Best numbers but 6th position
-
Hi.. I'm trying to understand your system but even watching the video tutorial you never said anything about the icons (checked gray) that appears in Difficult reports.
And another question.
Do you have any idea about WHY we have the Best Page Authority, Page Linking, domain authority and Root domain Linking Root Domains and we are are the 6th place on ranking..
We used to be at the 1st for years and not we are going down..
Thank you

I'd work towards making a great user experience on the site. Look at improving title tags, calls to action, improve the descriptions of the properties and some additional content. Personally I'd remove the ad-sense
-
If you were me where would you work at?
-
That would seem like a pretty decent load time - anything sub 2 would be on the right lines.
-
Got it! I'll try to improve that, Do you think that 1 to 1.5 seconds is too long for a user to navigate?
Out time Never reaches 2 seconds for page to be fully loaded.
Tks Michael

DA - Domain Authority
PA - Page Authority
This is a great whiteboard Friday that will help you understand more on this: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/whiteboard-friday-domain-authority-page-authority-metrics

Page load speed was a factor Google mentioned they take into consideration a couple of years ago, so as standard you should look into this - not just for Googles sake and the sake of your ranking, but to make the site a pleasant experiance for your users.
As I mentioned, back this up with decent content.

Hi Michael.. thank you for your answer!
I can imagine how busy the SEUmoz are everyday.. Its ok!
Thank you for the explanation about the checked area... I got it now!
About the results.. I really don't know whats going on! We've been at 1st for years and now going to 6th and going down and down!
We did focus the time the user stay online and actually is about 4~6 minutes which is very good in our segment.. and We'll try to improve that still more.
And whats is the DA and PA bytheway, Michael?
thank you so much
-
Humm... I got it..thank you... It seems like I need to do something to improve the results... We focus on the way the user uses our website, the time that the user stay navigating and things like that.. I really don't know whats going on!
But do you think that the server speed really counts at the point of setting the site to 6th?
tks

The guys at SEOmoz usually do get back to you, sometimes there is a delay as they get pretty busy.
The grey checked area - you mean the ticks in your example? This is highlighting the website that has been deemed as having the best metric of the sampled sites.
Not looked into your site, but there could be some reasons that you are in 6th even though you appear to have 'better' metrics than the sites above you.
Its also worth noting that DA, and PA are just measurements. Generally having higher scores for all three are a good indicator that you should rank higher, buts its not a guarantee.
You should focus on producing some compelling content add it to your site. Be consistent with it, and then be patient.
-
Organic rankings are based on many additional factors (server speed, engagement, usability) and so on that may not be factored in with the 4 metrics mentioned.

Hi Michael. Yes.. I've been looking for an answer but didn't get it.. I'll try to continue trying to found out.
the "gray checked" icon.. I don't know what exactly that means...

Approach to synonym keywords when you already rank in position #0 and #1
Hello community! My site cryochambers.com is ranked #0 and #1 for the most important keyword in the cryotherapy industry:
Keyword Research | | Nobody1599597270247
"cryo chamber": page A
"cryo chamber cost": page A
"cryotherapy chamber": page B A couple new keyword are also trending now:
"cryogenic" replaces "cryotherapy"

How do I find out what low-volume keywords are best to target?
Since many of our products and services are purpose-built for a niche community, I find that many of the keywords I am researching are all low-volume. Data on the Keyword Difficulty Tool show '0' under Bing Search Volume (exact match). I know what my competitors are targeting based on their title tags and web content, but I'm not sure if they did their keyword research homework, so I don't want to assume. Is there any other way to determine which keywords I should be targeting?

Best Practices For Keyword Optimization
Hey currently building a new page on a clients site in the weight loss niche. The keywords he wants to rank for are the following: <colgroup><col width="198"> <col width="64"></colgroup>
Keyword Research | | monster99
| [fat burning foods] | 49500 |
| [foods that burn fat] | 22200 |
| [fat burning foods for women] | 2900 |
| [belly fat burning foods] | 2900 |
| [best fat burning foods] | 1900 |
| [fat burning foods for men] | 1900 |
| [list of fat burning foods] | 720 | His site is new, but he has excellent content production capabilities. My question is, in terms of optimizing the page (the title and url) for these keywords would you focus on the highest volume keyword. In this case the highest volume keyword is "fat burning foods" however is the most competitive and dominated by high domain authority sites (50+ vs. clients site which is around 30). Thus its highly unlikely he will rank for that keyword for quite a while. But for the keyword term "best fat burning foods" the competition is alot less in terms of DA and other factors but volume is smaller with 1900 hits a month. So would you optimize the page (the title and url) for "best fat burning food" or would you optimize thinking about the long-term and eventually ranking the keyword "fat burning foods". My thinking would be to optimize the page for "fat burning foods". And that the benefits of optimizing (url and title) for "best fat burning foods" isn't ideal for the long-run. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated. Cheers, Mark0 -
Check large number of websites for a specific keyword (or its synonym).
I have a large list of websites, and I need to check if a specific keyword (or its synonym) is present on each of these websites. Ideally I would like to receive CSV/XML/JSON output to import the results into CRM software. I was thinking to use Google Custom Search to query each website and see if there's any results. But it charges for number of queries, and I need to test thousands of websites. Is there a way to solve this problem with SEOmoz tools? Thanks

Best Keyword Research Tool
Can anyone please recommend the best keyword research tools available, we specialise in the travel industry and struggle to find new keywords as the more niche ones always show no traffic searches in the google keyword tool so it is really difficult to make a judgement. We know from google analytics that some niche keywords really are useless and while they are no. 1 they generate no traffic. I hope you can help Thanks! Andy

How to get a quick idea of competition for large numbers of keywords
As I do a lot of keyword research for my clients, I've found the SEOmoz Keyword Difficulty tool a great way to dig deeper in the competitive data for important keywords, whenever I am at the point of choosing between a smaller number of keywords. However, in some cases I would rather have a quick idea of how competitive a large list of keywords is (for example 1000+). As the Keyword Difficulty tool has a limit of 5 per run and 300 per day, I am looking for a technique or tool to run a list of keywords and get an idea of competitiveness for each keyword. Thanks for any suggestions!
