Search Volume Discepancies
-
I was doing research on keywords and found significant discrepancies between the search volumes on Moz and sites such as Spyfu and Semrush. What could be the reason behind these differences?
-
They're using different data sources and basing their assumptions on different metrics. Sometimes it can also be a matter of the location, if it's global search volume or on a national level.

Why does moz give different page authority to the same page if a visit comes from adwords vs organic search?
When clicking on an adwords ad the page the landing page has a page authority of 26. When clicking on organic search to the same exact landing page the page authority is 37. Why is this. Does moz or, more importantly Google see these as the same or separate pages? Thanks Tom

Google Site search operator showing different results than Search Console

Competitor getting External Links from search.aol.com
Recently, I noticed that one of the competitors I track within my Moz campaign received about 12 new inbound links. As a result, there DA jumped about 10 points. I reviewed these new external links and was surprised to see that they are all "search.aol.com/aol/search?query= ..." with Link Anchor Text that is good for the industry we compete in. Can anyone tell me why these are being counted as "Inbound Links". It just doesn't seem right. Is this some sort of black hat seo tactic?

Can a search query return more than one SERP feature for a single keyword?
In Moz's 'SERP Features' section within campaigns, it shows each of my tracked keywords as being eligible for multiple SERP features - sometimes as many as 5 or 6. Does this mean that Google could display a few different rich snippets for these keywords, or just that it could return one of those highlighted?

Bing Search volume 0 is this good or bad?
So this might be a stupid question, but that whole no such thing as a stupid questions applies here. I am trying to narrow down keywords for title tags and on page optimization. I am focusing on my local, instate SEO only. So no nationwide searches, just local. When I add in my state, so Colorado then keyword It shows 0 matches. When I add Keyword then Colorado a few matches But there is a difficulty rating of 30% or so. Would this mean that it would be good to go after this? or bad because no one searches for my term? Then when I add my keyword, and no state, 6000 matches. But would this mean everyone and there brother is going after it? So unless you are a big brand, stay away? Thank you for your help. I am just trying to make sure I am using it right. Chris
