Why did the crawl last night not show the same results i see in google?
-
Last night my keywords were crawled and it shows me that a key word is ranked 14. For 3 days now it has been rank 4 or 5. Is there a reason this is not accurate? I have not checked the rest of my keywords so i am not sure about those. Thanks

That was a good test. Then chances are your default natural rankings have gone down. If it's not personal search causing it then, look at some some of my other suggestions above. It's likely to be a number of different factors which some research and corresponding changes to your site could do the trick

I have had a few friends that have searched from different states and they come up with the same as me.

The most common reason for this type of difference in rankings is that you are using personalized search; that Google is personalizing you search based on your prior search history, any information if you are logged in, etc. I usually go to Safari to the edit -> reset Safari option which resets Safari to like it was just freshly installed with no cookies, no browsing history, no cache, etc. and check my rankings that way.

Hi There, Lots of reasons, including: Webpages are crawled, not keywords. If your pages have changed, the keywords the pages rank for could also have changed. Google make over 500 algorithm changes a year, rankings are constantly changing for many many different keywords. Personalised search may be showing you different results to what you saw before, as can location changes and browser caching. Perhaps the inbound links to your site have been devalued, which in turn can lower your rankings. I'd suggest performing an on-page analysis to help identify any page errors that you may have. Check out the inbound links to your website for anything dubious. There are plenty of other tools to use, SEOmoz has a great set that you could find useful. Hope that helps, Regards Simon

SEOmoz crawler not crawling my site
We set up a new campaign in SEOmoz on Friday. It is my understanding that the preliminary crawl can cover up to 250 and this has been our experience in the past. However, the preliminary crawl only went through 2 pages. This is a larger eCommerce site with many pages. Any ideas why more pages weren't crawled? We set up the campaign to track at the root domain level.

Why does Rel Canonical show up as a notice?
In the crawl diagnostics screen "Rel Canonical" shows up as a notice for every page that has a rel="canonical" meta tag in it. Why is this the case? Shouldn't every page have a canonical tag on it to show the absolute URL to the content? Wouldn't a better notice be to display pages that do not have a canonical tag instead? I could be wrong but that would make more sense to me. (In fact.. let's be honest here.. I probably am wrong.. but I'd like someone to explain it if they could.) Thanks

SEOmoz showing crawl errors but webmastertools says no errors, need help!
Hi this is my first question and i couldnt find a similar question on here. basically i have a clients website that is showing 150 duplicate page titles and content errors plus others. SEOmoz analysis is showing me for example is 3 duplicate hompage URLS: 1.www.domain.com 2.domain.com 3.www.domain.com/index.html all 3 are the same page. after explaining to the guy (who built the website) the errors, he ensured me that the main URL is URl 1. and the other 2 are 301 redirects. however SEOmoz analysis doesnt seem to change the results and webmastertools doesnt seem to show any errors at all. also if i try all 3 URL's there are no redirects to URL 1. any help or clarity would be awesome! Thanks e-bob

Open site explorer result discrepancy
Hi all, I'm a little confused - when using open sites explorer to view of link stats on one of our competitors site I get conflicting results. For example - Page Specific Metircs shows the url www.xyz.com has 265 external links. But Root Domain Metrics show they have 22,687 links Yet the total links at the top of the report says Total links 999 Can someone explain why www.xyz.com has 265 external links and the rot domain (which is the same) has 22687 links? I've also run the report on xyz.com rather than www.xyz.com which yielded no results. Thanks in advance
