Geo / Location-Based Local or City Level Rank Tracking in SEOmoz
-
Is location-based rank tracking going to be a feature in SEOmoz any time soon? I've seen in a few other company's tools that I can select a city in which to center the search around, for example... if I track the keyword "pizza" and set it to check rankings for "Seattle", it would give me different results than I've I selected "Milwaukee".
The reason for the variation in results is due to maps listings in the results sometimes.
So, my question is, will location-based rank tracking be coming to SEOmoz soon?

Hi Scott,
I wanted to let you and the rest of the people on this thread know that we now can track local rankings! Check out our post at http://moz.com/blog/local-rankings-in-moz-analytics.

Scott,
Thanks for writing in! With the acquisition of getlisted.org we are looking to provide a more robust and seamless experience for our local search SEOs, however we have features in the rankings tool in your campaign that you can utilize now for your reporting needs.
Let's take your pizza shop example. If you wanted to search for how you rank in Seattle for pizza, you would simply have to tailor your keyword as this format: KW + Geotag. In your pizza example it would just be "Pizza Seattle" or "Seattle Pizza shop", our tool will record your results and show Universal placements. You can find more information regarding this topic here: http://www.seomoz.org/help/rankings. One thing to note is if your SERP comes up as a local enhanced result (i.e. Google local), it won't be counted as a numeric result but rather a Universal placement tag on your historical information. Since our tool don't consider these results to be a traditional SERP, thus we don't display it as a numeric SERP on your report.
Hope that helps, let me know if you have any questions regarding Universal placements by replying this thread or by emailing [email protected]!
Best,
Peter

I'm not a part of the SEOmoz staff or Dev team (I play one on tv though) but from the acquisition of GetListed.org and David Mihm saying over and over that the Web App is going to have some dramatic changes in the coming months I would say yes. Check out the first paragraph in one of David's most recent blog posts. I'm really looking forward to the full integration of GetListed.org data and tools.

Why is MOZ crawl is returning URLs with variable results showing Missing Meta Desc? Example: http://nw-naturals.net/?page_number_0=47
Can you help me dive down into my website guts to find out why the MOZ crawl is returning URLs with variable results? And saying this is missing a description when it's not really a page? Example: http://nw-naturals.net/?page_number_0=47. I've asked MOZ but it's a web development issue so they can't help me with it. Has anyone had an issue with this on their website? Thank you!

Seasonal keyword tracking locally?
I'm managing a project for a local fence contractor in Wisconsin. During Fall, his site was getting a fair amount of traffic. (We only track traffic from the State of Wisconsin and exclude office IPs.) For November, traffic tanked and keywords fell. Is there a way to check the search volume by month to see if the recent extreme cold and early snow are the culprit, (people not searching for fences), or should I be looking elsewhere for a problem? I know I have to get more pages optimized for ideal keywords but time is extremely tight on this project. (But, that's another problem and story all of itself!) Thanks!

SEOmoz crawler not crawling my site
We set up a new campaign in SEOmoz on Friday. It is my understanding that the preliminary crawl can cover up to 250 and this has been our experience in the past. However, the preliminary crawl only went through 2 pages. This is a larger eCommerce site with many pages. Any ideas why more pages weren't crawled? We set up the campaign to track at the root domain level.

Why is my site not ranking?
I have done various link building strategies, and used all white hat seo methods. SEOMoz even shows that my site is better than all my competition, but yet it doesn't rank ANYWHERE on Google. Can someone point me in the right direction as to why this is happening? I have attached the opensitexplorer screenshot showing my competition. 2013-02-13_1456_zpsb86ab0e1.png

Page Rank and offline sites
I have a domain with PR6 according to the Historical Pagerank Checker. But that last PR was calculated 2 years ago. I brought the site back online a few days ago and have checked that many/most of the backlinks are still valid. It is now in the Google index but the Historical Pagerank Checker shows PR0. Will it get back its previous rank or something close to it? How long will it take?

How to see rankings for a group of keywords over time?
I have around 1200 keywords in an seomoz campaign, chopped into various groups using labels. I am interested in tracking how keywords perform over time, especially groups of keywords. As far as I can tell, in the seomoz tools I can only see historical performance for a single keyword at a time. Is there a way to get a historical performance graph of more than one keyword at once? We often run optimizations for sets of words, so it seems like you would have better stats looking at groups of words vs picking one at a time. Is there a way to export historical data for more than keyword at a time? (So I could graph and analyze this sort of thing myself) Does anyone have other suggestions for tracking rankings in this way? Thanks for any help!
