Best SEO Analysis Tool
-
I'm looking for a tool that will analyze a webpage for a specific keyword phrase and deliver good recommendations as to what I can do (on page and off page) to increase the Google ranking for that keyword phrase.
I'm trying IBP now, but so far the results haven't been good. Any suggestions?
-
Thanks Mike.
After a second look, I see another page of our site ranking well for the keyword phrase. It's ranked 5th. That probably has something to do with why the other page is ranked so poorly.
The page ranked 5th is also getting an "A" rating from the On Page Keyword Optimization tool. It has a PA of 39, the DA is 50.
The PA of pages ranked 1 - 4 are; 33, 40, (unknown: Amazon), and 25.

Page Authority is explained here.
www.seomoz.org/learn-seo/page-authority
It's our number one metric to understand why a client ranks some where on a page. Have lot's of clients who start with an A grade on the Keyword tool, but are not ranked. It's the Pages "PA" that has the largest determining factor in ranking. (In general)
-
The site I tested is a national site. I'm not familiar with "PA" and "DA". Could you spell that out for me. Thanks you.

If your page is getting an A, can you tell us the PA and DA on the page and domain, and what those are for the competition?
Is this a national site , or Local. If local there are several other factors that will apply.

Hi Frank
As Michael and Simon have said the SEOmoz on page tool is great for this.
In terms of getting good recommendations for how to optimise you just need to look at the 'Factor Overview' and then go through each of the factors in 'Page Analysis Detail', click 'more' and it explains what is best practice there.
I really don't think you need any other software or tools for on-page optimisation although as suggested there are some for Wordpress but unfortunately I don't know any for the two you mentioned.
If, as you say, you get grade A but you're on page 3 of the serps then your on-page seo is good but perhaps the competition is stronger off-page and that is the area that needs the attention?
How do your domain and page metrics compare to the competition? Have you tried the keyword difficulty tool which is fantastic:
Run that for your keyword and then run a full serps report to see the competition level?
Let us know how you get on.
Cheers
Trevor

I've got one site running on Joomla and the other (an ancient site) running on Interchange. Any suggestions on plugins that can help in either of those environments?
-
I just spent a few minutes testing that tool and the recommendations are basic and not very useful. I one test, a not terribly competitive keyword phrase that's ranking on page three in Google delivered an "A" rating for the page.
Thanks, but I need something more robust.

The SEO Moz tools are great. If your site is wordpress there are a number of wordpress plugins that can help.

The best tool for this, hands down, is the SEOmoz On Page Keyword Optimization Tool (if you've never used it). I'm not sure what IBP is, but this tool lets you input a keyword and the specific URL/page you're targeting for that keyword and they will give you a grade based on how well it's optimized and what you should do to improve that grade if it didn't get a good one. I use it CONSTANTLY.
Hope this helps!

Need advice on setting up primary domain and shopify site analytics to work best together
Hello, I have a client that I have been working on their primary site for the last year or so. In the last month they decided to have one of their internal employees setup a small shopify store. Now they are asking for the analytics tracking codes for it. My question for you is what would be the best way for me to set that up? variables: primary domain and shopify domain, google and bing analytics Have been looking at how cross domain tracking works (https://support.google.com/tagmanager/answer/6106951), and the instructions for setting up ecommerce in analytics for shopify (https://help.shopify.com/manual/reports-and-analytics/google-analytics/google-analytics-setup). But am still not 100% which route would be the best, any input would be greatly appreciated! thank you, Dustin

SEO traffic had significantly dropped
I know this question has been asked before, but I'm hoping someone can address my specific issue. We recently did a complete redesign of our site and moved it over to a new server. The site was even "down" for about a week, where we had a static splash page. However since relaunching (it's not been over two weeks) we've seen a significant drop in search engine traffic. We are using Yoast for Wordpress. The site is The Tech Block. Could anyone see if there is something we're doing wrong? Thanks

Fb, twitter, etc stats tool?
I once saw a tool (from Distilled, I think?) where you would input your blog post or page URL, and it would give you a table showing how many Facebook likes, Tweets, etc that page has gotten. Does anyone have the URL for this or a similar tool?
