Do you know any competitive landscape tool ?
-
Hello Moz community,
I wonder if you have tips / tools to build a good competitive landscape "picture" for your clients ?
When i'm working on a pre-sales audit, i like to generate 100/200 keywords related to my prospect universe and then show him how well/bad positioned he is on this "market".
To do so i use AdvancedWebRanking to monitor position of prospect + 3 competitors for this list of Keywords. Then i manually calculate a "market share" derived from each actor position.
I wonder if there is a tool that can automatically do it ? For a list of keywords that you input.
Thanks for your answers

Ryan and Ruth,
Thanks for your answer, indeed lowering the number of keywords to the "broader" ones is a really good option. I'll try AuthorityLabs.
Meny thanks

Hmm... This is really tough to automate as it can become really inclusive; meaning, often there's a one/two degrees of separation within search results where your client or their competitor could be discussed within the top ten of the search results. For example, the search could end up pulling a review site that's discussing client/comp products and then linking to them. While clicks would show up from this site as referrer the value associated with the ranking should also be part of a report like that.
What you might be able to do to convey the same idea but with quicker iterations would be to really lower the number of keywords that you're reporting on to a smaller level and then clustering them into representative batches. If they become a client you can bump up the reporting details, but at the initial stages you're really pitching your knowledge, service, and system. I think you could get that across with fewer keywords and deeper dives into the marketplace. That way you could present on options like advertising on sites that feature reviews of your competitors, print options in smaller / low-cost markets, image-map-knowledge box results, etc. Cheers!

What keywords does the competition have?
I know this might be a long shot. I've been working on my google rankings and am first for a few keywords but still seeing quite low traffic. Is there a tool that allows me to see what keywords my competition is receiving high levels of traffic from? Thanks Dan

What does it mean when two keywords in Google's Keyword Research Tool have exactly the same amount of searches?
The two keywords are [publicity] and [product placement] (both in exact search - not broad) and have 22,200 searches each. Is it purely coincidental or are the two keywords kind of related in Google's eyes and that's why we're seeing the same amount of searches for each?

What's the best keyword tool for discovering regional/metropolitan area keywords?
Generally I use the Google Keyword Tool for my keyword research, but given the fact that the data is either country specific or global, I was wondering what others use for regional/dma-specific keyword discovery. Regional traffic is very important to my site, so I'm hoping to find a tool that I can use to find keywords germane to my audience.

Google Keyword Tool Doesn't Include Related Searches
For the same keyword phrase,the Google Adwords Keyword Tool complete list of keyword ideas does not contain all the keyword phrases that appear in "searches related to..." at the bottom of the page when you plug the same keyword phrase into Google. Can anyone tell me why not?

Keywords in google's webmaster tools
how heavily do the list of keywords in google's webmaster tools reflect your ranking for those keywords? For example see this screenshot: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/39497/Screen shot 2011-06-04 at 7.22.31 PM.png we are a self storage company, and our first two keywords in google's webmaster tools are storage and self. the problem is nobody searches for self storage (from my keyword research). most people search for "storage +cityname" like "storage toronto" for example. so i guess my question would be this: would it be effective to change all the instances of "Self" on our website to "Toronto" or other city names to try to push the city names higher in google's webmaster tools keywords rank?
