How do I get my report to show ranking for a location such as pittsburgh or columbus?
-
I am not interested in US ranking only Pittsburgh and Columbus as that's where my client's offices are located. Are there settings to help me view our rank on our areas?
Thank you!!

Hello Vanessa,
I recently discovered a tool that might also answer your question. It's called KeySR (keywordsearchrankings.com) and it was launched a few months ago. Basically the tool crawls search engines from almost any location in the world and reveals Google search rankings as they are displayed to any user from that specific location.
Even though my answer comes a little late, I hope you'll find it useful.

Thanks, Mark. Good answer. Not the answer I was looking for or hoping for but good nonetheless.
Thanks again.

Couple of different ways to show local rankings:
1.) You need to use geotargeted local keywords like pittsburgh and columbus to see localized results for keywords.
2.) For competitive domain analysis you can rank against other local sites if you enter that information in. SEOMoz does a nice job of tracking the history related to it if it is one of your campaigns.....
3.) Google places you can see where you rank when you pull up the localized keywords.
There isnt some drop down option to create a geo-targeted local area in SEOmoz. its important to make sure that you understand that all of the search engines will determine the keyword(based on the IP) and will give you local results. The new local SERP for Google generates a "blended" seacrh result which is a combination of national listings along with local directories and places and other media.
Hope this helps you. If I answered your question please give me the thumbs up.

Micro Location Site with EMD , Property related
Hi I have a client, who focus is on Commercial property leasing in Johannesburg and surrounding area's. We find that people search for "area"& "property type" The client bought 50 exact match domains for keywords that we currently run in Google Adwords for example:We advertise on keywords: "Midrand offices to let" and bought Midrandofficestolet.com, now the group wants to make small micro sites with unique article about commercial property in that area "Midrand" with a link to the main site where the "midrand properties" are listed . The feeder or micro sites will also have contact details of main site. the domains will all be hosted on the same server, registered to the same owner est. Is this typical link farming? or should we rather build the articles on the main website and park the domains on the area categories? The clients main-set is that he will same money on adwords by owning the EMD and from that link to his main site Your guidance will be much appriciated

Local vs Global Search Results Yield Very Different Rankings Lately
When I monitor my website's rankings, I always do it from Canada (direct connection) and from the USA (using a VPN in Arizona). I've been monitoring rankings this way for the last 3 years. Most of the time, I got similar results (-5 / +5) from both location. My website is a ".com" and targets an international audience. Lately (is it since Panda 22?), I've seen dramatic differences in rankings from both locations. Some keywords will rank in the top 10 on Google.com (from the USA) while they will appear on page 3, 4, 5 and even lower on Google.ca (from Canada). The thing is, the top 10 results on Google.ca are not even from canadian websites. Fact of the matter, there are even some results from India websites (.in) in the top 10! I understand that Google.ca will give advantage to websites from Canada (or targeting the canadian market / .ca domain name) over international / US websites but there's never been such a huge difference in rankings until lately. Has anybody else experienced this? What are your thoughts?

Ranking Problem (my most important Q so far on here)
Hi, I have a keyword which is location specific and without any work doing to it, it ranked page 4 position 7. I did 4 guest posts all in one go and the it moved to page 3 position 5, I then left it for a week (position didn't move) and did another guest post a day after the guest post had been indexed I lost rankings and moved back to page 4, position 4. Has anyone got an idea why this happened? Is it a case its just fluxing and I could see in a few days it come back to page 3 position 2 or do you think I got an initial boost because the guest posts all went up and its just a fluke that it dropped when the 5th one went up? This is a big deal for me because I rely on guest posting a lot, I've even got a copy writer pumping out 500 quids worth of content a month just for guest blogging. I need to understand what is happening, this is one of the most important questions so far on here so I would appreciate some talk on the matter.
