      I recently updated a website and it seems as though my campaign results are not accurate. I feel that the more I learn about SEO, the less I know (if that makes sense?). Every time I check my campaign results for this site I feel like I am missing something but just don't know where to begin. The site is aphroditedesserts.com

      For example, "aphrodite desserts" is one of my keywords. When I type that into Google, it automatically pulls up the site as #1. But in my campaign, it shows that "aphrodite desserts" does not rank in the top 50 for google. Why is this? (I know there is a lot I could do to improve the SEO keywords on this site, but I am limited because of the client's budget.) However, if I could just get a handle on the answers for these types of issues, I think I would feel much more confident as an SEO specialist. Right now I feel more like a fraud. =(

      Any insight into what may be causing this would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

        1. Try logging out or using a completely different computer - Google modifies your results according to your past search behavior.
        2. Double check you are comparing the same country version of Google.  You may be searching Google.co.uk and tracking Google.com
        3. It could be getting a boost from local search - try the search with a friend in a different part of the country.

          Thank you for the tips. I tried each suggestion but still get the same results. Although the issue is not resolved, I feel better being able to weed some things out. Thanks again for taking the time to make some recommendations!

            When I google "Aphrodite Desserts" I get the site (and the new SERP 12-pack!) as number 1 as well. Is this your first report? If so, give it a week or two and it should start showing up. Sometimes it can be stubborn.

              Well that's great news; thanks for checking! No, this isn't my first report. The re-design launched mid-July, so I'm pretty sure that I've given things enough time to show up. Maybe I should give it through August?

                Sounds like it's time to submit a ticket to the help desk. Email them at help@seomoz.org with the query in question and the destination URL. I know there were some issues with UK rank tracking, I'm not sure about rank tracking otherwise. The help desk would be able to tell you though.

                  Thank you for suggesting this. I didn't want to submit a ticket if I was doing something wrong (which is probably the issue). However, I cannot seem to resolve this so I think you're right; I'm going to submit a ticket. Thanks!

                  • My account recently got deactivated due to billing issues. I reactivated my account, but all of my campaigns are gone. Is there a way I can get back my campaigns without having to redo all of them??
