Comments on: In Case You Missed It: Your Rank Tracking Reports Are Now Useless

Ranktracker have recently included the ability to manually correct the rankings in a workspace so I can only presume that this is a concession related to Venice. Nice to have this feature but I think many SEO’s will still find it useless since they are working with companies across the county and don’t necessarily have access to the location specific results anyway.

Is there ever going to be a day when we will return to reading things because they are interesting, and in turn writing things because people care about them? Bloggers have become pleasers of people instead of the original intention which was to speak our minds. Now the intention is to speak your mind, but only in a way that will drive people to your sight and using the words needed to do so. I would rather have one person read my blog for its content than read it because they mistakenly punched in a keyword and were guided there. Thanks but I will stick to writing for the love of what I am saying.

Hi Lucas, Thanks for the fantastic post. Even though I have a deep understanding in SEO and even offering it as a service I didn’t realise you could set a location. It’s certainly a game changer but in most cases I actually see it as a benefit if more people start to use it. Especially for local clients.

Nice post lukas,
I have to say that i think you might be exaggerating. Google is constantly updating its algorithms,and the rank trackers that can keep up are the ones that survive. I am using rankranger and their results have been accurate throughout Venice and all of the other updates. Also, there are first time searchers who personalization is much less significant for, and for them regular optimization and tracking still remain relevant.
