What is the best ranking checker solution for 100's of sites
-
Hello,
We used IBP for over 2 years and it worked great. We were able to schedule every clients site to auto run and email our clients.
Now IBP is terrible due to Google's new updates.
We are looking for something cost effective since we have 100's of websites we check on a weekly basis.
We are either looking for a great software that uses proxies to check, or a service that offers unlimited sites and is cheap per month.
We have searched for many, however there are so many that we aren't sure what is good and what isn't.
We tried Jonathan Ledgers new one and it's not good, we looked into Web CEO and it's per amount of websites which is expensive.
We tried cute rank tracker which is free and added proxies and it doesn't work, it lags out and doesn't even track ranks properly.
It wouldn't hurt if it had a built in report analysis of the website as well.
So whats a good one?

Any free sites to check in rank.I have few sites.Any online site that can give data up to Top 100 searches for a keyword.

Thanks I took a look at all of them and I am impressed with the 1 time fee of AWR, but like I explained below I feel that the proxies are always an issue when trying to get accurate readings and reports. If there is a solution behind this I would be happy to use it and buy them now.
Have a great day and thanks for your response.

Thanks I gave them a call to find out more info. I wish I could find a 1 time fee, but I may not be able to, I guess it depends on if there are solutions for AWR proxies or not.
Have a nice day and thanks for your quick response.

Ok, I downloaded the trial and quickly realized that it runs off of my ip for searches. This generally doesn't go well, how do you get around the ip bans from Google on a hourly basis?
Sure you can use ips through IE, but that even gets a temp ban within 15 mins.
How are you getting around that for temp bans? We have some sites with 50 keywords that we rank check for.
The price seems fair since it's a 1 time fee, but i am skeptical of anything you download to your own desktop.
I know that others ran on private servers just rotate 1000's of proxies every few minutes.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Have a great day.

We use AWR and I highly recommend it. And yes, the domains and numbers of keywords are unlimited - we have several hundred clients loaded - also, its accuracy is comparable to any software we have used - and we have used a lot over the years.
-
Authority Labs (http://authoritylabs.com/) is the best service I've used, and they have a decent pricing model. They even have a 30-day free trial where you can check rankings for up to 1500 keywords.

Normally I'd recommend Serpbook or MicroSiteMasters but I think with all those sites and their inevitable keywords, you're gonna have problems with a high monthly fee.
Therefore, a one off fee is probably a better option. Check out Advanced Web Ranking (AWR) and some of their price plans - you can get white-label reporting for a $199 one-off fee. From what I can tell, you can track unlimited keywords and domains. Can't vouch for its accuracy or ease of use as I haven't used it a great deal, but it does come recommended from a few pros. Think it comes with some SEO tools too for a bit of a higher price, which may appeal to you given your question.
Hope this helps.

Large site with content silo's - best practice for deep indexing silo content
Thanks in advance for any advice/links/discussion. This honestly might be a scenario where we need to do some A/B testing. We have a massive (5 Million) content silo that is the basis for our long tail search strategy. Organic search traffic hits our individual "product" pages and we've divided our silo with a parent category & then secondarily with a field (so we can cross link to other content silo's using the same parent/field categorizations). We don't anticipate, nor expect to have top level category pages receive organic traffic - most people are searching for the individual/specific product (long tail). We're not trying to rank or get traffic for searches of all products in "category X" and others are competing and spending a lot in that area (head). The intent/purpose of the site structure/taxonomy is to more easily enable bots/crawlers to get deeper into our content silos. We've built the page for humans, but included link structure/taxonomy to assist crawlers. So here's my question on best practices. How to handle categories with 1,000+ pages/pagination. With our most popular product categories, there might be 100,000's products in one category. My top level hub page for a category looks like www.mysite/categoryA and the page build is showing 50 products and then pagination from 1-1000+. Currently we're using rel=next for pagination and for pages like www.mysite/categoryA?page=6 we make it reference itself as canonical (not the first/top page www.mysite/categoryA). Our goal is deep crawl/indexation of our silo. I use ScreamingFrog and SEOMoz campaign crawl to sample (site takes a week+ to fully crawl) and with each of these tools it "looks" like crawlers have gotten a bit "bogged down" with large categories with tons of pagination. For example rather than crawl multiple categories or fields to get to multiple product pages, some bots will hit all 1,000 (rel=next) pages of a single category. I don't want to waste crawl budget going through 1,000 pages of a single category, versus discovering/crawling more categories. I can't seem to find a consensus as to how to approach the issue. I can't have a page that lists "all" - there's just too much, so we're going to need pagination. I'm not worried about category pagination pages cannibalizing traffic as I don't expect any (should I make pages 2-1,000) noindex and canonically reference the main/first page in the category?). Should I worry about crawlers going deep in pagination among 1 category versus getting to more top level categories? Thanks!

What's my best strategy for Duplicate Content if only www pages are indexed?
The MOZ crawl report for my site shows duplicate content with both www and non-www pages on the site. (Only the www are indexed by Google, however.) Do I still need to use a 301 redirect - even if the non-www are not indexed? Is rel=canonical less preferable, as usual? Facts: the site is built using asp.net the homepage has multiple versions which use 'meta refresh' tags to point to 'default.asp'. most links already point to www Current Strategy: set the preferred domain to 'www' in Google's Webmaster Tools. set the Wordpress blog (which sits in a /blog subdirectory) with rel="canonical" to point to the www version. Ask programmer to add 301 redirects from the non-www pages to the www pages. Ask programmer to use 301 redirects as opposed to meta refresh tags & point all homepage versions to www.site.org. Does this strategy make the most sense? (Especially considering the non-indexed but existent non-www pages.) Thanks!!

SEOmoz not showing Google rankings accurately in Ranking Reports. How do we fix this?
We have a running campaign for a client who has rankings show for Yahoo and Bing within the SEOmoz Ranking Reports, however, Google shows no data or rankings. When we manually check from different IP's and computers and browsers, we see our client ranking very well in Google and for keywords which we have inside their campaign for SEOmoz. Can anyone provide insight into this? Have you experienced this also? Our reports would look terrible going to the client if sent from SEOmoz directly as Google shows 0 (Not in Top 50) for all keywords, so we have to get rankings from other sources or manually to show our client. Thank you in advance for your help and tips everyone!

Why don't Google+ URL's work in OSE?
Is there any reason why Google+ URLs does not work in OSE? Is it just that it is a secure URL or is there something bigger there? Why? Be cool to determine every website the person has been published on; especially if it is rel="author" verified. Jeff
