Majestic gives me a 24 situation and 24 trust flow. Seomoz just a total number of 7\. How come the difference? My ranking is still bad, so is Majestic crawling faster then google?
-
Hi, my total domain value number on SEOmoz is 7. In Majestic it is 24 situation and 24 trust flow. My ranking is still bad (page2) and my competitors have a lower trust/ situation flow in Majestic. But in Seomoz the're better.
Is the conclusion that Majestic is more up to date then Google itself and that Seomoz is more inline with the google crawling? Because Majestic doesnt reflect my ranking.
(ps I started with the domain for a month, and I only have some history in registration)

It looks like Google hasn't re-cached that page since you were added:
So, the links may just not have taken effect yet.
-
haha too bat. A link from home at Seomoz would help
The link is on there partner website: http://www.topmba.com/qs-world-mba-tour/partners but we have over 30 links frome serveral good domains.
-
Argh... sorry, I meant "happy to look" (not "link") - my typos are the worst I was curious what page on TopMBA.com had the link, so that I could help assess any quality issues.

Hi Peter thanks again. Its a website in the Netherlands:
www.goedkoopsteautoverzekering.net which means cheapest car insurance in the Neterlands. The main keyword is "goedkoopste autoverzekering". A link would be great!
-
Ah, sorry - yeah a DA=7 and an mR=7 are very different
We're getting new indexes about every couple of weeks now, I think, but it depends not only on the domain, but on how deep the page is in the domain and what the quality is of that page. Some pages, even on good domains, don't carry much weight.
Also keep in mind that, even once Google has cached it, the impact of a handful of links is rarely immediate or even noticeable. It's much more complex than that, so ultimately you've got to keep doing what you're doing. It doesn't really matter what our stats say or Majestic's stats if you're not ranking. In other words, don't build a few links and then sit around waiting for the metrics to update. Keep rolling forward.
If you want to post a sample link, I'd be happy to look, but I realize this question is public, so I'm not sure if that's viable for you.

Thanks for the reply.
its not the Mozrank but the Domain autority which is 7. The PA is 1. But I have several high quality links. For example from topmba.com. What is the delay of Seomoz/ opensite explorer to get these links crawled? Shall I just use Google cache memory date/time to know when Google last indexed my site?
-
Our general opinion (obviously, we're biased) is that the SEOmoz stats are better at tracking high-quality links, but the Majestic stats are fresher and track recent links better - if I had to over-simplify it. When you say your "domain value number" is 7, do you mean MozRank? What are your DA/PA stats like?
Keep in mind that, regardless of which numbers you use, these are only two pieces of the ranking puzzle, which has hundreds of factors. Our MozRank and MozTrust are analogous to Google PageRank and TrustRank, but there are many other factors in link quality and there are many ranking factors that have nothing to do with links.
If your site is only a month old, it's even harder to get a clear picture, as Google may still be assessing you. Your ranking could move a lot in the next few weeks.
One of our community members recently wrote a post that's a pretty good introduction to other ranking factors:

Difficult to pinpoint competitive differences
Hi moz, Im currently working with a client that has a number of affiliates that work under similar URLs but operate independently. For example I work with client.com and we are concerned about SEO and ranking competition from affilate1.client.com, affiliate2.client.com etc. As it stands right now, the domain client.com has a higher DA, the homepage has a higher PA, and the equity passing links, both internal and external are much higher as well as number of linking domains, yet for whatever reason for many of the keywords we attempt to optimize for, the smaller affiliates often rank higher. The only things ive been able to pinpoint is that affiliate1.client.com has a spam score of 2 (rather than 4, for client.com) and the homepage has more total links. External anchor text is pretty branded across the web so i can't imagine it playing into keyword associations. Lastly the sites are constructed and appear very similar so basic on page keyword best practices have been taken care of. We worry that because affiliate.client.com has been at the SEO game longer, in addition to Google only linking two sites from a domain per search, we will never be able to rank for the keywords we want to rank for. How else can I go about a competitive analysis if I've taken into account everything said above? Any help will be very appreciated.

