Is there a problem with Weekly Ranking report this week?
-
I just received my weekly ranking report. 2 Up, 0 down, 8 the same this week. However, last week my page was #2 for "innovation conference" and this week you report "not in top 50." My first thought was penalty, but when I searched and removed personalization, we were still #2 for that search query. So, something must be wrong with the report - either we're 1 down or "not in the top 50 is wrong."

Hi Anthony,
Just checking to make sure that this is resolved. If it hasn't sorted itself out, please email help@seomoz.org and open up a ticket. Do let them know which Google site / which country you're targeting.
Thanks!

Thanks! So now I'm looking for an explanation as to why my weekly ranking report says that I'm not in the top 50...
-
I see you ranking #2 in the SERPs for that term.
-
iirusa.com and the page that ranks for innovation conference is iirusa.com/feiusa/fei-home.xml

Anthony,
What is the name of your site?
thanks,
Cyle

Thanks for the suggestion, Cyle. It turns out it is the same URL from one week to the next. I still have my ranking (phew!) but those 2 elements of the report are at odds with Google, and with each other. If SEOmoz is reporting "no results in top 50" shouldn't they also be reporting "1 down" if last week the same URL was ranked #2?
-
Anthony, check and see if it is the same URL you have set up to track in the weekly report as you see in the SERPs. The same thing happened to me the other day, but it was just Google replaced my current ranking page with a different category page on my site. So, i was still ranking in the same position, but for a different page on my site.
i hope this helps,
Cyle

Why am I ranking high for a keyword that is nowhere on my page?
There is a specific keyword phrase that I am ranking in the top 10 search results for. When I run page optimizer in Moz, my page is given a score of 73 and I'm predictably told I need to include this keyword somewhere on the page. This specific keyword phrase is not included anywhere on the page - not in image files, image alts, anchor text from inbound links (that I can find), text content, meta-titles or descriptions - it's nowhere. Meanwhile, a keyword phrase which Moz' page optimizer tells us we are scored 96 for we aren't even in the first three pages of search results for. What's going on here? On the surface, this seems to be telling me the Moz page optimizer is kinda...broken? Why am I ranking in the top 10 for a keyword phrase nowhere on my page? Thanks in advance for any help.

What works when common ranking factors fail?
I have seen in few instances where the ranking factors doesn't seem to work for competitive keywords. The websites which don't have more than one or two links rank much higher in search results. Any clue what SEOs should do in that scenario?

Does anyone know why some keyword rankings go from nowhere in the top 50 to ranking 1st to then nowhere in the top 50 in the space of 3 weeks?
SEOMOZ told me to ask the question here because they say their ranking programme now works correctly and the problems I was having before with keywords changing so dramatically, even though nothing had been changed with regards to optmisation, is now to do with google rather than their ranking tool do google really change their algorithms on a weekly basis so that rankings can go up by more than 50 to ranking 1st to then going down by more than 50? Any hints or tips from anyone on I can keep the rankings more consistent (maybe dropping or increasing by one or two places week by week rather than changing by over 50 positions?)

Why is my site not ranking?
I have done various link building strategies, and used all white hat seo methods. SEOMoz even shows that my site is better than all my competition, but yet it doesn't rank ANYWHERE on Google. Can someone point me in the right direction as to why this is happening? I have attached the opensitexplorer screenshot showing my competition. 2013-02-13_1456_zpsb86ab0e1.png

Google shutting down Rank Tracking Software? - Raven and AHREFS close down ranking results.
Hi, I was wondering if other people had noticed the (very sudden) closing down of the ranking tools for both Raven and Ahrefs - both of which were major parts of their software. Given the sudden and synced timing my guess is that Google is throwing its weight around and banking on the doors of companies offering ranking software with the threat of a fat lawsuite! What is everyone else using for their rank checking ? Will this impact SEOMOZ ranking results ?
