Seomoz suggetions implemented but keyword rankings dropping.
-
We have been with SEOMOZ for just a couple of weeks now.
We impemented all the recommendations made in page analysis and crawl errors but since making changes we have started to fall in ranking for these keywords. Should we undo all his work or sit it out.
Why would our rankings fall if these changes are for the better ?
Thanks

Thanks for taking the time to have a look.
Not too sure I can do much with the re directs ( except the .com ) as it is a limtation of the company hosting the site.
Will try a little more content and link variation too.

OK in 2 seconds - your redirects are incorrect
http://www.kerryblu.co.uk redirects to http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/
but
http://kerryblu.co.uk/ redirects to http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/index.asp
Aslo change the redirect on kerryblu.com to point to correct url
Where else might you have got this wrong? are you running Xenu or IIS crawls?
You also have too little content on your pages
http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/bridal-earrings-2-c.asp
http://www.kerryblu.co.uk/crystal-allure-bridal-jewellery-set-869-p.asp
I see you have been linkbuilding with the term "Kerry Blu - wedding accessories" make sure your link text diversity is natural

I agree with Stephen and Andrea.
Sit it out. I would allow 2 more weeks for a powerful site and a month for a site that is new or without a lot of connectivity.

Thanks
The website is www.kerryblu.co.uk
Google has crawled the site site the changes were implemented and the result appeared to be a sudden drop in ranking.

Ranking don't always increase right away (although it's ironic that they seem to drop fast, eh). Google will need to recrawl and reprocess your information. SEO "stuff" doesn't always make sense - and, while I am sure you did everything correctly, there could be something else going on.
As Stephan posed, if you are willing to share your URL, someone may be able to peak and see if they notice something you haven't.

Sit it out.
What is the url?

SeoMoz keyword page grader report card
Hi Ive recently 301 redirected old pages/urls to new pages/urls due to a site redesign. The seomoz kw report card is still reporting the old urls though with a significantly reduced score for most pages (i.e. from A's to now C's, from B to now D's etc). Does this mean mozbot is following the 301's & its actually the new urls being graded as such or is it referring to the old pages ? I will be adding the new urls to report card shortly but just interested in clarifying the above since i would have thought, if it is the old pages, they would not be reporting any score for those, or its scoring the new pages ? Many Thanks Dan

Why are results different on Rank Tracker tool and New Rankings Weekly Reports?
Good Morning... Every week i get an email from SEO Moz that is showing me where the keywords i am tracking are currently in the SERPS (New Rankings and On-Page Reports)... Is there a reason that the current rank shown on these emails would be so different than what is shown when i use SEO Moz's rank tracker? For example, it shows one keyword has a rank of 48 (via email) and a rank of 16 through the rank tracker. What would cause such a great discrepancy? Thanks

SEOMoz ranking reports inaccurate for Google?
So I have notice that, at least for some searches, the rankings shown in SEOMoz's ranking reports are meaningless. I assume this is due to blended search results including local search. For example, I have a client, who is ranked 3rd overall for one of his most important search terms, but his ranking is based upon his local result (there are 2 organic search results and then he is the first local result). The SEOMoz report shows him being ranked 12th. Anyway I count down to the 12th ranked site (including local search, not including local search) his site is not there. In fact the only place it is in the top 3 pages is in the local result. As a local marketing consultant, almost all of my clients are looking to be found for "Jackson Hole" this or that, or "Jackson, WY" this or that, so this is a pretty critical issue to me. I would appreciate feedback. Thanks!

Does SEOmoz have a keyword visibility report / tool?
Know of a tool where I can show the overall success of a set of keywords, us vs. the competition? A visibility report where a #1 ranking is worth 30 points, #2 is worth 29, so on and so on down to #30 worth 1 point, outside of the top 30 is worth nothing. (something like this). Trying to show an overall visibility scorecard, not sure if I can do it here or with some other tool. Didn't see it on Raven. Thanks!
