Added to product title showing the discount, will it affect the product rankings?

I've added the savings info to a few products to see if I get any more visits from google merchant, example; After Party | Save £5.40. will it harm the products ranking or merchant feed?

Yes it does improve CTR on organic search. Regular product pages rely on the content Google crawls (i.e. title and description).
With the hproduct spec you will get price, availability, product category bread-crumb and review information - i.e. your search result will stand out from everyone else.
I have only worked with hproduct and single offers, but I would say that the offeraggregate would allow you to cater for different currencies. A good starting point is http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=146750
Don't use microformats. Microdata/Schema.org is your first choice but RDFa works just as well.
-
Do you have any evidence that microformats increases CTR? My guess is it does, just looking for something more concrete.
If your product is in multi currencies how would you code that in microformats?
-
I think you would get more click-throughs by adding microformats and reviews to your product pages - like this.
The merchant feed specifications are quite strict about not including promotional context in your title (such as "free shipping").

A keyword my site ranks on has recently dropped from no 2 to 51+ after weeks ranking high.
Any ideas? The full SERP analysis still puts it at no 2 so I'm quite confused

Keyword Rankings Compare to X not working
Anyone else having trouble with the compare your keyword positions with competitors section of the analytics? The rankings for my site(s) are fine but whichever competitor I click on to compare rankings to just returns 'Not in Top 50' the competitor is ranking. I have just manually checked and they are very much listed in the engine. Is this tool broken?

AM I the only one getting misleading titles in OSE?
I am trying to locate directories in my competitor's links using OSE. Here is the workflow I am using: Filter all results to external sites only, group by site, linking to any page on the domain. Export results to csv. My competitor is in the web design industry. So I try to filter the titles of the pages linking to the competitor to look for titles containing directory. But when I click on the link for "Windsor Internet Web Design Hosting Ontario Canada Directory" I get a page with the title "Kitchen & Bathroom Showroom | London Ontario | Bathroom Vanity Showroom" Are the results really this misleading?? or am I doing something wrong here? Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated.

Rank Tracker Logging Me #Out
Hi I was wondering if someone could help me with something? Whenever I try and use the rank tracker SEOmoz logs me out and won't let me log back in until I go to a different page. Is this because I am on a free trial (which I don't understand as I am able to use the other tools)
