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

Thanks Eli

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

Feature Request - Consolidated Ranking "Watchlist"
Working across several campaigns I track a lot of different keywords. Not all of these keywords receive the same level of attention from me all at the same time. At the moment I use a label of "Watchlist" to track the most important keyword terms, but the limitation of this is I have to check each account separately. It might be nice and useful to have a consolidated watchlist of important keyword terms which spans across all accounts, so I can quickly see at a glance the snapshot of those most important keywords.

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?

Can you please add Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex or at least Counties to local keyword search areas?
I would like to request that a "Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex" option be added to the keyword search areas. As it stands, each city must be individually chosen, which is not only very time consuming, but also acts as an insurmountable multiplier for the keywords used in our campaigns. Most businesses in DFW serve the entire Metroplex, which consists of around 200 cities. Even the core largest number well over 50. Almost all of these cities are within about 50 miles of each other as well. Asking the majority of businesses to only focus their SEO monitoring efforts on a few cities in the Metroplex would be like asking a Hyper Wal-Mart to only monitor about 10% of their inventory at most, and more likely 1-5%. Alternately, if you could instead have County choices for DFW, that would help a lot. The counties of DFW are: Collin County

Dallas County
Denton County
Ellis County
Hood County

Johnson County
Kaufman County
Parker County
Rockwall County
Somervell County
Tarrant County
Wise County The three in bold are typically the most important for businesses in the Metroplex, though each of the outlying counties listed contain dozens of cities as well, each with their own particular specialties, focuses, and demographics.0 -

Keyword opportunity & Google flights
I am currently giving keyword advise for an airline company. Since they have huge competition from sponsored 'Google Flights', I was really happy with the 'Keyword Opportunity'-metrics in the Keyword Explorer. However, Google flights does not seem to be consistently taken into account for the Keyword Opportunity score. Eg. 'Place A to Place B' gets a low opportunity score (50-60), which makes sense, because there are four Adwords ads + a huge 'Google flights' box above the classic 10 blue links. However 'Flight from Place A to Place B' gets a score of 90-100. If I check the last query, there is the same 4 Adwords ads, and also the Google Flights box. The Opportunity score seems completely unreliable here?

Dear Moz-Team, i used your **Keyword Difficulty **Tool for the Top 10 Results on a keyword. Our competitor is on Rank 5. and we are at 14.

I wanted to compare all Keyword Difficulty Parameters with these two websites.
Unfortunatelly, it just allows me to compare the first 10 matches. Is there a way - maybe via your API - to compare with Ranks > 10.? Thank you very much in advance, D.L.0 -
