Local SEO Rankings Report Tools (based on several locations)?
-
Hi,
Just a quick question.
I am looking for a Rankings Report tool that allows a user to not only provide a list of Keywords, but also a list of Locations for which to check Google UK's ranking results.
In practice, I would like to be able to enter 6 names of Towns next to my keyword list and get "localised results".
Many thanks in advance,
Cheers
Greg
PS: first Q within the Q&A, so please apologise for any potential "stupid questions" -
Thanks for clarifying things! It can look a bit odd to come to a two-year-old question on the day you join and have a link to a product with no context.

Pardon me Keri it's late and I forgot my manners!
made an edit in the comment to correct this. Thanks! -
Hi Ryan,
Welcome to Moz! I noticed your profile has Report Pro in it. If you're affiliated with a product you're recommending, it's a good policy to please disclose that in your answer. Thanks!

It sounds like the multi-location reporting your asking for here is close to what Report Pro does. Check it out here: https://reportpro.net/landing-page/
Edit: Full disclosure I have been good friends with the Report Pro guys for a long time and I have been helping them build out their reporting software.
They originally helped me build Local SEO (Google Maps) reporting software for Voice Media Group and are now selling it to other local SEO companies. -
I know this thread is a couple of years old, but I see you're still active here on the site, and wanted to let you know we now have a ranking tracking solution! Details are in our blog post at http://moz.com/blog/local-rankings-in-moz-analytics.

Hi Paul,
Just looked at some old Q&A of mine...
Whitespark.ca now offer a Local Rank Tracker
https://www.whitespark.ca/rank-trackerA bit pricey but does the job.

Hi Paul,
Many thanks for your feedback. This confirms what I thought...
Proxies are obviously a simple but not easily scalable solution for whomever would want to create such a Rankings Report tool.
Looking forward to seeing somebody come up with a solution to this.
Cheers

The method Megan's suggesting would only provide info in cases where the searcher actually included the geographic modifier as one of the search terms, Gregory.
In order for a tool to provide the info as you want it, it would need to be maintaining proxies in all the possible cities one might want to get "local" search data from (i.e. search results as if the search was triggered from someone in that actual location.)
I'm not aware of any tool that provides that kind of data. I too would love to hear if anyone knows of such a thing.

Hi Megan,
Many thanks for your feedback.
Hmmm, can you please confirm that this would equate to having your browser (Google UK) set to this specific location? I have trouble believing that just adding the name of the city would generate similar results to actually doing a mobile search while in that specific city?
Again, many thanks in advance for your feedback...
Cheers

Hi Greg! This is Megan from the SEOmoz help team. If you start a campaign, our rankings section can track local rankings for keywords. You would just need to enter the keywords separately with each of the towns you're interested in. For example, if I wanted to track local rankings for 'pizza' in different cities in the Northwest, I would need to enter the keywords like the following:
portland pizza
seattle pizza
olympia pizza
tacoma pizza
Unfortunately, I'm not too familiar with other tools that will track local rankings, but hopefully this will help!
Cheers!

Is the MOZ Community Ranking broken?
I have been busy and away from MOZ for a while, but over the years I have been an active member of the community. I have over 2000 Moz points and usually if you haven't been on in the specified time period you become unranked, however this usually updates in 24 hours of logging back in. I have been active again since Sunday and I am still unranked yet I have gained several more points answering a couple of questions. My question is - have I missed something and the system has changed (not according to the top users table) or is the system broken?

Could my Crawl Error Report be wrong?
HI there, I am using Yoast SEO plugin on a wordpress website. I am currently showing 70 Med priority crawl errors 'missing meta description' on my Moz pro account. This number of missing meta descriptions has increased over the last 6 weeks. But every single page / post / tag / category has both the title and meta description completed via Yoast. I requested a google bot to crawl the site a few weeks ago as thought it perhaps wasn't been crawled and updated. Any idea what the issue might be? Could the Moz report be incorrect for some reason? Or could something be blocking Moz / Google from seeing the Yoast plugin?

How To Confidently Start SEOing?
Hi Guys, Im a Web developer (Front end and back end). Ive been learning SEO tips and tricks for the last 2 years but didn't have courage to apply them to any of my clients because of lack of confidence. I say lack of confidence because I never had a SEO Guru teaching me the "Proper" way to do SEO and see ranks change OR how to really take the first step when it comes to a SEO Project, so I didnt know how to even see if my work is paying off. Now I got this client who is a Vehicle Importer in Melbourne, and he imports cars from Japan. Im charging him $200/month for 12 months to improve SEO and cut down his competition and get his site on Google. But I have no idea where to start. His site has a blog setup already and its pretty good structure wise. I have done the On page optimizations and sitemaps etc etc, but not sure what to do next like to build links ?? or do off page optimizations, or do keyword research or really get the site on Google without any bull****?? Can you guys please please show me how to start a SEO project and how to actually use the new Moz to his best use? Thanks a lot for helping me. Regards

Rank Checker Tool Status
Hi I take it the Rank Checker tool is not working right yet as I'm getting bizarre ranks for some of my keywords. Some stating 50th when I know we're on the first page for instance, even using GA > search engine optimisation the averages for this term for instance is 11th across all countries. If this is the case and its still being redeveloped I'll just skip the tool for now Cheers David

Dup titles based on capitaization
I am getting a lot of duplicate title errors when the only difference reported in SEOMoz's detail download shows that the capitalization in URL's from 2 referrer's is slightly different. But there's really only one page. See the example list of dups below: Title: <colgroup><col width="511"></colgroup>
Moz Pro | | tdawgtoo
| College Classroom Maps | URL: <colgroup><col width="566"></colgroup>
| http://www.wall-maps.com/Classroom/College-maps.htm | Dup'S URL from another page: <colgroup><col width="566"></colgroup>
| http://www.wall-maps.com/Classroom/College-Maps.htm | So you see the M in maps is capitalized in the A tag on the second referring page. I would be pretty shocked to learn that Google would consider this a duplicate title, but I am always learning new things. I do have canonical set up on my home page because this site can be accessed by www.wall-maps.com and wall-maps.com. So I don't think it's a lack of a canonical. Could this be a bug in SEOMoz's crawler or is it because IIS is not case sensitive and maybe Apache is?? Thanks in advance to whom ever can shed some light on this. Ted0 -
Best Keyword Difficulty Tool?
Hi All, I'm a bit frustrated with the fact that I can only enter 5 words at a time into SEOmoz's keyword difficulty tool. Does anyone know of a better way (or tool) to analyze keyword difficulty for hundreds of keywords?

Where can I find documentation for the different SEO Pro Tools?
I apologize if this has been asked and answered or if the documentation is right in front of my nose, but I can't find it. I'm looking for information that explains what the various tools do and in particular, what each of the fields in the reports mean? For example, what does the "Find Links on this Domain" link mean in a Juicy Linkfinder Report? I know there are lots of resources on SEO and best practices and so on, but wondering if documentation on the specific tools exists. Thanks.
