Hi
yes there are some tools available in the pro version of SEOMOZ the you can use the rankings and history section to show your positions for that keyword and also shows the actual result page and where you and your competitors rank for that keyword. you can also use the on-page tool which allows you to setup a report card for a targeted keyword and it grades your results based on the on-page optimisation of that page for the individual keyword.
Rank checker:
1.) setup and campaign for your domain
2.) add your competitors to that campaign
3.) check under the rankings section for your keywords and where you rank
4.) click on the targeted keyword to view more in depth detail ( it shows you graphs and stats for that keyword) scroll down the page to view the current ranking for that keyword it highlights you and your competitors positions.
On-page optimisation
1.) use the on-page tool to generate a report based on the keyword optimisation of the page url.
this returns a graded report of how well optimised the targeted page URL is for the keyword.
You can also check the back links of a competitor using the link analysis section
hope this helps

Accurate Google Keyword Ranking for a domain
Hi Folks, SEO N00b here, in a new job so please go easy on me if i ask stupid questions. I'm looking for some clarification on Google Keyword rankings. I am looking for accurate Google Keywords rankings as when I log into Google Webmaster Tools I am given values like (6-10) for a ranking? When I used SEOMoz (Research Tools -> Keyword & Ranking -> Rank Tracker) it gives me an even less accurate range by simply saying >#50?Why is SEOMoz giving a completely useless metric? Why is its actual rank not shown? I know rankings are becoming less useful as a metric with Google moving toward personalized search but I still have reports to deliver to clients so the conversation of what metrics are going in the report is to be had another day. Right now I just want to get accurate rankings, from what I've found online Google Webmaster tools is recommended as the de-facto ranking tool but it doesn't provide accurate results so how can that be (yes I know it averages out the ranking but 6-10 is a range of values not a single value that represents an average) Dave

On Page Report - To Much Alt. Text Keyword Usage
I ran a Moz on page report for our Roho Cushions page using the keyword Roho Cushions. I found "keyword stuffing" within the page, mainly from alternate text on images. The report told me I have 45 IMG ALT keywords & 28 Body Keywords. I cannot find the keywords I've used in the body, and if I inspect any image element, the keyword is not used as alternate text. I've ran this report multiple times in the past 2 weeks and have come up with the same results. Does anyone have any solutions? Thanks!

Import Keywords from 1 campaign to another
Hi There, I've got one campaign set up and just created another in my dashboard. I have roughly 300 keywords added and categorized in campaign 1. I want to export these exact keywords, (and to also remain categorized the same), into campaign 2. How can I do this without having to add each keyword individually and recreating the categories again? Basically, I want to export my keywords/copy/past from one campaign, to another. I don't want to set everything up again. How can I do this? Thanks, Reena.

Meaning of Keyword difficulty
Before joining SEOMoz I used to calculate Keyword difficulty with my own method based on keyword density, presence of synonyms, Page rank, title and URL. This seemed to rather well work and I reach 1st page on a fairly regumar basis by picking good difficulty / interest ratio keywords and only onsite optimization. (No link building) I just looked @Keyword analysis in SEOMoz. It seems it is only based on page / site autority. Is this correct? Do you believe keyword and synonym density is irrelevent? Do I need to set back to my home recipe if I want to include keyword analysis in my difficulty assessment ? Thx

Problem with the keyword difficulty tool
sorry if this has been asked/been written about previously, I had a search but couldn't find anything. I am using the keyword difficulty tool to narrow down on some keywords and whilst the % score for each keyword is being displayed, the Google Adwords data is blank. It just shows the animation as if it was pulling the data but after some ten mins or so not data is pulled, just the animation still running. Is there a problem with the tool or does the problem lay at my end? Thanks, Carl

How to tell where a competitor's Facebook Shares are coming from?
Is there a way to tell where a competitor's facebook shares and likes are coming from? How to also tell what ads they have running in Facebook and their spend? I am looking at OSE's data and its telling me a competitor has 8.5K Facebook shares and 1K facebook likes. I go to their facebook page and it has about 25 likes. This site should not have anywhere close to the facebook shares/likes its receiving so wondering where they are getting their boosted traffic from.
