Started my first campaign - keyword rankings do not match
-
Hello,
I started my first campaign on SEOmoz and my keword position do not match the results I receive by using google search or by using another SEO program.
For example - Ingersoll Watches should be on position 6 on google.com - SEOmoz shows me Ingersoll Watches is on 16.
Why does SEOmoz show different results?
Thank you for your attention!

awesome, glad i could help!

Thank you for your answer - I tried all the possible tools for datacenter google search - none worked but I am sure now this is the problem.

Another possibility is that your rankings reports may be pulling from different google data centers while geo-location and local results compound the problem. For example, SEOmoz may be pulling from different data center than your other tool - while your location will play a role in the shuffling of results as well. Although, in my experience, I believe geo has more impact on different rankings than synch issues between data centers now that Google is placing more local biz in the results up front. Run a ranking report test with both tools from the same data center as well as the same geo and review the results ...

Let me know if this helps.

Thank you for your answer - I knew that and that is why i always clear cookies when i do a search + i am not logged on my google account. The program i am using is showing me those results - Rank tracker from spyglass - I guess the program is just a bad one then.

Hey Cristian,
Google alters the results based on personal preference. You've most likely clicked on your link a few times, and if so, Google is showing you it higher up the rankings thinking it might be what you're looking for.
If you do a search through a proxy website (ie with a different I.P address) you should see the 'real' rankings.

Hi Everyone! so glad to be here, I had hardly visited the forum and been missing out.

Why do you call it a Campaign?
I'm trying out PRO and have a simple question. Why do you call the main organizational unit in this tool a "Campaign"? "Campaign" makes me think of advertising or direct mail - run over a specific period of time to a specific audience. But, "Campaign" in SEOmoz PRO seems to mean a collection of keywords plus a domain. Is the idea that I'm investing time an money in this collection of keywords in some sort of a structured campaign (using SEO techniques) and then using PRO to track performance against a baseline? By the way, the tool seems great and I love the useful data it provides. I guess I'm really trying to understand the SEO mindset the underpins the design of PRO. Thanks for any help!

Meta keywords no longer in use
Can someone point me to the official article explaining why meta keywords are no longer taken into account by search engines please? I know Moz has indicated that search engines ignore them, but I would like to read a bit more about it - what was the reason behind it and since when.

Keyword Difficulty Tool
Is there a way to use KDT and include my own URL in the process so that I can see (and show my client) how things look competitively across all these nice dimensions? All is well if my client's site is in the top 10 - but if it isn't, how can I get the same set of metrics on a specific URL as it pertains to a specific keyword? Do I somehow to remember it used to do this? Or am I imagining things? I can't seem to get it to work this way. Thanks,

Colors in keyword Difficulty Report
Hi Everyone Two quick questions today 1. How can I find out hat the different colors within the keyword Difficulty Report represent and how can I see examples of how this information can help us with our data analysis? 2. The second question I have is regarding the Term Extractor. Seems when I ran a domain it provided the wrong data. For example, it stated that a certain keyword exists certain number of times within the description and title of the page but when I looked at the source this was not the case so it made studying the competition harder.

Keyword Rankings Question
Does the Keyword Rankings tool track all urls or just the main. Example: Say I put www.domain.com to have tracked. Will the Keyword Rankings tool also track www.domain.com/landing-page and any derivative of the main domain or would this be considered a separate campaign. Thanks
