Organic Competition Assessment Tool Recommendation Please
-
Hi,
What tool do you recommend (and why) for best assessing your organic search competition's keywords AND that includes some kind of reasonably accurate estimate of what organic search traffic they are getting by specific page or keyword?
Thanks... Darcy

Hi Mike,
Thanks, I'll check out SEMRush. Let's see what else gets suggested. I've used a lot of different tools that have a traffic estimate component and generally am unimpressed when I compare to reality (even after adding for "Not Provided.")
Here, you have to get the terms/pages and estimate, which is a little more than just a keyword estimate.
Anyone like any other organic competitor analysis tools?
I'll check out SEMRush though. Thanks... Darcy

Hi Darcy,
For assessing your competitors, I have heard that SEMRush.com is the way to go. I have only used the trial of it (which I found simply OK); however, I have been assured by some SEO authorities that the paid for version gives you A LOT more information.
As far as if you wanted to check the organic searches that your website is receiving or keywords that your site "may" rank high for, you can use Google Webmaster Tools > Search Queries will give you the information for your own site.
Hope this helps.
Mike

Where is the link prospecting tool?
I feel like last year when Moz was still SEOMoz I used a beta tool that would help you build a bunch of queries for link prospecting. You would tell it what your sites about and a few other pieces of information, and it would give you a list of google queries to get you started (ie inurl:directory <industryname> +"add site"</industryname>). However, I'm having a hard time finding this tool, or any reference to it on the web. It's also possible that it wasn't a moz tool but I'm misremembering where I found it. Does anybody have any idea what I'm talking about?

Keyword rankings tool not fully populated today?
I logged in today and my rankings are normally crawled on Thurs, and of my 66 keywords only 6 of them are showing any data - the rest are all blank. It's been going for weeks so it's not like it doesn't have it's initial data yet. I presume this is some issue or artifact that the results haven't been input yet. Can someone help answer this?

SEOmoz Report: Competitive Domain Analysis
Hi there, According to SEOmoz Dashboard's Competitive Domain Analysis, the 'Total Links' for our domain shot up (more than quatripled) in the last few weeks. We haven't really done much link building in over 6 months so not sure how to explain this. Did SEOmoz make updates to their bots? Could it be that the bots are finding all these links only now? We've been using SEOmoz reporting for almost a year now, and I've never seen this before. Some insight / explanation for this would be great. Thanks in advance,

Adding LinkedIn to the new Social Media tool
I am loving the new Social Media data that SEOMoz recently added. I am sure more will come soon, but I wondering if they have plans of adding LinkedIn Company pages as apart of a campaign to track. Does anyone have the inside clue about this? Do you think it would be a good idea as well?

Competitive Domain Analysis
In one of my campaigns, competitive domain analysis shows that the total links is always the same as ext. followed links. This can't be right as the site has both external links and internal links. What would be the possible issue here? Thanks for sharing your insight.
