Thanks for your help, I will make it a priority to fix as many as I can each and every day. What tool were you using to find the errors?
You are right that I don't rank well for Calgary condos but the other sites are only marginally better.
-
you are correct, for most errors it would be worse if they were on the more impoartant pages.but the 3,000 leaks is just as imporant no matter where they are, as link juice flows though a site. if you get a link to page B it also helps Page A, You have a leak in B it also affect A.
blogs are most likly place to find errors as they are dynaicly produced, just like a CMS, and they usealy produce messy code
-
I am happy to start working on the issues as well. Now it will take time - a lot of time. But bit by bit, I should make headway. I think most of the issues are blog posts, do you think they have the same weight at the rest of the site?
-
There are more then a few technical issues. over 3,000 link juice leaks i found.
you are doing well as Real Estate is very competitive, but you could do better.
I use this analogy, if a fisherman has holes in his net, he needs to do more fishing then the man who does not. If you have violations in your site you need to do more link building. -
Ok thanks. Yes a few technical errors that I need to work on, other than the scan that is here, would there be more I can do to find more errors? If so where can I find out that info so I can work on those things.
My concern is that this site as well as a couple others that are currently below are working hard to get to the top and I don't want to find myself at the bottom of the page in the next while.
I wasn't overly concerned with Bing, maybe I need to look at it closer. I have been doing a slow clib there, so hope it continues to improve.

What are there keywords?
How do you do for calgary condos?
But you do well for calgary realestate, which is obviously a compeditive keyword
i did a scan on your site and it has a lot of technical problems, so i would not say you have an advantage there.
You do have a keyword domain name, i looked at a few others that have keyword domain and you beat all in rank and trust exept for calgaryrealestate.ca and they dont beat you by much. and they come just behind you.You may have other factors correct that google likes, i also notice you dont do well in Bing
i dont see a lot of suprise here. -
I actually beat them on all keywords so not sure how that goes with the theory. ?
-
Anthony is correct, they may not be optimized for the same keywords, they may beat you on others.
Also Page Rank and Trust are only one factor. No use pointing links at a site that is technicaly flawed, and many if not most sites on the web in my opinion are -
Maybe your link quality is better for the "keyword" you are using...My rookie guess...But, I would look at that including your anchor text from Higher Quality sites..
Just a thought...

Moz Rank Moz Trust and Authority higher than my competitor but still getting outranked
Hi There, I'm new to SeoMoz but ive been using it for the past month and I've been using the tools to try to optimize my site but for some reason even though my metrics are showing that my rank and authority are rising past my competitor they still rank higher in the searches. my website is the site on the far left with the domain authority @27. the competitor that keeps outranking me is the third from the left with a domain authority of 12. If anyone can advise as to why I'm being outranked that would be very helpful. I'm stumped here. Thanks guys! eYtMRr9.png

Much better authority and content than some competitors, why do they appear first?
On august we have lost the top positions for some keywords. Our website authority is 62 (google page rank 5), and some quite small competitors appear first now (some of them have authority 22, google page rank 3!). Our only big change was the DNS server, from godaddy to dnsimple.com, which seems to be some milisseconds slower. Every other metric is in our favor: from on-page repports to site speed. Sometimes by a factor of 3 or 4. What can be happening? We have also realized that, in private browsing, rankings will change a little bit in different cities, even if they are quite close to each other.

How to find a neutral rank for a webpage a keyword term?
Hi!
Competitive Research | | lilactree
I'm sure this has been answered here already - I'm just not searching for the right words. I'm trying to find the ranking for a website for specific terms. Being that the search engine remembers what I search (I try to log out, privately browse, etc), everything matters and impacts my search. I'm trying to see what a website ranks for a person who has never visited that website before, or doesn't have other factors influencing the result. I tried the keyword research tool, and while that seems to deliver what I'm after, it only gives 1-10. Even though these are the coveted positions 😉 I'd like to know if a website isn't ranking there, and is further down. We track the progress made after work is done to a page, to see if it moves up, and what other tweaks we need to make to improve the rankings and attract clicks. Thanks!0
