I have a new website and would like to use the keywords my competitors are using and was wondering the best way to take a look using Moz Pro?
-
The website is www.fapwrap.com - it's a new adult wall decals website. [editor's note: may not be safe for some workplaces]
The wall decals we have are obviously a bit more niche than the bigger competitors, but I want to get into the first page to see how it helps us.
I'm slowly taking over some kws like "xbox wraps" and "ps4 wraps" but those have low search volume and I feel like "wall decals" will help - though it's highly competitive.
Suggestions?
I just kinda want to plug in my competition and pick from their list of existing kws..... Ha.

Cool JohnnyRoc,
Don't trim unnecessarily. Consider canonical tagging content groupings rather than deleting pages. It's a practice used, for example, when you're trying to rank for "patriotic tshirts" that come in multiple sizes.

Awesome! I appreciate it.
I'm brand new to MOZ Q&A, so apologies on late response.
I have the entire SEO Powersuite from Link-Assistant and I'm trying to harness it all.
I really want to know what my competitors keyword for so that it simply gives me suggestions.
Right now, I'm actually moving up the charts super fast for a good chunk of our keywords, but I need to find variations and.... well, reverse engineer their success.
For instance, I don't know that I'll ever hit page 1 for "wall decal" or "wall decals" but I sure hope I can build relevance.
I'm also about to trim my site a bit because its a store and I don't want repeat content due to similar product.

Johnnyroc,
Take a look at the answer to the question asked immediately after yours - "is there a tool that I can use to scrape and see [competitor's] meta tags". The answers provided will also help you learn more about what your competitors are doing.
-
You can also run each of your competitors in Screaming Frog and get ideas of their keyword focus based on their meta data.
-
I'm not aware of a way to do that using the Moz toolset. Try SEMRush. You can plug in the URL of your competitors and see their top keywords.

Question About creating seperate websites or using a subdomain or just subfolders...Thanks!
I am working with a company who has created a reservation software...We have been advertising this software aggressively and have been doing well with companies coming on board...Let's call the company ABC and the url was ABC.com...Now they are launching a customer facing side of things that will have all the clients listed for consumers to book at their location...So an online marketplace...Like VRBO or AirBnB...They are taking the name of the software company and making it the url for the marketplace site...So now the marketplace is ABC.com and we need to figure out if we go with a new site for the software side or if we use subdomains or a subfolder.... Do we go with ABCSoftware.com - New root domain ABC.software.com - Subdomain ABC.com/software - Subfolder There are a few other intricacies with this...Not all the companies that use the software will be on the marketplace side...And people who book through the company but using the software have a url embedded on their site that books there directly...This booking costs the company less than a booking that comes through the marketplace so this needs to be kept separate... Thanks for the help everyone!

New to Moz, need some probably basic answers about Keywords, Linking, Competitors and General SEO
Hi, So I have quite a lot of data colelcted about my site now, regarding keyword research, page crawling and competitor research ect. But I find myself second guessing myself about what I have done and what to do next. I have done basic research for as many relevant keywords I could think of to my site, including branded and non branded terms. If the main competitive keywords for my niche are very competitive, shall I start doing more research for long tail keywords and only try to rank for them? Does is matter how many keywords I am doing research for? Does is matter how many keywords I try to optimise for each webpage? Are the amount of branded keywords I am researching skewing my results? As they are all ranked #1, but nearly all of the non branded keywords are much further down the list... Once I have decided what keywords are worth trying to ranking for for each page, are the techniques to actually rank more highly for them - Title, H1 Tag, Description, Meta Data, Fresh Content and using the keywords on the page? Or are there more techniques I haven't heard of? Under Keyword Rankings - I noticded that some of my keywords are directing to specific pages, like "Cavity Waxes" is directing to the URL ending in .com/cavity-waxes - How do you assign the keywords im researching to specific URLs? - Or does Moz do it automatically? As most of my keywords seem to be unassigned to any URL, is that because they are not ranking highly enough? How do I best use the data collected through Moz? Good practices? Techniques? Tips and Tricks? What is the best practice for finding potential link partners and asking them for mutual linking? Techniques for finding partners that are likely to link with us, but still provides link juice. I must apologise for this long-winded set of questions, but these are troubling me! Any help would be greatly appreciated, Kind regards, Max Johnson

Best Automated Report?
I would like to implement a reporting function to my website to offer a bit of value and information to potential clients. I am thinking along the lines of a simple input form to include a business name and url. The output would be a clean, branded (my business, url, phone) report that shows opportunities, lowest lying fruit, keywords most prominent, and any errors. I found this site - http://www.analyticsseo.com/ but, it seems pretty expensive. Does anyone have any suggestions on another suite that might work? Many thanks!

Does the Moz Toolset offer anything like Raven's Backlink Explorer from fresh index
It seems like a useful feature where I can see what backlinks look like right now vs. the last monthly Moz dataset update. That is mostly because my site is new, but wondered if I was missing something. Thanks, Steven

Tracking Keyword Positions
Hello! I've been working with the various Google Docs Spreadsheets out there taking advantage of web scraping using xml and the seomoz api. I want to be able to track keyword rank by week, I've been playing around but can't seem to get it nailed on, I'm looking to put keyword in column 1, domain in col 2 and keyword rank on google uk in col 3. Anybody done/seen anything like this in a G spreadsheet? Cheers Jamie
