Keyword Analysis ranking is not according to google
-
I'm confused with Keyword Analysis tool because when i run it it show me like this:
Keywords: Alpaca Scarves
Rank
1. page1
2 page2
3 page3
4 page4
Rank 1: page1
p. authority: 26, page linking root domains: 2 domain autority: 31 root domain linking root domains: 33
Rank 4: page4
p. authority: 26, page linking root domains: 2 domain autority: 45 root domain linking root domains: 232
I think that the rank 4 should be in the 1.
can you help me to understand it?

Hi Alfredo,
Keyword rank in google depends on many factors. PA, DA and others are only measures using to compare specific factors. You can read about them here: link and other MOZ Metrics from right-menu.
It is possible that page with really poor measures/ranks have good position in SERP's. If you have niche searches, one good article can shoot up in the rankings.

New Keyword Planning Tool
In the past we have used google analytics keyword tool to evaluate a keyword for our campaign. Recently though with the changes to the keyword tool becoming the keyword planning tool we've seen an extreme fluctuation in the metrics provided for avg monthly searches. Specifically the keyword "best fries" used to be reported at 33100 avg global monthly searches, now with the new tool its at less than 200 overall for the month. Additional information has the google trends for the keyword to only be increasing and is roughly near peak search interest. So I guess to simplify the question, should I trust this metric? Is there an alternative source I can use for keyword research? Why would a drop like this happen? Why isn't the google trends data similar to that of the keyword data? Surely 100 representing peak interest doesn't translate to 200 searches a month.

Keyword Moderator List
Hi Moz Community, I'm wondering if anyone has a comprehensive list of keyword moderators that they could share? For example: online
Keyword Research | | IrishTimes
buy [keyword] online
cheap
cheapest
best
top
free
[country name]
[area name]
store
shop
purchase etc... I always find that it's useful to run [keyword + moderator] for search volumes as it sometimes uncovers some exact match surprises that you may not have thought of. Thanks everyone! Gavin1 -

Invisible Long Tail Keywords
I've been doing some research on SEOmoz and have seen some posts relating to invisible long tail keywords. I have a couple of questions relating to this: Am I correct to understand that an invisible long tail keyword won't show any search in a tool like the Google Keyword Tool? If not, how do you define it? If an invisible long tail keyword has almost no search (or search that can be proven by an SEO researcher), how can you be confident that it will produce results?
