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!

Google Cache
So, when I gain a link I always check to see if the page that is linking is in the Google cache. I've noticed recently that more and more pages are actually not showing up in Google's cache, yet still appear in search results. I did read an article from someone whoo works at Google a few weeks back that there is sometimes an error with the cache and occasionally the cache will not display. This week, my own website isn't showing up in the cache yet I'm still ranking in SERP's. I'm not worried about it, mostly whitehat, but has there been any indication that Google are phasing out the ability to check cache's of websites?

Ranking drops POST Penguin?!
Hey guys, I've noticed that one of our sites have seen some considerable ranking drops for competitive keywords at least a week or so after Penguin was introduced. I've attached an image to give you a better idea of what I'm talking about. We were ranked around 2nd page for each of the phrases but plummeted to 80+ (although, there has been some movement back towards 50). I mention Penguin but that really shouldn't have been a factor with this site as it's a relatively new one and all the links have been built naturally. Any help appreciated! GGsL8xk.png

New feature on the SERPs - anyone know what this is!?
Hey guys, I've just been doing a bit of searching to give the new Penguin update a good going over and came across the following result on the right side of the page. As you can see, it's a link to the site that's sitting at the top of the SERP. At first, however, I thought it was some snazzy AdWords feature. Although, having clicked into the link "20 hours ago", it seems that Google has pulled the snippet from the diy-kitchens.com's Google+ feed. Anyone seen this before? Is it a new thing? Is it only the top result that's able to get a snippet from Google+? 7hA4g49.png

New Zealand rankings - Is Google taking city into account now?
I've just noticed over the last 24 hours that Google New Zealand seems to be taking city into account with the search results - when I search from Christchurch - I get CHCH companies and Auckland results when searching from Auckland. I would like to rank my client nationally - any tips? Has anyone else noticed this? I need to be the top of Google for my keyword throughout the country. Any articles that could help? Kind regards, David

Do you think Google is destroying search?
I've seen garbage in google results for some time now, but it seems to be getting worse. I was just searching for a line of text that was in one of our stories from 2009. I just wanted to check that story and I didn't have a direct link. So I did the search and I found one copy of the story, but it wasn't on our site. I knew that it was on the other site as well as ours, because the writer writes for both publications. What I expected to see was the two results, one above the other, depending on which one had more links or better on-page for the query. What I got didn't really surprise me, but I was annoyed. In #1 position was the other site, That was OK by me, but ours wasn't there at all. I'm almost used to that now (not happy about it and trying to change it, but not doing well at all, even after 18 months of trying) What really made me angry was the garbage results that followed. One site, a wordpress blog, has tag pages and category pages being indexed. I didn't count them all but my guess is about 200 results from this blog, one after the other, most of them tag pages, with the same content on every one of them. Then the tag pages stopped and it started with dated archive pages, dozens of them. There were other sites, some with just one entry, some with dozens of tag pages. After that, porn sites, hundreds of them. I got right to the very end - 100 pages of 10 results per page. That blog seems to have done everything wrong, yet it has interesting stats. It is a PR6, yet Alexa ranks it 25,680,321. It has the same text in every headline. Most of the headlines are very short. It has all of the category and tag and archive pages indexed. There is a link to the designer's website on every page. There is a blogroll on every page, with links out to 50 sites. None of the pages appear to have a description. there are dozens of empty H2 tags and the H1 tag is 80% through the document. Yet google lists all of this stuff in the results. I don't remember the last time I saw 100 pages of results, it hasn't happened in a very long time. Is this something new that google is doing? What about the multiple tag and category pages in results - Is this just a special thing google is doing to upset me or are you seeing it too? I did eventually find my page, but not in that list. I found it by using site:mysite.com in the search box.

Bounce rate and rankings
I have believed for years that a high bounce rate (from search) could lower your rankings over time. Makes sense; if users bounce right back to search after looking at your page Google should think that page wasn't very useful and will push your down the SERPs. But, how do they determine this? If a user comes back after 30 seconds that's a bounce? Or is my premise incorrect and Google does not take bounce into account? Erin
