Can Moz tools help me with this effort?
-
I want to brainstorm different keywords, look for high search volumes, and low competition. Then I want to create landing page, rank them using seo techniques, and collect optin email addresses so I can communicate with interested users and build helpful products.
With all the moz tools available to us, how can I accomplish the above mentioned goal?
Have you done some thing similar? What are your experiences? Am I talking pie in the sky? Are there any practical examples where all these steps were executed?
Thanks

Hi! Sorry for the delayed response. I'm sorry you're feeling stuck. We are going to try to build some guides to be emailed to new users to help them get started. Meanwhile, give Moz Academy a try!
Thanks,

Hi Miranda,
I have spent some time reading moz beginner seo guide. I have also read advanced seo guide. I have watched mozinars. I know lot more about SEO than when I joined MOZ. But things are still very blurry. Its still hard for me to take my keywords, run them through keywords tool , site analysis etc. and come up with an action plan. I feel lost. May be a sample detailed case study would help people like me. I am stuck and dont know what to do next with all the information that tools provide. I don't have step by step action plan laid out. Or I don't have any example foot step to follow on what to do so that my site or landing page would rank up. Is there a SEO service out there that would help me see things for very REASONABLE price?
Just very lost and confused.
Thanks

Hi there! I can't tell you how manny links it would take to get the page to rank on page one. It depends on the competitive-ness of the keywords, the quality of the links, and several other factors. Try running that landing page and some of the keywords you're looking at through the Keyword Difficulty tool, then click the keyword and scroll down to see the top ranking pages and the link authority metrics. Then run your landing page through on OSE and click Compare Link Metrics to see where that page currently is. This will give you an idea of how different your page's Page Authority is from the pages ranking for that keyword.
For a general overview of SEO, I'd suggest reading moz beginner seo guide and the advanced seo guide as Vadim recommended. You can also try Moz Academy -- its a series of tutorial videos for Moz Subscribers; they're really good!
Hope that helps!

Hi Miranda, thanks for such a great answer. I will look into all the approaches that you mentioned.
I am interested in AppointmentReminder related keyword and there are already established players. I want to create landing page using http://www.kickofflabs.com/ . How can I start start ranking this landing page? Do I need to get lot of blog articles to start ranking that landing page? How many blog articles or "earned link" would it take for this landing page to get to Page1 ranking?
Thanks again.

Hi there! Here are some suggestions I hope you'll find helpful:
- Keyword Research
- A free tool called UberSuggest might work well for helping you brainstorm some keyword options. We hope to add more keyword brainstorming tools in the future at Moz.
- The Moz Keyword Difficulty tool is good for checking the relative volume and competition of the keywords you've brainstormed.
- Create & Optimize Content
- Create the landing pages to target the keywords you choose, then use On-Page Grader to get a quick list of ways to optimize the page for the keyword(s) you care about.
- If you create a campaign in Moz Analytics for your domain, you can track keywords to see their ranking changes over time. We'll also find the highest ranking pages for all the keywords you track and tell you how to optimize those (similar to On-Page Grader). We also show crawl issues affecting your pages' ability to be found by search engines.
- Outreach - Moz doesn't have any tools specifically for collecting email addresses on your site (anyone have any good tools for this?) but we do have a few tools that might help you with outreach strategies (finding leads, creating relationships, talking to your customers).
- Followerwonk is a tool that lets you search and analyze twitter users and data. One way to use this would be to do a bio search for people interested in your industry / product area. You could then begin creating relationships with them through Twitter or find other ways to reach out to them.
- Fresh Web Explorer lets you see where certain phrases are being mentioned throughout the web. You could use this to search for web conversations about your products, brand, competitor products, industry, etc. You can also set this up in a Moz Analytics campaign for a specified domain so that you can regularly track and review new mentions.
- Open Site Explorer lets you see which links you have to your site / any site you enter. So you could enter related or competitor sites to see which sites link to them, and perhaps they'd be interested in your content as well. Or you might get new content ideas from looking at this.
Hope that helps! Looking forward to seeing what others use as well! : )

I reviewed these resources but still my questions are not answered.

