International Keyword Ranking
-
I want measure my ranking for keywords in various countries and search engines. If I use a tool such as rank checker to determine my rank for google.uk, google.au.com, etc... is that accurate, or does my IP still affect the rankings I see? If I use a VPS such as Hide My Ass (or another product you would recommend), would that make my ranking results more accurate? I also want to measure my ranking in Russia, where Yandex is very strong so a tool to measure my Yandex ranking + Google would be ideal. What method you would recommend to accurately determine my rankings in different countries? Thank you!

Just heard from a GeoEdge rep who says that they have proxy servers internationally (100+ locations) and a toolbar-based version as well, so sounds like it's worth checking out.

Not sure about Yandex but you can definitely use Advanced Web Ranking combined with dedicated location based proxies from Trusted Proxies. It is a reliable and professional solution that you can setup on your own. The quality of the data and the speed though is also realiable. We are using it for our customers and we haven't got any problems so far. If you are having a really large number of keywords and search engines to track you might need to run a few different instances with different proxies running at the same time. However even a regular enterprise license combiined with a 5 dedicated ip addresses will do a great job for a list of up to a 5000 keywords in 3-4 search engines. Stats with such a volume can be gathered twice a week per instance. There are options for scheduling the reports, and deliver them to FTP or via email.

Never heard of this. Looks great!

www.GeoEdge.com is the answer to your problem, and is free for SEO searches.

There isn't a simple solution. Google looks at IP, browser language but also what kind of keyword is used as a search term. So there isn't a 100% match if you use a rank tracker. It depends on where the rank tracker is situated and how the rank tracker is constructed.
I don't know any rank tracker that checks Yandex, so can't help you there.
SO you can measure the rankings, but there will be discrepancies between the rank checker and the "real" SERP's.

Optimizing Webpages for Keywords- Using Text Links to Distribute Internal Page Rank
My Manhattan based commercial real estate firm hired an SEO firm. The company conducted a content audit, created a keyword matrix and suggested optimizing 51 pages for specific keywords. A specific price per page was quoted, which I understand and accept. I was under thought that setting up internal text links to redistribute page rank and thereby improve ranking for competitive terms was included in the price. But this task was not included in their quote. I really want to avoid getting nickeled and dimed to death. Should this cost be included, or legitimately is setting up the internal link structure something that is an additional expense? If this task is legitimately an extra, how labor intensive is it? A lit bit of extra time when re-writing pages or a completely different task that would be quite time consuming? Also, I believe the flow of page rank within a site can have a big effect on ranking, so setting up internal links is critical. Are these assumptions correct? For some background, www.nyc-officespace-leader.com gets 4,500 organic visits per month. Google Page Rank is 2 and the site was hit by Panda in 2012 but has partially recovered. I would really appreciate some insight from the MOZ community. I do not want to pay too much or too little for these services. THANKS, Alan

Anchor Text for Internal Links
With the updates of Googles algorithm, it has been pointed many times, that over-optimization of anchor text is not good. As I understand, always the same anchor text (e.g. "Marketing Agency in Seattle") draws suspicion. Now what to do with internal link building? Is there any (recent) best practice on using anchor text for internal links? So far I am using always the same keyword(s) for internal links, I want the other page to rank for. Is that still a good method? Thanks, Robin

Ranking for more keywords - Noob question
Hi, I've noticed recently that our site is ranking for a fraction of the keywords that our competitors are ranking for. In terms of increasing the number of keyword rankings per page would it simply be a case of adding optimised copy to each page? Thanks, Dan

Keyword Difficulty: High or Low?
Looked in the FAQ in the Keyword Difficulty tool but it didn't mention whether or not a higher % or lower % is better. I'm assuming that a higher % means that the keyword is more competitive, is that correct?
