      Hi, i am very puzzled about the rankings report. For some reason the past couple of weeks it is giving wrong information

      for example, my site www.in2town.co.uk the report says that the keyword gastric band hypnosis is eight in google on page one but when i have checked i cannot find it.

      It also says the word gastric band hypnotherapy is sixth place in google on page one

      can anyone please let me know what is going on

        Hi Diane,

        What geo settings do you have for the rank tracker, and what geo settings are you using in your browser? Which Google are you using?

        FYI, for google.com and a geo of Seattle, I'm seeing the Claire Hegarty site in fifth place for that keyword right now.

            not being funny Keri but yet again you are not reading the question properly, nobody is talking about www.clairehegarty.co.uk site, if you read the question i am talking about www.in2town.co.uk and i have the settings correct.

              Hi Diane,

              I'm sorry, I didn't mean to come across that way. I had read the question, but had not seen mention of which Google address you were using, where you had your geotargeting in your browser set, nor where the geotargeting was set in your campaign. While I waited for that information, I was mentioning as an aside that I saw your other site at the fifth place in Google US from Seattle.

              Our help desk is probably the best to help you with figuring out why what you are seeing is different. They'll want to know the same information I've asked regarding how you are checking (logged in/not logged in, what Google location you're using, etc) and they can look into your SEOmoz account and get more information there, too.

                I just spoke with the help desk. They can look into your account from there more easily. In general though, some of the difference in this last report may be because Panda refreshed again on Friday and there have been some major changes in the SERPs. If you report ran on Wednesday, and you checked on Saturday, that could be on explanation.
