Ranking on google search

Hello Mozzers
Moz On page grader shows A grade for the particular URL,but my page was not ranking on top 100 Google search.
Any help is appreciated ,Thanks

I'd actually recommend checking out the Moz Keyword Difficulty Tool, and the Full SERP Analysis Report it can generate. That can give you a breakdown of the factors that are most likely helping the top 10 sites for a given keyword rank, which can in turn help you work out what you'll need to do.
Cyrus Shepard made a great video on it here.

Honestly speaking there is no such tool exist that precisely let you know why you're not ranking and others are.
But in terms of backlinks comparison, you may utilize Moz analytics feature and OSE's "Compare Link Metrics" & "Link Opportunities" options.
Thanks,

The site which was ranking at no 4 and 5 does not have much optimization and backlinks but it was ranking at no 4.
Is there any tool to find out why the site is ranking at no 4 and why it is not.
Thanks

If your page secured the "A" grade in on-page, it doesn't mean you will be in top 100 now.
Various other factors including backinks, targeted traffic, technical SEO things and lots of other things are also very important.
Hope this helps!

Hi there
The page grader is great for on-page optimization for particular keywords or queries, but it doesn't necessarily guarantee rankings.
Reason being - the keywords/queries you are trying to rank for could be incredibly competitive or difficulty to rank for. Your industry SERPs could be taken over by big brand names or companies that have been around a long time with authority built in the industry.
There are a multitude of factors to consider in your ranking position:
Domain / Page Authority
Backlinks
Personalized Search Personas, Keyword Research, & Content
Schema markup opportunities
Local SEO
And a ton more...I would recommend paying attention to your Average Position in Google Search Console so that you can pay attention to how Google is ranking your site directly. Given personalized search and the factors that play into it, this is a good gauge on where you rank across multiple factors (location, device, search history, etc.)
I would also recommend you check out the multiple guides that Moz has, as well as the Moz Academy - both have tons of great resources and can get you started on the right foot to ranking for what you want to be ranking for.
Hope this helps! Good luck!

My site name is bestmedtour .it's in English. I also want to have the Arabic version of the site. If I translate it with Google Translate, is it possible that the Arabic version of the site will be penalized?

What to try when Google excludes your URL only from high-traffic search terms and results?
We have a high authority blog post (high PA) that used to rank for several high-traffic terms. Right now the post continues to rank high for variations of the high-traffic terms (e.g keyword + " free", keyword + " discussion") but the URL has been completed excluded from the money terms with alternative URLs of the domain ranking on positions 50+. There is no manual penalty in place or a DCMA exclusion. What are some of the things ppl would try here? Some of the things I can think of: - Remove keyword terms in article - Change the URL and do a 301 redirect - Duplicate the POST under new URL, 302 redirect from old blog post, and repoint links as much as you have control - Refresh content including timestamps - Remove potentially bad neighborhood links etc Has anyone seen the behavior above for their articles? Are there any recommendations? /PP

Why does Google rank a product page rather than a category page?
Hi, everybody In the Moz ranking tool for one of our client's (the client sells sport equipment) account, there is a trend where more and more of their landing pages are product pages instead of category pages. The optimal landing page for the term "sleeping bag" is of course the sleeping bag category page, but Google is sending them to a product page for a specific sleeping bag.. What could be the critical factors that makes the product page more relevant than the category page as the landing page?

Local Google Place Ranking loss
One of our clients lost rankings on the local map results. Last month we changed the phone number on the G+ page so the number is the same as on the website but it's still a call tracking number. We also changed the url to example.nl/plumber-newyork so it directly links to the local page and we made the local G+ author of the local page in the website. Can these changes have something to do with the ranking loss in google maps results?

Keywords Ranking Varies When Search changes Location/City (Not Google Places)
We have a client that are ranking well on most Australian cities for competitive keywords except Google Sydney. If you toggled the cities on the search field when you search for a keyword, their places are almost exactly the same except for Sydney on which they can't be found at all in the Top 100 results. The keywords are not city specific, they are general commonly searched keywords about health. This is not a Google Places issue. The search result shows the right landing pages of the site for their respective keywords. Any ideas or experience on this kind of situation. Much appreciated Louie

Google+ Pages on Google SERP
Do you think that a Google+ Page (not profile) could appear on the Google SERP as a Rich Snippet Author? Thanks

Not ranking as well in Yahoo/Bing as in Google. Why?
For my top 132 keywords, my target ranks an average of 7 positions lower in Bing and an average of 9 positions lower in Yahoo. Does anyone have some good resources to read, or any tips on why we would rank so much poorer in Bing/Yahoo than in google?