Good question, or questions. As you are asking about keyword research, landing pages, ranking, and conversion/email collection.
For a general overview you might want to read moz beginner seo guide and the advanced seo guide.
Also I do want to address one important part that moz can actually help with, and its not their tools per se, but the landing page that they have created:

Hope this helps

Moz Pro Tools
Hello I ran into a error while using Moz Pro Tools Crawl Site feature. Stating that my wordpress website could not be crawled. When contacting moz they sent me this screenshot stating the reason for this error is because of the odd ip address highlighted in yellow. Only time I've seen this particular ip-address is during local development. If anyone has any advice on how to fix this or what may have caused this issue. I feel this maybe effecting the site's overall search visibility. ednqnL7

MOZ Pro - Page Grader Queries
Greetings! I started a new position last week and the extremely supportive director promised to give me anything I required to make my job easier. Of course, my first port of call was MOZ Pro. Having never used MOZ Pro before, I've just been getting to grips with it, fixing any pressing issues and giving the whole site a general SEO health check. A few fairly major issues have been flagged, which I'm in the process of fixing, and I'm currently putting our main landing pages through the MOZ Page Grader. After a little bit of tinkering, our iPhone 6 cases page has been graded B for the term 'iPhone 6 cases', but I have a few queries/concerns regarding some of the suggested fixes: **Avoid keyword stuffing in document **- The term 'iphone 6 cases' only appears thrice in the body, so it can't be that? The term, however, appears 23 times in the page's img alt tags. Could this be the issue? This is an ecommerce site that sells iPhone 6 cases, so the img alt tags are bound to contain that keyword. Each img alt tag is unique, so I don't really know what I can do here? "Show details for YouSave iPhone 6 0.6mm Clear Gel Case" is the example of the img alt tag of one of the products on that page, surely I can't remove the words 'iPhone 6 case'? Avoid too many internal links - MOZ suggests keeping the internal links to below 100 or, at a minimum, less than 100 links on the main navigation menu. I haven't counted, but I'd guess that page has more than 100 links, but not too many on the navigation menu. To me, this looks like a standard ecommerce page, with links to products and different pages via the top and bottom menus. Would I improve visibility if I reduced the amount of links by, say, reducing the number of products on the page? We currently have it set to 36, but can easily be reduced. Only One Canonical URL - We've put a fix in place for this issue and are just waiting for it to go live. For some reason rel=canonical tags have been duplicated on the majority of the pages. Like I say, this is being remedied, but I just wondered whether a duplicate tag negatively affect the page's visibility? The tags are identical and just point to the page they're on. I think that's about it for now! Thanks in advance and keep up the good work! Cheers, Lewis (Andrew is the name of the director) UPDATE Now I've sorted the rel=canonical issue, the pages are being graded A but still with the first two suggestions above.

Perplexed - Errors increasing, moz rank dropping, conflicting data from other sources. Please Help.
Hi there, I'm in a bit of a bind and could seriously do with some help. For the past month I've been working with a client to resolve errors onsite. In that period my moz rank has plummeted and my errors (dupe title & content) have increased dramatically. The correlation makes sense, the increase - not so much. Here's why, screaming frog is reporting that the majority of duplicate titles have been removed or dealt with. I've also got the assurance of the developer that the suggested changes are being implemented. Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the CMS - umbraco - and this is the first time I'm working with this particular developer, so I'm not sure how to gauge progress without using moz tools. So, here are my immediate questions: 1. Why would I get different results from Screaming Frog and Rogerbot? 2. Has anyone here been in a similar situation and could they recommend areas to watch for errors creeping in? 3. Is there a way of identifying which errors have occurred when? Narrowing it down to the week each error occurred would be good enough. 4. Is anybody aware of any inherent SEO flaws in umbraco or common SEO mistakes made using the CMS? 5. is there anything I could provide you with to help you help me? 6. Do you have a suggestion? I'm pretty stuck. Thanks in advance.

Does SEOmoz have a keyword visibility report / tool?
Know of a tool where I can show the overall success of a set of keywords, us vs. the competition? A visibility report where a #1 ranking is worth 30 points, #2 is worth 29, so on and so on down to #30 worth 1 point, outside of the top 30 is worth nothing. (something like this). Trying to show an overall visibility scorecard, not sure if I can do it here or with some other tool. Didn't see it on Raven. Thanks!
