      Hi All,

      I have asked this question before here  but haven't got any convincing answers. And now I am starting to see this in couple of my other projects .

      I'm not sure how many facing similar issue like mine but its bit tricky.

      Our company is based in Melbourne,Australia and we set MOZ campaign setting to google.com.au . The weekly moz ranking for one of the client keyword showed as Position Rank#29. But when I Checked Manually it is Ranking #3. So why does the moz show as 29 ?

      **Keyword: **car exhaust

      Website: www.professionalexhaust.com.au

      To Replicate, I set the google search to google.com.au and on Search Tools I changed location as **Australia ( by default its set to Melbourne ). **When I did search now my result came in Page 3 - No.29 rank.

      Note: By default the Google browser picks the location as Melbourne and gives localized result which is not tracked by MOZ. Now how do I track this in Moz to show localized ranking results which my customer see. I cant report this ranking to client, else I have to do a manual report which is time consuming .

      Note : This is Tested in InCognito mode with all cache cleared.

        Hi there!

        Our tools are only setup to show what most users will see globally. The only way to try and target local rankings is to use geo-targeted keywords so you would use "car exhaust melbourne" which shows up as #2 in my search on google.com.au. We are researching a solution for local rankings but have no ETA on when I will have more information about that.

        Hope this helps!
