Rank tracker not showing proper rankings.
-
Just joined MozPro and pretty amazed at all of the info and tools it contains. However I was playing around with the rank tracker and just to test it I put in a keyword and a URL I can clearly see that is ranking #2 for the keyword. Went I ran it through it said that domain wasn't ranked in the top 50. Tried it again and made sure to put in "http://www." and then it said it was #50.
I can clearly see it is #2 for the keyword. Wondering if I am doing something wrong?

Hey Adam,
It's always the little things that get ya!
You entered a root domain and the site you queried ranks for the www subdomain. I added the correct query to your rank tracker so you can check it out.
Anytime you want to check rankings in Rank Tracker, make sure you double-check the subdomain they utilize to avoid any undue confusion.
Cheers!

I took a look at your account, and the one thing I'd try is to do the www search for just the domain itself, and not the subfolder you added. I'm also going to have our help desk take a closer look at this to make sure everything is working properly and fix things if there is an issue.

The result is the same whether or not I use an incognito browser. It IS in fact a location based search and is a plain search result.
The keyword is "[city] seo"
Thanks.

Hi Adam,
When you're looking at the ranking on your own computer, are you using an incognito browser where you're not logged in to the search engine and don't have any search history?
For the keyword, is it a local result? Plain search result? Image result? On occasion, that can also trip us up.

Why there is a big gap between MOZ and Google Analytics Keyword Ranking for my website?
Hello everyone, I've just started a SEO project and I'm very new in the field. Well, I tried to select the most interesting Keywords for my website. When I checked out what the current ranking for each one was, I noticed that between Google and MOZ, figures are totally different. For example, for the word "channel manager": on Google Analytics: #2 on MOZ: not in the top 50 I know that for Google Analytics, these numbers are average (12 months). But it cannot explain such a huge gap. Do you have an explanation for that? And also does that mean that I can't trust Google (really?). Because I also did some analysis with Google figures: Monthly searches, Competition... Thanks for you help! Happy Christmas, Floriane.

Is a higher or lower score better in keyword ranking
I know this is a weird question, I think I have confused myself with different keyword tools. So if you get a score of 10 for your keyword, should you aim to be closer to 1 or 50?

Moz showing warnings for each dynamic link despite canonicalization?
As you can see in the attached image, Moz is showing a warning for each dynamic URL despite a rel=canonical tag. Is this by design? If so, it is frustrating seeing as it is really just the one page with many links . . . 9h5oDmr.png

Rank Checker Replacement Suggestions?
We have used SEObook’s Rank Checker Firefox Plug-in when running one off rank reports. Do you have any suggestions for a replacement (either free or paid) that would not run on our own IP? Some hosted type solution. Again this is for one off rank reports for sets of key phrases. NOT ongoing week to week or day to day rank tracking.
