I'm having difficulties with SEOmoz Rank Tracker tool. During last month, it hasn't worked properly.
I was suggested to use "campaign based rank tracking tool"- I would like to learn if anyone has already used it?
Thanks,

Hi Sema,
I am happy to be of help. If you don't want to rely on a single tool like SEOmoz I understand I must say though I think SEOmoz is the best when it comes to this however this is my personal opinion. You may use incognito to check some things and it will work much better than if you were logged into Google or were not using incognito. However if I were to Google "pizza near me" whether or not I am using incognito I would get the closest pizza parlor to me. For instance I'm in Florida so I will obviously get different results in somebody in Chicago. Some of the tools you can use for your websites to get unbiased information are www.majesticseo.com http://www.surcentro.com http://www.semrush.com and check out the companies listed here http://www.semrush.com/partners.html
I hope this has answered your questions. If not please post again or let me know I would be happy to help you.

Hi Thomas,
Thank you very much for your detailed answer. I'll try to use that tool now to rank our websites. Somehow I don't like relying on single tool. If I use google incognito how helpful or realistic my results be? Do you have any ideas on this or any more suggestions?
Thanks,
Sema

Hi Sema,
The campaign based rank tracking tool is to give you an unbiased or on tainted (by your search preferences in Google that can change what you would see as opposed to what I might see if I looked up a keyword) understanding of your true rank in Google, Bing & Yahoo. For whatever website you put in your SEOmoz campaign.. All you need to use it is your SEOmoz Pro subscription then go into http://pro.seomoz.org/campaigns or campaigns you'll see the button is the 2nd to the right when you log into SEOmoz after that go to create campaign. You will be asked to enter your URL with a subdomain (when they say subdomain they mean www.) enter it along with I believe 5 of your competitors. It is important for them to have your Google Analytics ID if you do not have Google Analytics yet or you would like to find your ID go to https://www.google.com/analytics/web/ then either sign in or sign up. Once you have done all this give SEOmoz the time to crawl your site once that is done you will have access to an amazing amount of information. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
I hope I was of help.
Sincerely,

How to Target Other Countries Using TLDs?
I would like to know if it is possible (and beneficial) to target other countries using country-based TLDs? When visiting a company website for instance, you often get redirected to your country's site. For instance, when you visit cafepress.com from Canada, you get redirected to cafepress.ca. Since both websites (cafepress.com and cafepress.ca) have the same content, how they get away with it with no duplicate content issues?

Rankings of Subdomains vs. Main Domain
Here's a puzzler... Our main domain (www.ides.com) doesn't appear in Google (but does on Bing and other engines). We think this is due to duplicate content which we're fixing. However our website's subdomains continue to appear prominently in SERPs, even on Google - here are some examples: IDES Prospector = prospector.ides.com IDES = support.ides.com Cycolac FR15 = catalog.ides.com Why would Google penalize a main domain and its subdomains?

Webmaster Tools 404s
We try to keep our 404s in google webmaster tools to a minimum but in recent months, the volume has simply exploded to over 500k errors. 99.95% of this is complete spam linking to pages that never existed. Have tried marking as resolved but they just end up back in the list eventually and don't like the idea of 301ing so many links when the pages never existed in the first place. We can just ignore them all but this makes it hard to identify legitimate 404s that need redirecting as there is only so much data we can export out of WT. Has anyone had experience with returning 410s? Does google eventually drop these from WT?

Domain authority and rankings?
I have a site that sits in #1 position for its keywords right now. But it only got there about 1mth ago. The site is only about 6mths old with lots of link building. I check the domain authority and its only 37/100 with the #2, #3 sites having domain authority of 57 and 82 respectively. This site has like 800+ backlinks. While the #2 and #3 sites have 20,000+ backlinks. Does it mean that my site will LIKELY drop in rankings very soon? I know there is no certainty but wld you say that it is highly probable my site will drop?
