Why is different the difficulty of a keyword in Google Spain and Google mexico?
-
In your opinion, Which are the main reasons of this difference?

Thanks Mat!
I agree in most of your arguments.
That's true there are a lot of differences between the dialectics used in Mexico and Spain.

Hard to say without knowing the keywords and probably also better knowing the two markets. However I can hazard at a few of the factors that might be at play.
Difference in competition
The most obvious possibility is that there is a real difference in business competition. The markets are different, so there will be differences in the supply/demand of various products and services as well as geographic terms. Let me pull a example from my big bag of national stereotypes: I would imagine that the competition for terms around tequila would be higher in Mexico than Spain.
Difference in dialect
Despite the common language the phrases used can differ. I've been doing a tiny bit of work for the Brazilian market and we've noticed a number of differences in the terms used by Brazilian Portuguese speakers and Europeans from Portgugal. My impression is that Spanish can vary even more greatly.
Sample Size
A less obvious factor is sample size. All of these tools rely on samples of data. The more niche your query the less accurate they become. Spain has a population of around 47million, mexico 112 million. That could affect the accuracy of data if the terms you are using are quite specific.

Competitor Ranks Top Keywords Without Backlinks
One of my competitors is ranking very well for many different competitive keywords (1k+ searches per month). I'm trying to figure out how in the world he is ranking so well. I've signed up for MozPro and looked at his back-links. He has 1 branded site-wide back-link from a decent blog. He also has 1 contextual back-link from a decent blog. Other than these 2 back-links, the rest are garbage links unlikely to even count for anything (he has maybe 12 of these low quality back-links). My website on the other hand has more than 15 back-links from different (high quality) websites and does not rank anywhere near this competitor. This leads me to believe that either MozPro back-link reporting is inadequate or there is foul-play on the part of my competitor. As far as on-page SEO is considered, his website is far inferior. Therefore, I highly doubt this would play a role. What are some reasonable approaches I can take to better understand the cause of this discrepancy. Clearly the back-link reporting has not revealed any answers.

How to check Google Keyword rankings?
Hey, So I recently watched the DuckDuckGo commercial about Google's results bubble. My question is how can you get the actual keyword rankings of relevant key phrases without Google taking your locations and search history into account? Would it just be a case of clearing your cache & history from the beginning of time or is there an accurate tool (other than SEOmoz ofc that I can use? Best regards, Dan

Good tools to compare site speed on different sites?
Google tells me that my site is slower than 81% of the internet.Now this is a very large news website, so I would like to compare this against other very large news websites. Are there any tools that will be able to tell me the speed of a list of websites? I am looking for something a little more detailed than 'this site loaded in 1 second'. Also, do any of you fellow SEOs know of any good tools to analyse what is causing your site to slow down? Kind regards

What % is a GO when using the Keyword difficulty tool?
Hi, A lot of keywords I have looked into say 'moderately competitive' at around 35% - 45%. But what else would you look at in the table to decide whether or not the keyword term is achievable and how do you decide this maybe its the root domain backlinks and maybe you would only touch it if it had less then 30. Basically what other elements do you look at when deciding whether to pursue? This might also include some research in Google itself (although most the data you would want is in the tool, well I think anyway! Cheers
