Keywords Rankings-Change-Bug?
-
Bug? or just because the change happened beyound the Top 50 within Bing & Yahoo SERPs?
The Keyword Ranking for in the example "dry desulfurization" shows a change of >40 up, but the history (Google) does not show these changes.
May be, it is that the change was within Yahoo and Bing Rankings, and because the keyword is not showing up within the Top 50, I just can't see? ... but Rogerbot is considering.
Thanks for any response

Hi Holger,
Sorry for the confusion! I took a look at your campaign and this is not related to your Bing & Yahoo rankings for that keyword, because the site is not ranking in the top 50 for those two search engines. This is actually a bit of a bug.
What happened is that, for some reason, the rankings did not update correctly for this keyword last week on 4/20 as they should have so the "change" filter sees that as the site dropping out of the top 50 and then showing up back at 10 in the next update. If the ranking for that keyword had updated correctly, you would see a break in the line graph rather than the connected dots between the 4/13 and 4/27 updates. I believe that this keyword is missing the update for the 4/20 rankings because we will update rankings as long as we have information for 95% of the keywords. Since this is the only keyword that seems to be affected by the issue, it means that we weren't able to pull data for that one keyword but we did have data for all the other keywords so the system updated the information.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Domain Change
What is the average organic traffic loss one can expect after switching to a new domain? We went from .com to .org and are seeing 50% decline in organic traffic and 25% in Google news traffic. 301s were implemented from site.com/some-page to site.org/some-page and change site was completed in WMT. This traffic drop seems excessive...

Keyword rankings for new website good in Yahoo and Bing but no movement in Google?
Hello, This past September I launched a new redesigned website for a client. His old website was a static html site that was many years old and the new website was created using WordPress. With the new design we made sure to use all the proper techniques for SEO. (h1 tages, image names, quality links, page titles, etc.) Plus, all the content is new content written for this site. I've actually launched new sites many times and after a few months usually start seeing keyword ranking improvements from the major search engines. With this particular website I'm seeing improvements in Yahoo and Bing but no movement in Google. I've used Google Webmaster Tools and made sure my sitemap is being submitted, etc. It all seems good, but I can't understand why Yahoo and Bing are working but nothing from Google. My page grades are all A's and B's and Moz isn't showing any big issues. Maybe I need to give it more time? This client is a lawyer and has many websites out there so maybe he's being penalized somewhere I don't know? As I mentioned, I've been doing SEO for about 8 years and have never had this much trouble with Google. I was wondering if you can look at the site and see if there are any glaring issues I'm missing. Website: http://www.arizonamedicalmalpractice.info/ The keyword phrases were are looking at are "Phoenix Medical Malpractice Lawyer", "Phoenix Medical Malpractice Attorney:, "Arizona Medical Malpractice Lawyer & Attorney", etc. I appreciate anyone who takes the time and does a quick look over. Thanks very much, Bill

Keywords in Vanity URL
If I set up a vanity URL that just 301's to the main site, do the search engines look at the keywords in the vanity URL when determing how to rank the site. For example, if I set up a vanity URL of www.coolnewtechgear.com, and redirect it to www.company.com/products/, would the search engines view the keywords of cool, new, tech, and gear and associate that with the page it's getting redirected to? Or does it ignore the vanity URL and only look at the content of the page itself?
