SERP Changes depending on ISP
-
If I search Google for my site using my mobile internet provider I get different results from my main internet.
Before anyone suggests it, it's nothing to do with saved searches as I'm clearing cookies and I've tried on multiple different platforms.
I can plug my iPad and use my wireless, it's my normal rankings, but as soon as I switch to my mobile provider for internet, I'm 3rd instead of 2nd on the SERPs.
Any ideas?

Your results can change based on the Google data center that is utilized. Perhaps your mobile devices utilize a different one than your computers?

Logged in or out, it's the same! I actually tried two different mobile networks, both had the same results. I did think maybe Google are testing an algo with mobiles to display which one is more mobile friendly higher?

Thoughts on scraping SERPs and APIs
I'm perplexed about a couple of things. Google says that scraping keyword rankings is against their policy from what I've read. Bummer. We comprise a lot of reports and manual finding and entry was a pain. Enter Moz! We still manually check and compare, but it's nice having that tool. I'm confused now though about practices and getting SERPs in an automated way. Here are my questions Is it against policy to get SERPs from an automated method? If that is the case, isn't Moz breaking this policy with it's awesome keyword tracker? If it's not, and we wanted to grab that kind of data, how would we do it? Right now, Moz's API doesn't offer this data. I thought Raven Tools at one point offered this, but they don't now from what I've read. Are there any APIs out there that we can grab this data and do what we want with it? (let's day build our own dashboard)? Thanks for any clarification and input!

Why are there significant changes in the amount of duplicate content without any known action?
I've noticed a surprisingly rapid change in duplicate content over the past month. I'd noticed ~6,000 instances of duplicate content, after disavowing bad links we went down to 3k, this makes perfect sense to me. But after that, without doing anything whatsoever, from last Thursday, the 20th, to yesterday the instances of duplicate content decreased again down to 2k. Could this just be a delayed indexing of pages or are there other factors here? Thanks for the help.

Are Moz Ratings that reliable/correlated against SERPS?
So 3 weeks in Penguin 2.0 and after an initial drop in rankings (4-5 places on top keywords from rank 1), I have seen a small climb in rankings by a couple places but have seen a huge jump in my DA, PA and Domain trust/rank... That FAR surpasses any other magicians website. However I am ranking below some really really poorly rated sites. I am getting a PA of 51 which is really high for the industry (maybe the highest). If this is the case, why am I not number one for every keyword in my demographic?

I know this is asked a lot but how reliable are Moz stats, I know no one can really know how Google rank sites on SERPS but if Moz is the best shouldn't it be kinda close? Any thoughts on how accurate Moz rank is and also if it can be used as some indication of the SEO power behind a website.0 -
My Mozbar SERP overlay stopped working when I updated to Firefox 20.0!
I tried restarting Firefox, rebooting my computer (Mac), uninstalling and reinstalling the Mozbar, still nothing. I use that data a lot, so I'd love to get it back...

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. David

Big changes in site titles
So as I pour though some of the diagnostics data for over 100,000 pages of my site I see thousands of page title that "could" be changed. Could this cause some lost traffic for a while due to the big changes?

I made a mistake on my root domain, how can I change it.
I just signed up for SEOmoz and already goofed up on setting up my root domain, I left out www. part. I can't find a way to edit it. Can I change it, or do I need to start a new campaign and delete this one?
