How do I know which keywords to track in my MOZ Campaigns?
-
Good morning Mozzers from the London, England.
This may be a silly question to many of the community, but here goes "How do I know which keywords to track in my MOZ campaigns?"
I work in the gyms section in the UK and am tracking keywords like "Gyms in Liverpool" or "Manchester gyms" which send me some traffic.
I can see search terms like the above do send me traffic from Google's Webmaster Tools, but obviously this tool won't highlight the keyword opportunities I am missing out on because I currently don't rank.
Any guidance on this dilemma would be hugely appreciated,
Kindest regards
Ben

Hi Ben,
If you are already getting some traffics from some keywords. You can try out for Google Keyword Planner (https://adwords.google.com/KeywordPlanner) and Keywordtool.io as advised by Martin. Also, you can Access your Google analytics in broader way by connecting it to MOZ pro Analytics> Keyword Ranking to get keywords based on your website and its competitors automatically.

Hi Ben
Have you already optimised your website for keywords? If not then follow Martijn's advice, if the current website is optimised then simply track all keywords which you are currently trying to rank for.
Kind Regards

Hi Ben,
I would start off with doing some extensive keyword research to find the best keywords that are you related to your business. Tools you could use for that are Google Adwords Keyword Tool and Keywordtool.io. Next to that there are more than dozens of great blog posts on how to do keyword research, like for example: http://blog.kissmetrics.com/keyword-research-part-2/ and http://www.viperchill.com/keyword-research/

Unsolved Ranking not collecting keywords
Hi, we recently migrated our blog to be on the same domain as our main website. It's been about a month. I have continued adding more keywords we'd like to track to our Ranking list on Moz. But it's been a week and the keywords are still not collecting. Is this something we need to fix on our end, or is there something going on with Moz? keyword ranking issues.png

Why did Moz crawl our development site?
In our Moz Pro account we have one campaign set up to track our main domain. This week Moz threw up around 400 new crawl errors, 99% of which were meta noindex issues. What happened was that somehow Moz found the development/staging site and decided to crawl that. I have no idea how it was able to do this - the robots.txt is set to disallow all and there is password protection on the site. It looks like Moz ignored the robots.txt, but I still don't have any idea how it was able to do a crawl - it should have received a 401 Forbidden and not gone any further. How do I a) clean this up without going through and manually ignoring each issue, and b) stop this from happening again? Thanks!

How to handle subdirectories in Moz and Webmaster Tools?
I have 3 websites: http://www.abc.com (English pages) http://www.abc.com/fr (French) http://www.abc.com/de (German) Webmaster Tools In Google Analytics: I created an Account called ABC and created 4 properties with relative filters ABC Default (No filter) ABC English (filter to exclude /fr, /de) ABC French (filter to include /fr) ABC German (filter to include /de) In webmaster tools, I wish to add 3 sites http://www.abc.com http://www.abc.com/fr http://www.abc.com/de How do I validate each url with Google analytics, considering I just want the specific language for folder. How do I validate the domain name http://www.abc.com to always ensure the inclusion of the default english data? MOZ Do I need to create 3 campaigns (one per language) and if yes, again how do I handle http://www.abc.com which should exclude /fr and /de? Thank you

Checking multiple keywords in Rank tracking
Besides the rankings in the campaigns i want to check 100+ keywords at once in rank tracking. Is this possible and if not why? It says i can check 400 keywords a day but manually entering them is time consuming and that's exactly why i use SEOMOZ, to save time.

Question About Moz Reports
Hey guys Is it possible to change the date/time that SEOmoz runs its ranking reports? I put together ranking reports each Monday which I need to feedback to the business and it would be good if I could schedule these for late Sunday or early Monday mornings for me coming in to the office.

Ranking Tracking Internal Folders
We would like to track the rankings for an internal site. The website runs inside a big corporate website, url example www.domain.com/za/. How can we effectively track the rankings of only the website inside the folder? There is currently no sub domain setup for this site. Any advice would be appreciated.
