Using Your 50 Monthly SERP Analysis Reports
-
Hi. I've been running analysis on a variety of keywords for a few of our clients and am noticing I'm going through our 50 monthly full SERP Analysis Reports pretty quickly.
While SEO is only a fraction of what we do, I know there are large SEO shops out there that must run a tremendous amount of analysis each month.
If you're running such analysis routinely, how do you manage with only 50 full SERP Analysis Reports each month? How do these reports fit into your workflow?
Thanks a lot.

Thanks for your reply Scott.
I generally run the full SERP Analysis to dive deeper into analyzing the likelihood we'll be able to rank for a given phrase. In the past I've found it useful to see the level of optimization for the top 10 pages as well as some metrics on the number of links coming in to those pages that are ranking. I weigh these against the domains and pages we're trying to rank to see how it looks.
We don't give this data directly to clients. We interpret the data and talk to them about their chances to rank for given phrases.

Honestly, I have not run that report in over a year myself. While it does provide interesting data, I'm interested to know what's the main reason you are running that report? Is it to show to clients to explain the possible difficultly associated with ranking a keyword, or some other reason?

Why are my month old links not showing in WMT or OSE?
Hey Everyone! I've been working hard on boosting my ranking after launching my new site 2 months ago. I realize that this process normally takes some time however I've come across a questions that I'm not sure I know that answer to... I had some really solid back links added about a month ago but nothing is showing up yet in WMT on them. When I run an OSE I don't see any links there (not even under newly discovered). Can someone please help with some insight on why they might now be showing. Is it just a time thing or should I be doing something different?Any insight will be very helpful. Thanks

What SEO Tools Do You Use?
Things changed a bit for me when Raven Stopped using google and SemRush data and I haven't exactly found a solution I'm happy with so Just wanted to use what people use alongside SEOMoz, or what they use instead of certain parts of SEOMoz. Before I was using Raven Tools, Screaming Frog SEO Crawler but currently I'm using Screaming Frog SEO Crawler, SEOMoz (trial), and SerpIQ (trial).

Rank Report Not Updating
The ranking tool indicates that a new rank report will be generated every Tuesday. My last report was on November 15th. It is now November 25th. It missed last week. Should I report something wrong or is this normal? How do I keep it updating on a weekly basis like it's supposed to? I checked in settings to see if I had done anything wrong and couldn't find anything. Regards, Dino

Competitive Domain Analysis
In one of my campaigns, competitive domain analysis shows that the total links is always the same as ext. followed links. This can't be right as the site has both external links and internal links. What would be the possible issue here? Thanks for sharing your insight.