How does my competitor website jump from a natural ranking of 10 to 1 in a matter of days?
OK this has really got me baffled, and I really hope the MOZ community can give me the answers I am seeking.... My statements and queries below are my own opinions and thoughts. I am not an experienced SEOer and I am learning all the time, so if I have written something incorrectly, please feel free to correct me 🙂 I have been told that natural rankings take time, and I have read with the recent algorithm changes from Google, that purchased links do not have an effect like they used to. I have also read somewhere that google has clamped down on bogus article writing (MOZ please clarify) But what I am seeking some clarification on is, how does my competitors website, that has had a natural rank of #1 in the past, suddenly drop off; for a lengthy period of time, then suddenly re-appear at #10 on page #1, then some three/four days later, hit #1? I have read that natural rankings are purely natural. I.e. a domain owner cannot pay google to boost their natural ranking. But is this really true? Why is it when I speak to a close colleague of mine in the same industry, he mentions that his maps listing has dropped off, and after making a couple of phone calls to his SEO guys in India, maybe a day or two later, magically his maps re-appear? I really am starting to question is a "natural ranking" really "natural?" I have heard that some of these SEO agencies do have some tools that dramatically effect the natural ranking of a domain. What are these tools?

Using Semantic Language to rank, how much stock do you put into this? (LSI)
In theory, analyzing the top results for a given phrase and comparing the common words and phrases would indicate what google considers relative language to the query. Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) was and still is a buzz phrase for some SEOs. But how much stock do you give to the idea that if you can determine the common language for top rankers and then duplicate that language and density of common words that your website will then rank for that query you desire? Has anyone here tested the theory of using semantic language from the results themselves to better rank?

Keyword Search - another site bypassed me and they are not ranked well...
I was trying to optimize the keywords "music for kids" . This is a no brainer because my URL is "musicforkids" My On-Page Report Card for "music for kids" gives my site a "A". The on page report card for the other site gets an "F". But the other site comes up number ONE in the organic Google search and my site comes up number three. The two sites above me receive a crappy on page Keyword report for the key words "music for kids" but they still come up above me for that search term. What's the deal?

Good tools to compare site speed on different sites?
Google tells me that my site is slower than 81% of the internet.Now this is a very large news website, so I would like to compare this against other very large news websites. Are there any tools that will be able to tell me the speed of a list of websites? I am looking for something a little more detailed than 'this site loaded in 1 second'. Also, do any of you fellow SEOs know of any good tools to analyse what is causing your site to slow down? Kind regards

How is this page ranking so high?
I have been using OSE, and I have come across a few sites that rank within the top 5 for VERY competitive keywords and seem to have NO inbound links to the page. Am I overlooking something? For example, Keyword: floor lamps Page: www.lampsplus.com/products/floor-lamps/

How can a site rank higher when you beat them by A LOT on virtually every SEOMOZ factor?
Any insight into what's driving these results would be appreciated. Another site ranks #6 and we rank #22 on a keyword that scores 67% for "Keyword Difficulty", but we score significantly higher than them on almost every ranking factor including having nearly 10 times more backlinks along with higher PA and DA scores,etc. Here is a comparison from the Keyword Difficulty Tool report. Question: What could be going on? Factor and ranking comparison (us v. them) with our higher rankings are listed first. PA: 61 v. 39, mozRank 5,85 v. 4,54, mozTrust 6.00 v. 5.49, mT/mR = 1.0 v. 1.2, total links = 4,198 v. 90, internal links = 4198 v 90, external links = 275 v. 57, followed links = 4171 v 85, no follow links = 27 v 5, linking root domains = 46 v 30 on-page grade = A v B broad keyword usage in title: yes v yes broad keyword usage in document: yes v yes keyword used in url = no v no keyword used in domain = partial v no KW exact match - no v no exact anchor text links = 2373 v 13 %links w/ exact anchor text = 56% v 14% linking root domains w/ exact anchor text = 7 v 8 % linking root domains w/ exact anchor text = 15% v 26% partial anchor text links = 0 v 0 Domain Authority = 54 v 27 Domain mozRank = 5.4 v 3.2 Domain mozTrust = 5.8 v 3.7 DmT/DmR = 1.1 v 1.2 External links to domain 9261 v 63 Linking root domains to this domain = 355 v 33 linking c- blocks domains to domain = 267 v 30 tweets = 4 v 3 FB shares = 13 v 11 Google Plus one shares = 1 v 0
