Market Samurai and ACRank Analysis

Market Samurai Review – SEO competition module

 

Market Samurai SEO Competition Module

I was doing backlink research in Market Samurai and noticed that it was no longer using Google pagerank in the backlink data tool.

Instead, I found Majestic SEO’s ACRank tool and had no idea what the data meant.

Market Samurai Blog

I first went to the Market Samurai blog ro read over the post on the new recovery changes the Eugene Ware and his team had implemented.

And in there I found the reference to the ACRank tool mention, but still had no idea what it really meant.

Majestic SEO Glossary

So I went to Majectic SEO and found the glossary of terms and went over a few hundred times to figure out what it was measuring.

That’s when I decided to do what I always do when I want to learn something.

I made a video.

Take a look and make sure I got it right. I’m pretty sure I did but you never know. There is always a nugget that passes through the sieve and I am fallible!

If I got it , the ACRank tool parses external links going to a web page into 15 different number sets.

A scale from 1 to 15, 15 being the most authoritative since in order to rank there you need over 1,417,176 incoming links.

Anyway you get the picture, the more you have links going to a page from an external root domain, the higher you move up the scale.

So Market Samurai, takes those ACRank data and uses that to measure a page’s link source to show a level of difficulty or lack thereof in your analysis.

It is not as accurate as Google pagerank but it is good enough for now until Market Samurai comes up with something better some time soon.

So there you have it.

Take a look at the video, you’ll see what I mean and I hope this will make it easier for you to evaluate what the numbers mean.

Stay with it, stay well and talk soon.

PS. As always, if you find this info helpful don’t forget to “tweet”,’like”,or Google + and tell all your friends.Many thanks.

    I should not have bought Market Samurai… even when it was getting PR data, Spyglass (free version) was more accurate.

    Thanks for the comment. I’ll check out Spyglass. I still use Market Samurai for a lot of it’s other functionality but I will definitely check out spyglass.

    Claude,

    Thanks for the update on Market Samaurai’s ACR Rank with Majestic SEO. I was wondering how to interpret it.

    Hi Joe – It took me a while to figure it out and I got it on video to make sure I couldn’t forget it. Glad you found the video helpful.
