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.

Hi Ilse,
If you are a PRO member, there's a super simple way to do this within the campaign platform.
1. Start a new campaign, and at the very beginning you'll see a screen like this:
<fieldset class="setup">
Which parts of your domain would you like to track for this campaign?
<label for="campaign_campaign_type_subdomain"> Subdomain</label>
Track one subdomain.
Examples: www.seomoz.org, guides.seomoz.org, pro.seomoz.org
<label for="campaign_campaign_type_rootdomain"> Root Domain</label>
Track at root domain level. Track all the different subdomains within this root domain.
Example: The root domain seomoz.org has www.seomoz.org, guides.seomoz.org, and pro.seomoz.org all as subdomains within the root domain. If we discover pages on any of the subdomains during our crawl, they'll be included in the data we display.
<label for="campaign_campaign_type_subfolder"> Subfolder</label>
Track a specific subfolder. Note that the subfolder path must resolve or we will not be able to crawl the content of that folder.
Examples: www.seomoz.org/tools, guides.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-search-engine-optimization
</fieldset>
2. Make sure to pick subfolder, the last choice. Then enter the specific folder path for your campaign, like www. domain.com/za
This will track rankings for this specific subfolder only. Easy as pie!

Ability to track previous PA?
Hi Mozzers, I know I am able to view my DA over time, but how about my Page Authority? I have no problem tracking this on my own in excel, but it would be nice if I could find a historical record of our PA for certain pages so I have something to reference. Thanks!

Local Vs Organic Search Keyword Ranking
This isn't a question. It's a simple suggestion that I'm hoping will inspire a change at Seomoz. I love what this site does. What it helps us do as community. What it helps us achieve collectively. This suggestion is based on that love... I think we all can agree that the rankings between local reviews and organic reviews are very different beasts entirely. They should then be treated this way within the Seomoz data with separate reports. The vast majority of reputable small businesses don't care about national rankings, but would rather get to the top of the local charts with their 5-star reviews. Can you imagine the power of a report that is dedicated to helping you shape your client's results to achieve this? I like seeing the results of local in the keyword report, but we need a report dedicated to local search to make a difference in our rankings. With all of the recent chatter on local search, I'm surprised this isn't already available.

Rankings csv export doesn't show local rank
Is there a way to enable this in the settings somewhere? or is this simply not an available feature yet? Would be really great if there was an extra column in the report that shows local rank, as 93 of our top 100 keywords we track are all blended search results and a lot of the time this shows really inaccurate results because of this.

Cannot see Bing rank in Campaign
Hi guys I have included Bing en-GB in my engine list for rankings on one of my websites, however, the actual rank placements are not showing at all in the results, even though a search in Bing shows my site is top on some of the keywords and near top on some of the others. Am I doing something wrong here? Thanks Nick
