How to change the compare date range on the keyword rankings report?

[Brandon_Clay]

I'm new to SEO Moz, but not to SEO. I like SEOMoz's keyword rankings, but I also like to show clients improvement (hopefully) from the previous months' ranks. The default appears to be 1-week. How can you show improvement/decline from the previous month?

I agree Brandon. I think Raven Tools had something like this before thir Rank Tracker went belly up. Who knows, maybe SEOMoz will add it in the future, but considering the reduction of importance on tracking specific keywords, developing it may not be at the top of their "to do" list.

Thanks for the info, Dana. Seems like that's something that SEOMoz could do - at least that's how all the other solutions I've used before have worked. Oh well.

Hi Brandon,

In your Ranking reports screen in the upper right there is a dropdown box with Export options. The very last one on the list is 'Export complete ranking history to CSV."  It take a little while if you have a lot of keywords, but once the report is generated you are automatically emailed with a link for the file download. Hope that helps!

P.S. If you then want to take that data and make it beautiful for your client(s), here are two rocking posts from two people who I admire greatly:
