Weekly Keyword Ranking Report Question
-
Howdy folks!
Okay so apologies for the n00b question, and additional apologies for going over ground that's potentially already been ploughed.
I'm compiling a tally of the Weekly Keyword Ranking Report for a client. For the past three reports, the particular keyword I'm logging has remained in the same position. However the Change column shows it as having decreased in rank, by the same amount every week.
If there has been no change in the ranking, I would have thought it would display as "Unchanged". As it stands, it shows up in the Declined category, and that seems odd to me.
Anyone have an idea as to why this would be happening?
Thanks for any input you can provide!

Thanks James, Actually this was giving me results for Google Canada specifically. For three reports, the arrow went down, but the rank number remained the same. Just trying to manage damage control with the client.
Thanks for your responses!

Are you tracking rankings on all 3 engines? I've noticed something like this before where it said I was increasing or decreasing in ranking and I didn't see any change until I looked at Yahoo or Bing ranking and that's where the change was happening.

Hi James,
It's from the emailed report summary; sorry don't have an imgur account—hadn't realized you needed one to upload the screenshot. The weekly report shows you Improved, Declined and Unchanged. It's just disconcerting to see red arrows pointing downwards if the keyword hasn't actually decreased in rankings. Maybe that's just me being picky.

What do you mean by "Declined" category? Can you take a screenshot?

Can I use something like **deer wall print for your nursery **or deer wall print is perfect for in a nursery? Does it have to be exact reproduction if I am trying to rank for a long tail keyword term/phrase?

Keywords + Country?
Hey guys, Let's say that I'm doing on-site SEO for a website that sells football shirts. This website targets 5 different countries. We only have a .com domain and no other country specific domains will be added at this point. When I choose the keywords, do I opt for product name + country or only product name? football shirts france or football shirts? Some info: Countries have been added in the title of the pages. Countries appear in the footer. Thank You.

Keyword Search
Keyword search How low is too low for choosing to use a key phrase for one of your articles, website pages, etc. I see some with 100 local and global searches. Is this too low to really be spending the time working on this key phrase?

International Keyword Ranking
I want measure my ranking for keywords in various countries and search engines. If I use a tool such as rank checker to determine my rank for google.uk, google.au.com, etc... is that accurate, or does my IP still affect the rankings I see? If I use a VPS such as Hide My Ass (or another product you would recommend), would that make my ranking results more accurate? I also want to measure my ranking in Russia, where Yandex is very strong so a tool to measure my Yandex ranking + Google would be ideal. What method you would recommend to accurately determine my rankings in different countries? Thank you!
