Incorrect URL showing for my tracked keyword
-
I am tracking my keywords in Moz Pro under rankings. The URL that shows on the Tracked Keywords Overview page is not the URL i am optimising for my keyword. How do I change this? Can I change the URL linked to my tracked keyword?

Hey Lida!
Thanks for reaching out to us!
Our tool functions in such a way that it will find the highest ranking URL on your site for that specific Keyword. I understand your frustration, and it appears to be quite a common problem. However, as Randy points out in this excellent Whiteboard Friday Video - there are ways that you can try to deal with it!
To sum up the video: Is there an alternative relevant page on your website which you would prefer coming up for this keyword? Perhaps this page is experiencing indexing or crawling or content or link issues. (Rand talks about these in great detail). Rand then goes on to explain how you can bolster that page's potential ranking signals, or even to down-grade the non relevant page. If all else fails, Rand presents a final potential solution... Check it out!
To find the other pages that your site in ranking for you have the option in Moz Pro to choose 'Keyword Performance' from the drop-down (See image) and you will be able to see the other URL's that are ranking for that specific Keyword. This could help with the technical SEO side of things as mentioned above.
Maybe some of the SEO pros in our community can advise further!
If you do have any questions about our tools that I can help with, just send them my way — I'm more than happy to help!
Have a great day!
Eli

Keyword List issue
Hi, I have created a keyword list with 500 phrases and your software has been set as "Gathering Data" for hours now. I have closed, re-opened, refreshed multiple times and still nothing. Does it really take that long or is there some sort of issue?

How can keyword explorer help me search on a more local level?
I am a total novice at this. I am taking the tutorial and the first thing she addresses is Keyword Explorer. It makes sense to me, but what doesn't is that it asks me to look for keywords in USA. I need to explore keywords on a local level. Anyone out there who can help me with this? am I over my head with Moz Pro if I am a complete novice?

Subdomain not showing up in ranking reports?
Hi Folks, Apologies for the newbie question here, but hope any of the experts here can help. Our blog resides on a subdomain, and our blog increasingly plays an important role in driving traffic to our site. However the subdomain does not seem to show up in our keyword rankings report on Moz pro. Does this report only include URLs on the main site? Is there a way to monitor how our blog ranks on our keywords somewhere else? Thanks in advance all! Regards Patrick
