      Hi All

      Can you please clarify this for me as its getting a little frustrating.  I get the weekly reports from the SEO Pro campaign tool and from one week to the next it keeps changing the ranking.

      For example

      cheap a boards

      For this page I have a on page score of A through the campaign:

      http://www.cheapsnapframes.co.uk/cheap-a-boards.html

      Last weeks report showed it was an A and then I get this weeks snapshot after the crawl and its saying its now an F but when I click on the link on the onpage tool it then is showing me an A and then changes the ranking again on the campaign.

      I am seeing this a lot - why is it happening?

      thanks

      Tracy

        The A and F problem is probably a little bug in the pro tool. Maybe try reporting that and file a bug report.

        The rankings that keep going up and down is pretty normal. I manage a couple of sites and I see rankings go up and down all the time. The thing you want it to see an upwards trend. News or other universal search results might push your result more down, changes in the algorithm, etc. They all influence your ranking. So I wouldn't look at it week on week, I would look at the bigger picture and look for a up going trend.

          If you could send help@seomoz.org a note about going from a to f, that would be great, as it sounds like that could be a bug.
