Is there a way to know what rank my site is listed on google ?
-
My current client web page was listed at the 4th page 1 month ago. Im trying real hard to make him understand that the traffic from beiing on the first page is important and that he need to give me additionnal ressource to make it happen ( i don't prog at all). So i had the idea of checking every page to see whats is current rank. but instead of looking from page 1 to page X, i was wondering if there was something somewhere that could give me my rank right away. It woud help saving time.
Thx.

Thx for all those quick answer
After searching for a bit, i end up on this site: http://www.seocentro.com/tools/search-engines/keyword-position.html
which seems to indicate the correct position of keyword. I compare it whit the keyword i had in my campagne manager and even if its not always look accurate (campagne manager and this site), it at least give me a little hint of futur keyword for quick lookup at least.
Again, thx you all.

I'd highly recommend the campaign manager with SEOMoz. It takes a few days to crawl everything, but you can very easily identify some low hanging fruit really quickly.
It makes you look really good!

I use Market Samurai for rank tracking. You can use it to generate all possible keywords that your client may (or is trying to) rank for and then import those keywords in to the rank tracker module. It keeps a full history of all rank checks and placements. It's a handy tool.
-
Setting up keywords to track versus a specific page is pretty easy to do through SEOmoz' campaign tracker (other SERPs tracking software is available).
However if you already have webmaster tools set up you can go into 'Your site on the web > Search queries' and there will be an 'avg. position' for where Google thinks you rank. It's not super accurate though.

Hey,
If I understand your question properly, you're basically trying to find out where your clients web page is for certain keywords in the search engines without having to go through Google / Bing / Yahoo one by one and click through each page to find it?
If thats right, then there are a few tools:
-
SEOMoz has a fantastic rank tracker that allows you to export as a PDF / CSV file that you can send direct to the client. It'll track when you go up and down in the search engines and they'll be able to see their ranking positions.
-
I personally use "Rank Tracker" which is part of the SEO Powersuite. You can schedule tasks on a daily / weekly / monthly basis and track against your competitiors. You can have unlimited keywords, track it against your google analytics. You can also look at your KEI for each keyword, number of searches and generate reports direct for the client. It's really easy to use and the only downside is that it isn't hosted so you have to be accessing the files on your PC / Mac in the same place each time.
I don't know of any free tools that are actually any good at the moment so maybe someone else can help with that, but I use to the twwo tools above. They're fantastic and It should help to show your client where they are in the SERPs on a monthly basis.
Your question could be interpreted in another way, which would be seeing if each page is actually indexed. You can do that in Google webmaster tools, or by typing site:www.example.com into google. That will show all indexed pages in the search engine.
Again, SEOmoz has a great tool for helping with that
Hope that helps!

Same Meta description is being shown on Google?
Not sure why this is happening but when you this command into Google site:"mywebsite": + "key phrase" It brings up pages from my website which have the key phrase but I have noticed that Google is using the wrong meta description for all of them even though these pages all have their own unique meta description Does anyone know why this would be happening? Thanks

Does a KML file have to be indexed by Google?
I'm currently using the Yoast Local SEO plugin for WordPress to generate my KML file which is linked to from the GeoSitemap. Check it out http://www.holycitycatering.com/sitemap_index.xml. A competitor of mine just told me that this isn't correct and that the link to the KML should be a downloadable file that's indexed in Google. This is the opposite of what Yoast is saying... "He's wrong. 🙂 And the KML isn't a file, it's being rendered. You wouldn't want it to be indexed anyway, you just want Google to find the information in there. What is the best way to create a KML? Should it be indexed?

Google doesnt index my Google+ Profile
Hey guys! I know it sounds like a novice question, but I have checked ALL THE BOXES THAT TELL GOOGLE TO INDEX MY GOOGLE+ PROFILE. It is Visible for search - 100%. It's been 3 weeks since I opened a Google+ profile and it still hasn't been indexed for its name. Any guesses what's going on? (It's not this name so don't try to google me)

Would Google Remove Pages for Inactivity?
Hi, I've been watching the Total Indexed number for 4 domains that I work with for the last few months. In Google Webmaster Tools three of them were holding steady up until August-September, when suddenly they started declining by hundreds of thousands of URLs a week. I've asked my IT department and they say they haven't done anything technically different in the last few months that would affect indexation. I've also searched on google and on search marketing blogs to see if anyone else has experience this to no avail. As you can see in the image, the "Not Selected" pages have not increased so it appears this is not due to duplicate content (of which we have a lot). However, the "Ever Crawled" number is increasing. The only reasonable answer that I can conclude is that Google is now de-indexing inactive URLs? Anyone have a better answer? yIYDm.jpg

How do I rank higher in Bing/Yahoo?
We are doing really well across the board on Google, but having issues in ranking with Bing and Yahoo. What is different between the three search engines? I have read a few articles that Bing is happier with Flash, and they are more interested in Top Level Domain links, but what else is different? In Google we are sitting on page one for most terms, but are page 2-3 in Bing/Yahoo for the exact same terms. Any help would be appreciated!

Is it normal to receive 2 mails from Google?
I filed a reconsideration request that was answered in less than a week. Subsequently I was told that no manual penalty was in place but various algorithm factors might be causing my heavy drops in ranking. Then I got a second email which was even more specific. This was great, really heartening stuff and a total surprise as it was very helpful. Is it normal to receive 2 emails from Google with such clear information? I have been very pleased by the comments they have made as it has shown me that they're more customer focused than I had been led to believe by all the research I had done pre reconsideration request. Has anyone else had a clear outline of what they needed to fix and has their site subsequently rebounded post fixing?

What do you think of Google SERP encryption?
Really interesting post by Search Engine Land about this "issue" for tracking conversion, especially for long tail keyword research. I suppose this change will be also applied on all google search pages (.ca, .fr etc.). I Really don't think Webmaster tools is a serious compensation in Analytics for this.
