Ranking on google search

Hello Mozzers
Moz On page grader shows A grade for the particular URL,but my page was not ranking on top 100 Google search.
Any help is appreciated ,Thanks

I'd actually recommend checking out the Moz Keyword Difficulty Tool, and the Full SERP Analysis Report it can generate. That can give you a breakdown of the factors that are most likely helping the top 10 sites for a given keyword rank, which can in turn help you work out what you'll need to do.
Cyrus Shepard made a great video on it here.

Honestly speaking there is no such tool exist that precisely let you know why you're not ranking and others are.
But in terms of backlinks comparison, you may utilize Moz analytics feature and OSE's "Compare Link Metrics" & "Link Opportunities" options.
Thanks,

The site which was ranking at no 4 and 5 does not have much optimization and backlinks but it was ranking at no 4.
Is there any tool to find out why the site is ranking at no 4 and why it is not.
Thanks

If your page secured the "A" grade in on-page, it doesn't mean you will be in top 100 now.
Various other factors including backinks, targeted traffic, technical SEO things and lots of other things are also very important.
Hope this helps!

Hi there
The page grader is great for on-page optimization for particular keywords or queries, but it doesn't necessarily guarantee rankings.
Reason being - the keywords/queries you are trying to rank for could be incredibly competitive or difficulty to rank for. Your industry SERPs could be taken over by big brand names or companies that have been around a long time with authority built in the industry.
There are a multitude of factors to consider in your ranking position:
Domain / Page Authority
Backlinks
Personalized Search Personas, Keyword Research, & Content
Schema markup opportunities
Local SEO
And a ton more...I would recommend paying attention to your Average Position in Google Search Console so that you can pay attention to how Google is ranking your site directly. Given personalized search and the factors that play into it, this is a good gauge on where you rank across multiple factors (location, device, search history, etc.)
I would also recommend you check out the multiple guides that Moz has, as well as the Moz Academy - both have tons of great resources and can get you started on the right foot to ranking for what you want to be ranking for.
Hope this helps! Good luck!

Scraped content ranking above the original source content in Google.
I need insights on how “scraped” content (exact copy-pasted version) rank above the original content in Google. 4 original, in-depth articles published by my client (an online publisher) are republished by another company (which happens to be briefly mentioned in all four of those articles). We reckon the articles were re-published at least a day or two after the original articles were published (exact gap is not known). We find that all four of the “copied” articles rank at the top of Google search results whereas the original content i.e. my client website does not show up in the even in the top 50 or 60 results. We have looked at numerous factors such as Domain authority, Page authority, in-bound links to both the original source as well as the URLs of the copied pages, social metrics etc. All of the metrics, as shown by tools like Moz, are better for the source website than for the re-publisher. We have also compared results in different geographies to see if any geographical bias was affecting results, reason being our client’s website is hosted in the UK and the ‘re-publisher’ is from another country--- but we found the same results. We are also not aware of any manual actions taken against our client website (at least based on messages on Search Console). Any other factors that can explain this serious anomaly--- which seems to be a disincentive for somebody creating highly relevant original content. We recognize that our client has the option to submit a ‘Scraper Content’ form to Google--- but we are less keen to go down that route and more keen to understand why this problem could arise in the first place. Please suggest.

Does having all client websites on same server/same Google Analytics red flag Google?
If you have several clients, and they are all on the same server, and also under ONE Google Analytics account, will that negatively impact with Google? They all have different content and addresses, some have the same template, but with different images.

Problem with description on Google search results.
A few months ago I changed the description of one of the pages on my site.
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | Tiedemann_Anselm
And I noticed that Google does not display the entire description of his search results. Description page is: "Get yourself a personalized name necklace, we offer a huge range of silver, gold and gold plated name necklaces." And Google only shows this line: "Get yourself a personalized name necklace, we offer a huge ... " Did someone have an idea why is that? 2EPSLGX.png0 -

Rank went up, But?
ok, I have been optimizing a sit for a while and decided to drop the flash site build an HTML site instead for obvious reasons. But, as I was building the new site, BANG! a big jump in Google rank? How can this be, I thought out loud. Must be all my anchor text kicking in...So, I am left with this question...Or did google pick up on my new site as I was building it. I build it on a new DNS, then revert back to the main DNS... Drop the HTML site and continue my link getting with the main site? Or chalk it up under something else and roll with new site. I hope that was not to confusing
