Get the keywords Google is ranking my website
-
Hi,
I'm using the Moz keyword explorer to know which keywords Google is ranking my website. It says my website is ranked just for 7 words which I find very estrange...
Any idea? If I use the google AdWords keyword explorer I get a lot more of keywords for my site. Which one should I trust to improve my seo?
Thanks,
Regards

Thanks Eli

Yep your right!
At this time, due to data limitations for international locations, you may see limited search volume data available for the country you've selected. We are working to increase our international volume data in the application, but I'm afraid we don't have an estimate for when volume data will be available for your keyword. In the meantime, I'd recommend using other tools alongside Keyword Explorer such as Google Keyword Planner and Wordstream.
If you have specific questions with regards our tools and your website, feel free to message us at help@moz.com

Many thanks Eli
So, Moz it's showing me just 7 keywords because the other keywords are too much weak or are positioning me very far from the first positions.
Then, I understand, I should pick which words I'm looking to rank and work for improve it.
Am I right?
Another topic I'm facing it's that when you access to the site it redirects you by 302 to another page depending what is your default language configuration. Example:
If you've set your browser in English does:
mywebsite.com -> mywebsite.com/en so, all the pages are mywebsite.com/en/contact; mywebsite.com/en/about-us; etc
If you've set your browser in Spanish it does:
mywebsite.com -> mywebsite.com/es so, all the pages are mywebsite.com/es/contact; mywebsite.com/es/about-us; etc
I'm checking the keywords for the Spanish site, and I've set the campaign configuration to use the Spain Google Search Engine but the keywords are just a few and in English.
I don't know if I'm missing something.
Regards.

Hey!
Thanks for reaching out to us!
Our keyword tools are only going to be showing data for keywords ranking in the top 50 spots in Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs). We do this by design because in general, most people searching on a search engine typically do not click past the 5th page of SERP results. Additionally, beyond the first 30 or so results, SERPs tend to get incredibly volatile. So, reporting on these types of fluctuations starts to be less meaningful overall, which is why we're only going to be showing you data for the areas we'd consider to be in your best interest to focus on.
Ultimately Keyword Research can take place in many forms, and many different tools (which you can trust) can be used together for you to pinpoint which Keywords to go for.
I hope that helps,
Eli

Feature Request - Consolidated Ranking "Watchlist"
Working across several campaigns I track a lot of different keywords. Not all of these keywords receive the same level of attention from me all at the same time. At the moment I use a label of "Watchlist" to track the most important keyword terms, but the limitation of this is I have to check each account separately. It might be nice and useful to have a consolidated watchlist of important keyword terms which spans across all accounts, so I can quickly see at a glance the snapshot of those most important keywords.

What is the best way to display historical ranking data?
I have utilized MOZ for years but have always struggled with a nice graph that illustrates historical ranking data for all tracked keywords. Can someone help me find the best solution for this in MOZ?

New SERP Features Cumbersome. Bring Back the Old Ranking Setup!
Does anyone else hate the new SERP Features section? Well, let me start over. I do not hate that section, I hate that that data was removed from the main rankings page. It was very convenient to be able to see that my site was ranking # for organic and also listed in the Local listings. All in one place. Now, I have to go to 2 different places to get that data. When you are tracking more than 5 keywords, going back and forth will make your head spin. (Yes, I know you can get all the data in a cv file. That's still an additional, unnecessary step when you need a quick ranking update). Also, when the local/image/video/etc. emblems were shown on the main ranking page, you could hover over the emblem and see who was ranking on the first page for that vertical. Now that data is completely gone. Suggestions for where to find this data? A bright local membership? Thanks for listening to me rant. Moz, if you are listening, please bring back the old ranking page!

Suggestion for better UX when using Rank Tracker
Hi, I'm an avid fan of the Rank Tracker tool. You enter the keyword, the url, select subdomain or exact match URL, pick your search engine, and then... Then I have to look for the country in question via an old fashioned dropdown list. Sigh... you're stealing precious seconds from me everytime, esp. considering there's not a smart search function included. Why can't I have a button right next to it, with my favorite / often used choices?

Can you add a "Show All" to Rankings Pagination?
For some reason, you've decided to paginate the Rankings page. You state the community has requested it, however I find it far less user-friendly and more time consuming. A feature that would fix it for me is to add a "Show All" link. A "Show All" is common in pagination, not sure why it was left off. Here is why I want it - supporting statement: "Since page lengths are changing, and I've exhausted keywords for one of my clients, I am going back and rewriting copy. I am choosing which pages to rewrite based ranking and they have over a couple hundred keywords so pages 1, 2, 3.....14 does me no good and takes forever to find page 10 or 9 or whatever page has the rankings that are in the 11-20 spot so I know which ones to plan for the next month. It's a valid concern. If your software slows me down over prior versions, I don't care what anyone "wanted", it's not smart."

Is it possible to view keyword rankings over the past 13 months?
The keyword rankings bar graph is a great visual representation to provide clients, but most clients like to see the past 13 months (vs. 12 months) so they can compare the current month to last year. It'd be great if the latest [monthly] keyword rankings showed all the way back to the same month last year (Ex. If I was looking at the keyword rankings for December 2015, all the way back to December 2014 would be graphed out.)

Keyword Difficulty for SERP #14?
Dear Moz-Team, i used your **Keyword Difficulty **Tool for the Top 10 Results on a keyword. Our competitor is on Rank 5. and we are at 14.

I wanted to compare all Keyword Difficulty Parameters with these two websites.
Unfortunatelly, it just allows me to compare the first 10 matches. Is there a way - maybe via your API - to compare with Ranks > 10.? Thank you very much in advance, D.L.0 -
