Ranking keyword VCA
-
We want to rank higher on the keyword VCA. Our direct competitor VCAnederland ranks one place higher and we want that place. If we look at some statics from the Open site explorer, we score better.
PA: VCAdirect = 53 VS competitor = 46
DA: VCAdirect = 43 VS competitor = 39
Total links = VCAdirect = 8415 VS competitor = 3051
External followed links = VCAdirect = 8178 VS competitor = 1059
Linking root domains = VCAdirect = 146 VS competitor = 105
SEOmoz competitive Domain Analysis (gives other numbers)
DA: VCAdirect = 44 VS competitor = 40
DMozrank: VCAdirect = 4.30 VS competitor = 4.50
DMozTrust: VCAdirect = 4.00 VS competitor = 4.18
when I analyze the site with the SEOmoz tool.
We see this figures:
VCAdirect:
PA: 53 / MozR: 5.89 / MozT: 5.89 / Tot links 8415
VCAnederland:
PA: 46 / MozR: 6.95 / MozT: 6.16 / Tot links 3051
On the on page Report card we score both an A.
Where should we focus on to win the position?

Social links seem to be effective in boosting rankings. I would focus on getting facebook shares and tweets to your URL. Just be sure to be non-spammy when you go about it. Try to create a genuine social presence for your brand/website and as the links trickle in here and there you should see a little boost.

How much keyword density for Google?
I have several pages on one site which have gone down during the past few months. They keyword density on those pages, which is not unnatural, pleased Google for many years. it still pleases Bing. But Google now seems very picky. Based upon your experience, what is the ideal % keyword density for 2 and 3 word phrases, and should they be left out of alt tags even when proper to put them there? While Google dominates, we do not wish to alienate BIng/Yahoo. It is a huge mystery, and experimentation with more non-keyword-related text has so far not born any fruit. Thank you, GH

I'v been trying to rank for this word for a long time
Hi, I have this one page designed to rank for a spesific word i google (sweden). The page has a flawless moz grade A on-page. While my competator ranks for their subdomain, also grade A. I rank 6 he ranks 2 in google. Would I be doing a misstake if i 301 directed it to mu subdomain. In visitor perspective it would be a better landig page aswell. I dont want to lose my rank though. Best practice, anyone?

Keyword Ranks reported by SEOMOZ don't match actual searches
SEO Moz reported that various keywords I was tracking were not in the top 50 results on Yahoo or Bing, yet when I did a Yahoo or Bing search for those keywords (from multiple computers and not logged into any Yahoo or MSN/Bing account) I found the keywords easily. What's the scoop?

My client has shown me a similar site, though not a competitor. He wants to know what sites they are linked from that give them such a good Google rank for certain kewords. Can SEOMoz tell me this?
When using google.com.au and searching for "travel to france", www.frenchtravel.com.au is the 3rd organic result. (the 1st two are not travel businesses, they are non profit travel guides) My client, who runs www.visituk.com.au, an Australian site that organises tours of the UK, said "so we just need to add these sort of words to the site?" I said, yes, but it doesn't end there. The real task is to have a link to your site on other sites surrounded with the words "travel" and "UK". He asked if he could see a list of the sites the french site was being referred by relevant to the search phrase. Is there an SEOmoz tool for this? Or is there another way I can generate that list? Thanks Simon
