Geo / Location-Based Local or City Level Rank Tracking in SEOmoz
-
Is location-based rank tracking going to be a feature in SEOmoz any time soon? I've seen in a few other company's tools that I can select a city in which to center the search around, for example... if I track the keyword "pizza" and set it to check rankings for "Seattle", it would give me different results than I've I selected "Milwaukee".
The reason for the variation in results is due to maps listings in the results sometimes.
So, my question is, will location-based rank tracking be coming to SEOmoz soon?

Hi Scott,
I wanted to let you and the rest of the people on this thread know that we now can track local rankings! Check out our post at http://moz.com/blog/local-rankings-in-moz-analytics.

Scott,
Thanks for writing in! With the acquisition of getlisted.org we are looking to provide a more robust and seamless experience for our local search SEOs, however we have features in the rankings tool in your campaign that you can utilize now for your reporting needs.
Let's take your pizza shop example. If you wanted to search for how you rank in Seattle for pizza, you would simply have to tailor your keyword as this format: KW + Geotag. In your pizza example it would just be "Pizza Seattle" or "Seattle Pizza shop", our tool will record your results and show Universal placements. You can find more information regarding this topic here: http://www.seomoz.org/help/rankings. One thing to note is if your SERP comes up as a local enhanced result (i.e. Google local), it won't be counted as a numeric result but rather a Universal placement tag on your historical information. Since our tool don't consider these results to be a traditional SERP, thus we don't display it as a numeric SERP on your report.
Hope that helps, let me know if you have any questions regarding Universal placements by replying this thread or by emailing help@seomoz.org!
Best,
Peter

I'm not a part of the SEOmoz staff or Dev team (I play one on tv though) but from the acquisition of GetListed.org and David Mihm saying over and over that the Web App is going to have some dramatic changes in the coming months I would say yes. Check out the first paragraph in one of David's most recent blog posts. I'm really looking forward to the full integration of GetListed.org data and tools.

404 errors in SEOMoz crawl tool
I currently have several 404 errors in the latest crawls from SEOMoz. Here is an example of the error. http://dealerplatform.com/blog/2011/10/23/videos-for-auto-dealers/www.dealerplatform.com/ In all cases the error is a result of www.dealerplatform.com being added to the real url. Anyone seen this before? The site is a wordpress mutlisite. I don't see where this incorrect link is showing up anywhere on the website. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks
