What's the best way to track broad search terms?
-
I'm finding out that Moz only tracks exact match results for key terms. Does anyone know of a good tool for tracking broad search terms? So for example: keyword1 keyword2 keyword3 as opposed to "keyword1 keyword2 keyword3"?
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!-David

Okay got it! Thank you!

I believe if you just set it up, it will run report next day (or in two days), but then it's gonna be weekly. I don't think there is a way to force to update reports.
-
Ahh! I bet that's it! I did have http://lashgroup.com in originally and then changed it but not until that report had been generated. Good eye! So can I initiate another report or do I need to wait another week or whatever?
-
Alright, i think i found your problem.
Do you have lashgroup campaign set up for http://lashgroup.com?
instead of http://www.lashgroup.com? Do you have proper redirects from non-www to www version (or vice versa)?
Check screenshots.
P.S. As far as i understand, moz is looking for exact match of domain when retrieving rankings for your reports. so, www and non-www make a lot of difference.

I am looking at a report from a campaign but I don't think it's a time based error. I think Lashgroup has been #1 position for these search terms for quite a while.
-
Are you checking moz's rank tracker or ranking report in campaign?
If it's in campaign, then it might be due to weekly updates - rankings are not updated every day, so 51+ rank might be from previous week (or even month if you're looking at monthly report).
-
Hmm..
I tried to recreate the results you're talking about and here is what i get:
chrome - ranks #1
moz - ranks #1

Well, hopefully this provides more details: We have Lashgroup in as one of our competitors and for the keyword phrase: "copay program providers" moz.com is saying that Lashgroup is 51+ although when searching that phrase in Chrome using incognito I see a link to the Lasgroup website as the #1 link in the search results page. So...what's up with that? Am I missing something?

Hello, my friend.
I think you are mistaken. Moz, indeed, tracks rankings for broad match. And it makes sense, since users usually google without putting any google search operators (like double quotes).
And here is the proof: I have two searches for how car fast - broad and exact. I used nonsense phrase on purpose. Then i went to moz rank tracker and did the same search. The results show that MOZ does indeed broad search.
See screenshots attached.

So exact match for you is "copay program providers"
You then want to track each word on its own? or are you trying to work out the long trail options?
As I'm just trying to work out what bored search teams for you is.
-
Oh sure! Here you go: copay program providers
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm just trying to work this out a little more. Can you give a sample of keywords you want as exact match and broad?
This post on moz is really good but it will take time and work within Google Analytics but again if you can give me an example of what you're trying to track it will help alot.

Why isn't the Moz crawler getting all of my item pages?
I am stumped and Moz is being terrible to work with. This site has about 40k pages 39,800 of them are item pages roughly. Moz is only finding about 2400 of my pages. So they are missing most but not all of my item pages. I do not know which item pages they are missing. The fact that they are finding about 2k but not the rest leads me to believe the crawler is struggling with pagination. The site is built on Magento 2 and uses the Amasty Layered Navigation extension. Does anyone have any ideas?

Is there any way to automatically filter negative keywords out of Keyword Explorer results?
I use Keyword Explorer a LOT for fleshing out new campaigns. However, the results I get frequently contain queries with words that are in my negative keyword lists. Today, I solve this with export and some Excel wizardry but keep thinking how convenient it would be if there was a way to provide a list upfront of negative keywords and get pre-scrubbed results. Does this exist? If not, how can I escalate this as a feature request? 🙂

Moz ranking report shows massive loss in Bing SERP's. But it is not the case?
My weekly ranking report shows massive loss of SERP's on Bing. For most keywords I was no longer in the top 50 which where first top 5. But when I checked it out for myself, I'm still ranked top 5 for these keywords. I then used the Moz Rank Tracker and there it also says I'm still ranking top 5 for these keywords. What should I believe now?

Since the revised website was launched, I can't find the "Crawl Test" function showing Titles and Descriptions of other websites. Anyone know where that link is located?
MOZ can "crawl" any website and show information like Title, Description, etc.....Can't find that link.
