How can I get ranking keys of competitors
-
Sometimes it might be clever to analyse the stategy of a competitor to see with which keys they rank successfully. For example I have a webshop, so I type in amazon.com and seomoz spits out: books, dvds, ... I can now see with what keys i wont have a chance and can think of missing keys where my chance might be. Is there a possibility to find out with seomoz?
-
No problem, you guys is worth it. Thanks for the Q&A point, did not think of it.
-
but only the keys you added, no?
-
Lots of good answers. Easier would be, if there was a tool. can't be that difficult. Maybe an idear for the team...?
-
The Q&A forum is available just to Pro members, so if someone is in here asking, that means they also have a pro membership.
Thanks for the compliment about the Pro membership Robert!

Check their keyword metatags and titles... the keyword listed there are the ones they want to rank for. Then launch a rank checker to see how they perform.

Term extractor is for all, the KW Difficulty just for Pro members.
-
both great tools. SEOmoz has a ton of tools as well.. if you setup campaigns, you can also add competitors and track their wins / fails as well.
-
The term extractor tool is very useful, and I use semrush.com if I want to check what a competitor ranks highest for.
-
Not sure if this is part of the PRO package or available to all, but http://www.seomoz.org/term-extractor and the Keyword Difficulty Tool are both helpful.
A shameless plug for SEOmoz here is I have never regretted having the pro membership.

Recovering rankings after a botched url change
Hi there, I have for a long time had a bicycle maintenance website at madegood.org. Over the years the film branch of this business has taken off and moved in a slightly different direction, so I thought in March I decided to move madegood.org to madegoobikes.com, and create a new website for my film business at madegood.com. I thought I did a good job of telling google about my change of domain, but my rankings completely died, so about a month I moved madegoodbikes.com back to madegood.org. So far I haven't seen any sign of a recovery in my rankings, I'm getting almost no visits. I've check all my top pages on OSE and everything seems to be in place. https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/pages?site=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.madegood.org%2F&no_redirects=0&sort=page_authority&filter=all&page=1 Is it normal to wait over a month for my rankings to recover, or is there anything else I should be doing? Any tips/ideas/advice whatsoever will of huge help!

Is there any way to get historical API data?
I'm looking for a way of requesting domain authority and some other stats via the API for several previous months. I noticed on here: http://apiwiki.seomoz.org/what-is-the-mozscape-api
Moz Pro | | ReallyEasyCart
It says "SEOmoz PRO members now have access to historical API linking data - read about this great new feature on our blog!" but i could not find this blog post anywhere and maybe I'm misreading this line anyway.0 -
How can I tell what day I added my keywords to the keyword ranking tool?
I can't tell if a keyword is newly ranking or if it just started ranking because I added it to the system. I have added keywords piecemeal over several months and I can't remember which ones I added on which date. Can anyone help me with this?

What should be cols value if I want to get Backlinks?
Hi, I am forming below url to get backlinks. http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/url-metrics/".$trimurl."?Cols=2048 &AccessID=".$accessID." &Expires=".$expires." &Signature=".$urlSafeSignature; For Example, if I keep $trimurl = "www.tatvic.com/" , I get [uid] => 633. Is this a right way to get number of backlinks ? If not, what should be the 'Cols' value? Also, how can I ensure that the number of links I am getting is correct ? Is there any way to compare this number with Google search results? This is very essential to check as I got different number of backlinks on different APIs. Thank you.

How can a site have a backlink from Barclays website?
Hi, I have entered a competitiors website www.my-wardrobe.com into Open Site to see who they get links from and to my surprise they have a load from Barclays Business Banking. When I visit the page I can not see the links. But if I search the pages source code for my-wardrobe, there I have it, a link to my-wardrobe.com. How have they done this? Surely Barclays haven't sold them it? And more so, why are they receiving link juice when you cant even see the link on the Barclays page in question - http://www.barclays.co.uk/BusinessBanking/P1242557952664 Thanks | |
