      I use  Cute Rank to check my keywords ranking in Google, but after last update seomoz is showing some of keyword ranked much higher than Cute Rank. I checked them manually and they are on positions showed by Cute Rank and not by Seomoz.

      Can someone explain me why is that?

        Hi Damian,

        Don't be offended by the questions but... Were you checking with Personal Web Search turned off? And you use a proxy for Cuterank?

            Ah - well - please read this cuterank forum post.  Let us know if that fixes things.

              Yeah that makes sense but doesn't work.

              I did what they advised, cleared and turn off search history.

              Few keywords, mainly product names change their position up and down for few places, but highlighted in the screenshot didn't move.

              There is a huge difference between position 35 in seomoz and 97 in cuterank for keyword: funny gift ideas

                Sorry that didn't fix it.  This is how I'd check the rank of that phrase in Google Ireland

                What does that give you?

                • Why are the rankings of my keywords different to rankings from other programmes such as 'Access my Lan' and 'Firefly'? Does SEOMoz count 'Google Places and Maps' in their rank count? Im thinking this could explain the difference
