Get the keywords Google is ranking my website
-
Hi,
I'm using the Moz keyword explorer to know which keywords Google is ranking my website. It says my website is ranked just for 7 words which I find very estrange...
Any idea? If I use the google AdWords keyword explorer I get a lot more of keywords for my site. Which one should I trust to improve my seo?
Thanks,
Regards

Yep your right!
At this time, due to data limitations for international locations, you may see limited search volume data available for the country you've selected. We are working to increase our international volume data in the application, but I'm afraid we don't have an estimate for when volume data will be available for your keyword. In the meantime, I'd recommend using other tools alongside Keyword Explorer such as Google Keyword Planner and Wordstream.
If you have specific questions with regards our tools and your website, feel free to message us at help@moz.com

Many thanks Eli
So, Moz it's showing me just 7 keywords because the other keywords are too much weak or are positioning me very far from the first positions.
Then, I understand, I should pick which words I'm looking to rank and work for improve it.
Am I right?
Another topic I'm facing it's that when you access to the site it redirects you by 302 to another page depending what is your default language configuration. Example:
If you've set your browser in English does:
mywebsite.com -> mywebsite.com/en so, all the pages are mywebsite.com/en/contact; mywebsite.com/en/about-us; etc
If you've set your browser in Spanish it does:
mywebsite.com -> mywebsite.com/es so, all the pages are mywebsite.com/es/contact; mywebsite.com/es/about-us; etc
I'm checking the keywords for the Spanish site, and I've set the campaign configuration to use the Spain Google Search Engine but the keywords are just a few and in English.
I don't know if I'm missing something.
Regards.

Hey!
Thanks for reaching out to us!
Our keyword tools are only going to be showing data for keywords ranking in the top 50 spots in Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs). We do this by design because in general, most people searching on a search engine typically do not click past the 5th page of SERP results. Additionally, beyond the first 30 or so results, SERPs tend to get incredibly volatile. So, reporting on these types of fluctuations starts to be less meaningful overall, which is why we're only going to be showing you data for the areas we'd consider to be in your best interest to focus on.
Ultimately Keyword Research can take place in many forms, and many different tools (which you can trust) can be used together for you to pinpoint which Keywords to go for.
I hope that helps,
Eli

In Moz's Keyword Explorer/Explore By Site, Can I Exclude a Keyword From the Results?
Hypothetical question - Let's say I sell tax preparation software and I want to see the keywords that "turbotax.com" ranks highest for. Based on that list I might want to optimize for similar keywords on my site. But if I use Keyword Explorer, select "Root Domain", and enter "turbotax.com" as the root domain, the first 200 or so keywords in the list have the word "turbo". None of those interest me. Can I exclude certain keywords (like "turbo") from the list? Thanks.

In custom reports, Can we get a module for finished tasks?
Hello, I like the automatic scheduled report feature. I was wondering if I could send clients a small list of tasks completed on the 'insights' page of campaigns? Every week I usually do tasks from the 'insights' section of the campaign, then I click finish when I've completed that tasks. I would like to be able to show that to clients monthly. Is this possible?

Global Keyword Rank Research? What is the best method to do this?
I am looking for a tool that will show my how my competitors rank for keywords across regions. Can MOZ help with this? I know right now I can add their website and export a list of terms they rank for, but it would really help me to see how that number fluctuates and changes across the globe. Any solutions?

Is there an API to download keyword data?
Howdy fellow Mozzers, We're tracking a client's keyword rankings in one of our campaigns and want to export that data on a regular basis to display in Tableau. Tableau let's us quickly match up different data sources and create visuals with the data. It's useful for marrying different data sources that don't normally talk to each other. We know we can pull keyword tracking data manually, but we're hoping there's an API or scheduler that we can use to download the data automatically. Automating the process would be super helpful. Thank you!

Will the Moz Keyword Explorer Tool (which I LOVE BTW) some day allow you to see search result figures broken down by location?
I know this is a long shot, but are there plans to eventually filter keyword volumes by location like the Google AdWords tool does today? Or is that never going to happen? Assuming not, are there other recommended avenues for teasing out keyword volumes of a local vicinity? I work for a health system, so nearly all of our customers are local. So I always feel like I have to guess on words like "urgent care" since obviously I'm not trying to rank nationally, but often people do not use a geo modifier term when searching.

Can you add a "Show All" to Rankings Pagination?
For some reason, you've decided to paginate the Rankings page. You state the community has requested it, however I find it far less user-friendly and more time consuming. A feature that would fix it for me is to add a "Show All" link. A "Show All" is common in pagination, not sure why it was left off. Here is why I want it - supporting statement: "Since page lengths are changing, and I've exhausted keywords for one of my clients, I am going back and rewriting copy. I am choosing which pages to rewrite based ranking and they have over a couple hundred keywords so pages 1, 2, 3.....14 does me no good and takes forever to find page 10 or 9 or whatever page has the rankings that are in the 11-20 spot so I know which ones to plan for the next month. It's a valid concern. If your software slows me down over prior versions, I don't care what anyone "wanted", it's not smart."

What tool will check my keyword rank alongside search volume for that keyword?
Hello Moz Community, I'm wondering if there is a tool (or a function with Moz Pro) that will check my keyword rank alongside search volume for that keyword. I'm able to see my keyword rankings in Moz Pro, but can't see search volume for those keywords. I'd love to prioritize which lower-ranking keywords should be improved based on their search volume. Any ideas? Thanks! Robert
