Google Analytics shows wrong position
-
1 For a particular targeted keyword Google Analytic shows Avg position as 20 for 10 Impresions . On the other hand other Tools like Rank Tracker/Authority Labs shows no Ranking at all . When I Manually check Google results, that particular page is not listed at all in Google Search for that particular keyword in Top 400 search Results.
Its almost 30-40 days back done Optimization for that keyword, no Keyword stuffing (2%) or nothing blackhat. Keyword has just 300+ search per month . MOZ and other Tools like MyWebsite Auditor shows no major issues with On Page SEO , overall good score for onpage SEO .
Any one has any ideas as why this happens or happened to someone before .
Thanks

I would try searching your site like site:yourdomain.com in Google to make sure you're indexed. Check your robots.txt and your meta robots tag to ensure you aren't blocking the page for some reason. Then check that it's linked to that page in your site via links that are not nofollow.
After that it would mainly depend on competitiveness, depth of the competitor sites and link building, title & onsite SEO. I can take a look if you post the URL or if it's private, PM me.

Thanks for your answer Matt.
Page not even listed in Google at all for a less competitive keyword like 400 search, inspite being Onpage Optimized for that keyword is that something normal as well ?

It's actually not the wrong position. Someone, for some reason, saw it at that spot. It could be that you have a few Google+ connections or the keywords are hyperlocal and thus someone who's VERY close to the target location could find it? Whatever it is, I always see these type of confusing scenarios in my reports. I once had searches for "facebook" coming to me but it ended up my 1000 Google+ fans were seeing it after I wrote a post about Facebook advertising and linked it. I was ranking #2 (on their computer) for the word Facebook. lol

Massive Google Search Spam
We have come to know that one of competitors of our client is spamming Google search results on massive scale. If we search with keywords like "iphone spy apps" , "text messages spy " etc then most of results from 3rd or 4th page onwards show totally irrelevant sites but when we click on those results/pages then all redirect to either http://topspysoft.com/ OR http://www.mspy.com/ . They have been doing it on massive scale for last few months against hundreds of queries and populating hundreds of search results. If use some country specific Google site then again hundreds of results come from totally irrelevant country specific domains (au,nz,uk etc) and they all redirect to topspysoft.com or mspy.com. Can you please tell how they are doing it and how they are able to do it on such a massive scale without getting noticed by Google ? Is there any way to report this issue to Google as the current only allows one link ? Following are some of the spam urls to give you an idea www.crcincva.com/doc/20-best-iphone-spy-apps/

Webmaster Tools Showing Bad Links Removed Over 60 Days Ago
Hello, One of my clients received the notorious message from Google about unnatural links late last March. We've removed several hundred (if not thousands) of links, and resubmitted several times for reconsideration, only to continue with responses that state that we still have unnatural links. Looking through the "links to your site" in google webmaster tools, there are several hundred sites / pages listed, from which we removed our link over 60 days ago. If you click each link to view the site / page, they contain nothing, viewable or hidden, regarding our website / address. I was wondering if this (outdated / inaccurate) list is the same as the one their employees use to analyze the current status of bad links, and if so how long it will take to reflect up-to-date information. In other words, even though we've removed the bad links, how long do we need to wait until we can expect a clean resubmission for reconsideration. Any help / advice would be greatly appreciated -

Can Using Google Analytics Make You More Prone to Deindexation?
Hi, I'm aggressively link building for my clients using blog posts and have come upon information that using Google Analytics (as well as GWT, etc.) may increase my chance of deindexation. Anyone have any thoughts on this topic? I'm considering using Piwik as an alternative if this is the case. Thanks for your thoughts, Donna
