What's the best way to track broad search terms?
-
I'm finding out that Moz only tracks exact match results for key terms. Does anyone know of a good tool for tracking broad search terms? So for example: keyword1 keyword2 keyword3 as opposed to "keyword1 keyword2 keyword3"?
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!-David

Okay got it! Thank you!

I believe if you just set it up, it will run report next day (or in two days), but then it's gonna be weekly. I don't think there is a way to force to update reports.
-
Ahh! I bet that's it! I did have http://lashgroup.com in originally and then changed it but not until that report had been generated. Good eye! So can I initiate another report or do I need to wait another week or whatever?
-
Alright, i think i found your problem.
Do you have lashgroup campaign set up for http://lashgroup.com?
instead of http://www.lashgroup.com? Do you have proper redirects from non-www to www version (or vice versa)?
Check screenshots.
P.S. As far as i understand, moz is looking for exact match of domain when retrieving rankings for your reports. so, www and non-www make a lot of difference.

I am looking at a report from a campaign but I don't think it's a time based error. I think Lashgroup has been #1 position for these search terms for quite a while.
-
Are you checking moz's rank tracker or ranking report in campaign?
If it's in campaign, then it might be due to weekly updates - rankings are not updated every day, so 51+ rank might be from previous week (or even month if you're looking at monthly report).
-
Hmm..
I tried to recreate the results you're talking about and here is what i get:
chrome - ranks #1
moz - ranks #1

Well, hopefully this provides more details: We have Lashgroup in as one of our competitors and for the keyword phrase: "copay program providers" moz.com is saying that Lashgroup is 51+ although when searching that phrase in Chrome using incognito I see a link to the Lasgroup website as the #1 link in the search results page. So...what's up with that? Am I missing something?

Hello, my friend.
I think you are mistaken. Moz, indeed, tracks rankings for broad match. And it makes sense, since users usually google without putting any google search operators (like double quotes).
And here is the proof: I have two searches for how car fast - broad and exact. I used nonsense phrase on purpose. Then i went to moz rank tracker and did the same search. The results show that MOZ does indeed broad search.
See screenshots attached.

So exact match for you is "copay program providers"
You then want to track each word on its own? or are you trying to work out the long trail options?
As I'm just trying to work out what bored search teams for you is.
-
Oh sure! Here you go: copay program providers
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm just trying to work this out a little more. Can you give a sample of keywords you want as exact match and broad?
This post on moz is really good but it will take time and work within Google Analytics but again if you can give me an example of what you're trying to track it will help alot.

Crawl-test not doesn't finish
Hello, I have used this crawl-test on 2 website 3 days ago, and it hasn't finished yet. I'm wondering if the crawler is on an infinite loop, or has crashed without sending back an error. I could re-launch the test, but if it's really still crawling, I don't want to loose any work in progress. Is there any way to check the status of a crawl?

Moz Crawl Showing Duplicate Content But It's Not?!
Unfortunately I can't give out the URL, but here's the deal... I have two URL's which have completely different content on them but are being crawled as duplicate content. Any Idea how that would happen? I'm not seeing any errors in WMT's. Has anyone seen this before? Is the duplicate content reporting based on a % of the page content matching as the same?
