Is the Moz Ranking Report correct?
-
Hello here,
today I got my weekly report from Moz by email and it reported a strong decline of rankings on some of our major keywords. Then I went to check on Google personally, and instead I found my pages ranked much higher than reported by Moz (please note that my results wasn't personalized...). I also use a desktop program to check my rankings, and what I found personally on Google corresponded to what my desktop program reported me.
Here is an example: my website is virtualsheetmusic.com, and Moz reported a rank NOT in top 50 for the following keyword:
"moonlight sonata sheet music"
Whereas we are actually on the 19th spot.
Another example for the keyword "czardas violin sheet music", Moz reports NOT in top 50, whereas we are actually at the 5th spot on the first page of Google results!
Why's this? Anyone can explain? Is there anything wrong with Moz ranking report?

Thank you!
-
I'm not aware of a change, but I'm glad to hear the data is matching what you're seeing. Thanks for letting us know!
-
UPDATE: today I got my new report from Moz and now the data is right! Have you guys fixed anything on your side? Just curious... anyhow, now everything looks good! Thanks!
-
Sorry just found: it is actually setup with the domain "www.virtualsheetmusic.com" so that should be good! What do you think?

Hi Keri.
How can I check how my campaign is set up? I tried to find that out but I can't find where that can be defined.
Thanks for your help!

Is your campaign set up with or without the www subdomain? If your campaign is set up for non-www and the results you're seeing are on www, that would be the reason (and it's a common reason).
We have more details about our rankings report at http://moz.com/help/pro/rankings. If that doesn't answer your question, it's best to submit a ticket to the help desk and see if there's some type of error. Thanks!

Different Report Branding for each campaign
Quick Q: Do Pro Plus/Elite memberships allow you to setup different report branding for each campaign? Say for example I wanted one campaign to be branded with the logos of an agency I was doing work for and another to have my logos on. Or is there just a single general branding option that covers all campaigns? Thanks.

Ranking report and language
Unfortunately I noticed a huge problem in rank tracker amd ranking report. My site is in italian and I configurate the ranking report using google italy. The problem is that the ranking is related to www.google.it but using a browser set with english language!! Infact for a specific keyword the ranking position is 8 (using english) and 12 (using italian). This is a huge problem for me and makes useless any report! F
