How do we use SEOmoz to track Local Searches? Is there a way to set the location from which the campaign tracker is "searching"?

It seems that there is no way to set a parameter for location. In Places, I'm able to define my targeted region. How does SEOmoz mimic that localization?

Thank for any help!

That can be a little confusing! Sorry about that. We will only pull rankings for Universal results for keywords that are rankings in the main SERP. So if you type in the keyword ‘seattle pizza’ we will only pull from the few places results we see in the overall SERP. To get universal results you need to have a location in the keyword. So to see local rankings for ‘REI’ you will need to have a keyword with set up that says ‘boston REI’ to we can find it in the universal results.

Hi Chris,

I know this is an older thread, but I see you're still a Pro member, so I wanted to let you know we can now track local rankings. See our post at http://moz.com/blog/local-rankings-in-moz-analytics. Hope this helps!
