Best site/tool to get exact rank of a site
-
Is there a site/tool that will give me the exact google rank of a site for a specific keyword?
-
There is no tool that can give "the exact google rank of a site" because there is no longer any such thing as an exact rank anymore, unfortunately.
As a result of all the personalisation that is now built into search results, it is unlikely any 2 users will see the exact same ranking results for any query. Things like location, personal search history etc are used to customise the ranking of results that each user sees.
The closest you can get to what you're asking for is to use Google Webmaster Tools. There you can find the average ranking for a keyword that's driving traffic to your site. Keep in mind that some will see your pages much higher and some much lower, but all the personalisations involved will be taken into account to produce the average. You can also see a rough number of impressions for the search terms and also whether the average rank has gone up or down (and by how many positions) compared to last month.
Regular ranking tools basically try to eliminate all the personalization from their measurements, but since real users don't search that way, the results they give aren't the same as an real user would see. They are useful for trending analysis, but shouldn't be mistaken as repeatable for human users.

Rank for a keyword with a slightly different designation
Hi guys, I'm a newcomer in the world of SEO. I'd like to rank for the keyword "therapy toy" but I'm used to name my product "therapy smart toy". Is a slightly different designation of my product can affect my ranking position in the short or long term? Thank you for your help 🙂

Any keyword tools to do this?
Hi, I'm looking for a tool which can pull keyword idea data from Google Keyword Planner at landing page level for multiple URLs at once. Right now with Google Keyword Planner you can only manually do one URL at once. Which will give you 800 keywords. I'm looking to pull landing page keyword ideas for about 10 URLs at once, so in total i should get about 8,000 keywords. Any tools which can automate this with Google Keyword Planner? Cheers.

Niche vs One massive site
In the past I've done fairly well building niche sites for automotive accessories. The problem is, it's hard paying attention to 50+ sites after a while, and the quality ends up going down. Because of this, I've decided to focus on one large site for trucks and their accessories. I have a site called truckprofile.com where people can create profile pages for their various trucks. It gets fair traffic for not doing much with it. I recently threw a blog on the site: truckprofile.com/blog. This will be my area for posting articles on niche, commonly searched, easy to rank for phrases. So my questions are: Is building one massive site better? If so, how should I structure the blog area so that each article ranks well? Would it be better if they were well categorized pages in wordpress instead of blog posts? By posting all the articles on a single site, does that mean it will be harder to rank for any single thing since the topic is so broad? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The tools "term extractor" and "explore links" consistently give no data
I am accessing these tools from the "Rankings Report" page and looking at competitors pages. I click on the dropdown next to the keyword and select either "extract terms" or "explore links". In both cases I get a message that says SEOmoz has no data for the page in question. This happens consistently for many keywords and pages. What gives?
