How can I easily track multiple keywords for multiple pages?
-
We are creating landing pages to target keywords, and would like to be able to have something set up so at a glance we can see each page's rank for its targeted keyword.
For example, if we have pages with the URLs of example.com/sites/purple-widgets, example.com/sites/purple-widgets-for-cheap, example.com/sites/cheap-purple-widgets, etc., we'd like to see the rank of each of those pages for their respective keyword ("purple widgets", "purple widget for cheap", "cheap purple widgets", etc.).
Any suggestions?

Hi Brandon,
I guess the part I dont understand is why you need to create a new campaign for the /widgets/ part specifically, the overall campaign for example.com will cover all sub folders and sub pages. So you can just set up the main campaign, create as many keywords as you like and label them for easy filtering into logical buckets (widgets, purple, brand, whatever suits). Then all pages in example.com will be tracked for these keywords and whichever page is highest ranked for each keyword will be shown in the main ranking page. If you have any other pages ranking for the same term but lower, they will be visible in the ranking history page. Hope I am not missing something obvious!

Let me backtrack for a second..
We currently have pages that are the equivalent of example.com/widgets/[brand]/[color], but no page for just example.com/widgets. We simply haven't built it yet, plus we don't have a proper site structure in place to be crawled due to our website being a web app.
That said, we have started to build these landing pages for "widgets" of different types, but before we put the proper site structure in place and begin any link building efforts around them, we'd like to be able to track their ranking for their keywords.
My hope is once a proper page is built for example.com/widgets/, we can create a new campaign on Moz and track the keywords from there. Is this true? Is our thinking completely off from what we should be focusing on?
Thanks again!

Hi Brandon,
Not sure if I am understanding the question right but: Usually the top ranking page would be the targeted landing page so in this case could you not just set up the keywords/phrases, group them with a 'purple' label to easily filter and the top rankings shown will be the highest ranking page from your site? If you wanted to check if any of the other pages are ranking for the same phrase you can click through to the ranking history where if all 3 of your pages were ranking for one of the terms say in position 3, 10 and 20 you would see all three pages in the history graph and rolling over the points shows the ranking and the specific page in that position. Is something like that what you were after?

Ranking Reports for New Keywords
I added new keywords to my campaign. They do appear in my ranking report. But I am not getting any ranking data on the new keywords. It looks like they are yet to be crawled. For my initial set of keywords, i see the specific rankings in each search engine and for some it says "not in the top 50." For the new ones all I see are zeros. Will the ranking data eventually appear?

Evaluating Competition of a Keyword
I'm curious about how others evaluate the competition of keywords when putting together an SEO program: Do you place any faith in the competition listing in the Google Keyword Tool? Do you find value in SEOmoz's Keyword Difficulty tool? What other tactics or processes do you perform?
