Is anyone else's ranking jumping?
-
Rankings have been jumping across 3 of our websites since about 24 October. Is anyone seeing similar?
For example ... jumps from position 5 to 20 on one day, then back to 5 for 3 days and then back to 20 for a day
I'm trying to figure out if it's algorithm based or if my rank checker has gone mad. I can't replicate the same results if I search incognito or in a new browser, everything always looks stable in the SERPs if I do the search myself

This often happens during Google algorthim updates, it might have been that Google was rolling out a very large update around this time?

Google has been pushing out quality content algorithm updates the past month or so. We've been jumping all around but mostly positive jumps since we do produce quality content. I don't think anything is wrong, just riding the Google roller coaster. Give the SERPs a few weeks to settle before you make your next move.

It appears Google has been making some changes to their search engine algorithms over the last couple weeks. I use a bunch of different tools including MOZ Pro and have seen many changes in search rankings across multiple sites.
Volatility today October, 31 is about as high as I have seen it. Here is a link to the MozCast which is a volatility tool.
I hope it helps you.
Best Regards

Thank could certainly be the case, as traffic has been relatively stable. I'll ask my rank checker what they think.
Thanks Tom!

This may have something to do with Google's recent change to show results as country-specific by default, rather than whichever TLD you use (.co.uk, .de, .fr etc).
This is causing a few rank checkers to throw off a few wild results. I've seen all the major ones be affected by this.
If you can't recreate the results and traffic is normal, don't worry too much, as the software people will be making fixes soon.
FYI - if you want to get round Google's change and still get specific results from a specific country, you can add:
&gl=us
&gl=uk
&gl=fr etc.To the end of your query string. Replace the country code with whichever you need.

Only one of our main keywords has made a huge jump when checking today, we hit a bit of a low in late September and hit 25 now it's jumped to 15 after little movement (varying between #22 - #28)... Not sure whether this could be algorithm based but certainly caught my attention today!

Should I document rankings from an Incognito Window?
Mozzers, what are your thoughts on documenting SEO results from an incognito window? Does anyone have any articles they can recommend that talk about this subject? Is it better to document results from the normal window or from an incognito window?

Will more landing pages with related keywords improve ranking of main keyword?
Hi all, We are in the process of creating new landing pages and noticed something what our competitors been following with landing pages. They have created multiple landing pages targeting the related keywords of a main topic / main keyword. Like "seo defined", "seo history", "seo benefits", "seo strategies", "types of seo", etc being "SEO" as main keyword or main topic. Will this works? Thanks

Delay between being indexed and ranking for new pages.
I've noticed with the last few pages i've built that there's a delay between them being indexed and them actually ranking. Anyone else finding that? And why is it like that? Not much of an issue as they tend to pop up after a week or so, but I am curious. Isaac.

Will Ranking Reports be Affected with the new Google Changes?
For example: Raven stopped use of scraped Google, SEMRush data on Jan. 2 Raven stopped offering unauthorized Google SERP rankings and keyword data (a.k.a. scraped Google data) on Jan. 2, 2013. The change included the retirement of the SERP Tracker and the elimination of SEMRush data from the Raven platform. Raven has released new SEO performance reports that make it easy to show clients the impact of campaigns to improve organic traffic. Raven will continue to upgrade reports through the year. We thank the many customers who continue their business with Raven. More details about the SEO performance reports and other recent releases are available Is SEOMoz protected in some way? Or will you have to give up rankings reports too?

Privacy page ranking above home page in serps

Google.uk rankings plummet, .com improves. What to do?
Hey Guys, Seems so much has changed with international SEO I'm not sure what to do with our site. We have a huge site with many country level landing pages that perform very well on google.com searches (IE; keyword + Jamaica) etc. We are not using a .co.uk version of our site and now our rankings have plummeted in the UK. Should we just make a .co.uk with similar (or the exact same content) or is there some newer strategy to follow?

Does the browers type affect rankings?
This may be a rooky question so apologies in advance if it is! A client of mine has asked why his site's rank is different when he searches for it from his iPhone or computer (where he uses IE) and also on Bing. Obviously I know that there will be differences between Bing and Google so I can explain that to him. But he seems to be implying that the different browsers are affecting the results on his iPhone and computer. I've tried this myself using Firefox and IE and on Firefox the site ranks page 1 but on IE it ranks page 3 (both using Google). Is this likely to do with the browser having information about my past search habits or is it actually the browser affecting the SERP? Again, sorry if this is a stupid question! Thanks in advance.
