Track keywords of our competitor
-
Is there a way for us to track the keywords of our competitor and so we can use that to optimize our sites?
-
Not really automate the process. You see there's a lot of possible keywords and we are thinking of focusing first on those keywords that our competitor is using. So in a way getting some ideas on which keywords they are using.

I would focus on figuring out what keywords you're targeting (you are an expert for your product after all) and then compare your rankings against your competitors. You can use a tool like Rank Checker. (Though beware when using it as it will search via your profile & IP unless you tweak your search.)

Raventools.com will crawl you site and pick out the words that repetedly occur on your site and then the rankings for those. Thats pretty close to knowing the rank i'd say.
Semrush does the same for adwords as that might show witch words they ar trying to rank for.
But like I said, I would'nt do that since it might not be the words you really want to rank for.

You can't go like: automate the process that you get keywords where your competitor ranks for. Somebody should build a tool for that :0
You can go like: see what pages your competitor has optimized, how he structured his site, see where he gets his links from and with what anchor text and go from there.
And of course you can use the keywords you want to rank on and see where your competitor ranks for those keywords.

You can, but I would'nt recommend you do that. You should find out witch keywords konverts on YOUR site and that analyse that data in google keyword tool to find out witch keywords have the most searches.
Go for the words that converts!

How can you tell how many pages rank for a particular keyword?
I know with ranktracker I can see a page that will rank for a certain keyword. What if I have multiple pages that rank for this keyword? How can I see all pages that rank for it?

Page Ranking by URL / Keyword
Needing to know how to find out the page rank of a URL that is NOT within the top 50 or top 100. Need to know that specific page's rank, not what our overall site's ranking for the keyword is. Can't seem to find any tool that goes beyond the top 100. Any ideas?

Checking multiple keywords in Rank tracking
Besides the rankings in the campaigns i want to check 100+ keywords at once in rank tracking. Is this possible and if not why? It says i can check 400 keywords a day but manually entering them is time consuming and that's exactly why i use SEOMOZ, to save time.

What's the best practice for tracking broad match traffic?
We use the Pro Web App for our keyword/ranking reporting. First, am I correct in assuming that this uses exact match to report the traffic? That being the case, is there a way in Moz (beyond entering endless permutations of our targeted keywords) to track traffic we're getting out of broad match searches? For example, say we optimized for and are tracking the keyword "lambada dancing llamas" for a company called Llarry's Llamas. Let's say that Moz reports little to no traffic for that keyword, but GoogleAnalytics indicates that we've gotten traffic from "larrys dancing llamas", "dancing llamas", "llarry llamas" and so on. So, obviously we're getting broad match traffic out of the lambada llamas, just not a lot of exact match, which is all that the Moz app shows. How do other people track this kind of traffic?

Campaign Manager - Keyword Grouping
Hey, I was just thinking that it would be useful to be able to group keywords by page or some other factor in the campaign monitor keyword rank checking tool (I am sure it's called something better than that). Maybe it's just me, but I am struggling a little with this for relatively smaller sites so if I could tag each keyword and filter / group them by the tag it would be another useful tool for my seo utility belt. Fairly painless to implement as well I would imagine. 1. Create tags 2. assign tags to keywords with a drop down (optional) Would be a useful tool when exporting data to group by tag etc. Just a thought. 🙂 Marcus

Why isn't my Domain Authority much higher than my competitors'?
Looking at the Competitive Link Analysis report shows my domain outperforming my competitors on Domain MozRank, Domain MozTrust, total links, linking root domains, followed linking root domains, and linking c-blocks. But Domain Authority scores are very similar across all four sites with one competitor actually scoring higher than my domain. How should I unpick this result? I'm assuming that there must a problem with my link profile. Is that a valid assumption? Thanks, Tom fc7Ez.png
