Is it possible to use the RankTracker to track specific location rankings?
-
We are a regional store and tracking the "global" rankings isn't super useful. We need to know what our organic rankings are for our specific market area. Is this possible with the SEOMOZ Rank tracker tool? I didn't see this option but I just wanted to check over here since it seems like it would be a pretty common issue. Thanks!

At this point the only way to use Rank Tracker for geo specific areas is only possible in terms of using the search term and appending the city/locale. Typically, I track for general term: Consumer Banks / Consumer Banks New Orleans, etc. At least this way I feel I have some level of understanding of the searches around the local vs. overall.
I have found (and we use a lot of geo specific terms) that by continuing to track for them over time, we are able to take actions that improve outcomes for our clients. So, for your store, use the local city/area added to the keywords and track it over time to gather quality data.
BTW - your use of the term Global makes me want to say that Local in the keyword tool is US. (If you knew that, I was trying to help).
I hope this helps.

What does Mozcape actually do and what types of businesses use it?
I'm making an effort to use more of the Moz tools, but some I really don't understand...Mozcape would be chief on that list. What does it do exactly and for what purpose? I read the API Wiki, but it sounds to me a lot like Open Site Explorer...but complicated...so I assume I must be missing something or why build the thing? Also, do local businesses even use this or is this more for national e-commerce sites? Thanks, Ruben

Rank Checker Tool Status
Hi I take it the Rank Checker tool is not working right yet as I'm getting bizarre ranks for some of my keywords. Some stating 50th when I know we're on the first page for instance, even using GA > search engine optimisation the averages for this term for instance is 11th across all countries. If this is the case and its still being redeveloped I'll just skip the tool for now Cheers David

On Page Ranking Tool Giving Weird Reports
My on page ranking tool is giving two entirely different reports for my website - I get one report for my domain name and a different report for the index.html even though essentially both of those pages are...well...the same. Not sure what's going on, hoping it's not an indication of a more serious issue? I appreciate any help!

What do you use for site audit
What tools do you use for conducting a site audit? I need to do an audit on a site and the seomoz web crawler and on page optimization will takes days if not a full week to return any results. In past Ive used other tools that I could run on the fly and they would return broken links, missing htags, keyword density, server information and more. Curious as to what you all use and what you may recommend to use in conjunction with the moz tools.

Seomoz toolbar - Server location
Hello, We target french countries and it seems IP server location is important. So we took some hosting at Planete Hoster (located in Canada) with French IP, but our seomoz toolbar says our website is located in Canada 😞 See: http://www.aupaindantan.fr/ Could you please explain? do we need to change the hoster and to take one in France or this one is ok? Thank you for your answer

What's been the best SERP rank tracker for you?
I do a lot of my SERP ranking tracking via Aaron Wall's Rank Checker, but I'm realizing it's taking up too much time. I was looking at Raven's tools and a few others. What's been your favorite thus far? If you do reply, can you talk about: price capabilities time savings b/c of it graphical UI other thoughts I like SEOMoz's UI, but I can only manage 5 domains and I don't have a huge budget yet. Also, if there's a rank checker out there that incorporates google places results, that would be great too! Maybe too good, eh?
