Default Rankings Report

Hello,

Does anyone know of any good rank report services they use for seo clients? I would like to be able to plug in my clients domains and monitor them, and export a report to tell them how they are doing.

Thanks! Nick

Just create 4 columns for Keyword, Google Ranking, Yahoo ranking and MSN Ranking.

I believe you mean to say that you need detailed analysis of your clients domain.

So this would probably include the following terms:

1. Targeted Keyword.
2. Google Competition for that Keyword (i.e. How many websites shown up on Google.com when searched for that Query)
3. Analyze K.E.I (Keyword Effectiveness Index)
4. Use Google's Keyword Suggestion Tool to find out the Competitor Analysis for that Keyword. You'll get a rough idea of how much that Keyword in Searched for.
5. Use WordTracker Keyword Suggestion Tool (Free Trail) to get the better view of the keyword.

Wanna knw more... PM Me.

Nick, I use this program: http://www.ibusinesspromoter.com/

I am not an SEO expert by any stretch of the imagination but this program is very extensive and gives you some excellent reports. It was suggested to me by the company I use for SEO.

I use WebCEO. The rank monitoring and reporting functions of this software are worth every penny of the software cost. I've even showed prospective clients sample reports and those played a role in me getting their business...

For paying seo clients, I agree with Brody - WebCEO is a good route to go. The presentation is well worth the cost when you consider that alone can help pick up new clients and provide a very professional image with existing ones.

For the not so caring, and those doing the bust open excel spreadsheet route - an efficient and free route to go with monitoring your rankings is DigitalPoints free service/tool

For the seo client ranking reports, try to focus their attention away from specific rankings and more towards the referrals that are delivering visitors and more important conversions/roi. Google analytics, etc.
