Is there a problem with Weekly Ranking report this week?

[KNect365]

I just received my weekly ranking report.  2 Up, 0 down, 8 the same this week.  However, last week my page was #2 for "innovation conference" and this week you report "not in top 50."  My first thought was penalty, but when I searched and removed personalization, we were still #2 for that search query.  So, something must be wrong with the report - either we're 1 down or "not in the top 50 is wrong."

Anthony, check and see if it is the same URL you have set up to track in the weekly report as you see in the SERPs.  The same thing happened to me the other day, but it was just Google replaced my current ranking page with a different category page on my site.  So, i was still ranking in the same position, but for a different page on my site.

i hope this helps,

Thanks for the suggestion, Cyle. It turns out it is the same URL from one week to the next.  I still have my ranking (phew!) but those 2 elements of the report are at odds with Google, and with each other.  If SEOmoz is reporting "no results in top 50" shouldn't they also be reporting "1 down" if last week the same URL was ranked #2?

Anthony,

What is the name of your site?

thanks,

iirusa.com and the page that ranks for innovation conference is iirusa.com/feiusa/fei-home.xml

I see you ranking #2 in the SERPs for that term.

Thanks!  So now I'm looking for an explanation as to why my weekly ranking report says that I'm not in the top 50...

Hi Anthony,

Just checking to make sure that this is resolved. If it hasn't sorted itself out, please email help@seomoz.org and open up a ticket. Do let them know which Google site / which country you're targeting.

Thanks!
