Why do my Rankings Report show different results than the Rank Tracker tool?
-
I noticed that my ranking report puts be at 33 in google for one term, but when I use the Rank Tracker under Research tools it places me at 15.
-
I normally do a manual search for my keywords as most of them as inside top 50
Also, Google rankings are different for different Google settings like it will be different for Australia while different for different states in Australia.

Hey Matthew,
SEOMoz only updates keyword rankings once a week, so it might be that by the end of the week your rankings might of shifted (quite common with newer websites). Although I had to send off some support emails to SEOMoz help staff in regards to rankings reports coming back wrong (on the actual day of receiving the new rankings report).
What I now do is use a keyword tool to check the majority of keywords, and the main keywords I look-up myself in an incognito search in Chrome.
