Using Keyword Difficulty Report along with OSE to calculate SEO Pricing?
-
Has anyone thought of or created a algorithm or Excel function that uses the results from the Keyword Difficulty Report percentage of difficulty and SERP ranking analysis set against potential client's own OSE rankings to come up with an estimated SEO pricing tool?
-
I might use the keyword difficulty tool to determine which jobs I would not want to accept - due to lack of time and staff - to attack a brutal, maybe impossible target.
I might also use it to get some idea of how difficult a job might be.
However, the best data that you might have is a chart that compares keyword difficulty of your previous clients, their relative starting point in the SERPs and the amount of money that was required to produce whatever result was achieved.
Then a variable that only you can answer is your relative effectiveness in different niches. If I was given the job of competition for "hydraulic jacks" I might know exactly how to approach that and have industry knowledge, quick resources and allies at hand - these will enable me to jump right up the SERPs. However, if I get the job of attacking "easy chairs" I might be really challenged because I don't have the same level of knowledge and support - plus the competitive landscape will be very different.

How do you explain this in this Keyword Difficulty Report?
Hello here, I am trying to understand how my site virtualsheetmusic.com can better compete for the keyword "sheet music download" where we used to be 3rd until a few months ago, and now we are at the 5th spot. But here is my specific question: I can't find an explanation why two of our competitors are ranked before us at the 3rd and 4th spot. Please, look at the attached image (very wide) which shows the Keyword Difficulty Report for this keyword. You can also download a PDF of it here below: http://www.virtualsheetmusic.com/storage/keyword-sheet-music-download.pdf We are at the 5th spot, and the two competitors highlighted in pink are the ones I am talking about: I am trying to understand why they are ranking better than us, despite our metrics look much better than theirs. In fact, if I look at the metrics in the report, I can't find an explanation to justify their outrank against us, so there must be something else that the report is missing. Any thoughts about this issue are very welcome! Thank you in advance for any help. Sincerely,

What SEO Tools Do You Use?
Things changed a bit for me when Raven Stopped using google and SemRush data and I haven't exactly found a solution I'm happy with so Just wanted to use what people use alongside SEOMoz, or what they use instead of certain parts of SEOMoz. Before I was using Raven Tools, Screaming Frog SEO Crawler but currently I'm using Screaming Frog SEO Crawler, SEOMoz (trial), and SerpIQ (trial).

More complete campaign reports
SEOMoz campaigns include a lot more data than can be sent via email automatically with the custom reporting feature. So what do people do to send that data to clients? Do you not include it? Or export reports manually and send them on? Or something else?
