuming. Is there a way to amalgamate the two? It seems like such a major flaw that i'm sure its there, I can't work it out. Thanks all, Dan
