MOZ Ranking says my site is ranked number one for a keyword, but when I Google it I don't see my site. Why?

Hi there AleCam!
There are some good suggestions here on where you can start to explore this, and the insight I have isn't going to be wildly different. Usually it comes down to a difference in timeframe of collections or a difference in how the rankings data is collected. So checking in live SERPs vs a tool can often show different results.
Because rankings can, and do fluctuate, it may be that what we gather one day, changes the next. There are changes going on constantly.The other difference can come down to how you're checking the rankings. As other folks have mentioned it could be a difference in mobile vs desktop, or local results and personalization. To add to that, many discrepancies in Moz Pro keyword rankings are caused by the way Moz is querying Google and other search engines. Our process completely strips personalization from the query. This means that it's more representative of a national average for all searchers in the country, but it also means that you may not be able to reproduce these exact SERPs within your browser because your location is factored into your search results.
If you're still having trouble and would like someone to look more closely at your account please do reach out to help[at]moz.com to speak to our support team.
best of luck! -

Targeting several keywords at once.
Curious how some of you are able to target several keywords on one same page, for instance for the page www.tutoroo.co/arabic-tutor-dubai we aim to rank first on Google for keywords such as "Arabic tutor" and "Arabic teacher" but also for "learn Arabic" or "learning Arabic". How do you rank up number 1 for several phrase keywords without jeopardizing current rankings?

Keywords are indexed on the home page
Hello everyone, For one of our websites, we have optimized for many keywords. However, it seems that every keyword is indexed on the home page, and thus not ranked properly. This occurs only on one of our many websites. I am wondering if anyone knows the cause of this issue, and how to solve it. Thank you.

Spam score very high but it's not clear in MOZ, it looks like a bucle
Hey there, I've a problem with this domain www.cornerjob.com In OSE just saw a spam score very high and so, I tried to see backlinks' profile in order to find suspicious backlinks. But in OSE there's a bucle, I mean: I know my domain has a high spam score but I cannot see any bad backlinks, actually the only one I see it's the same www.cornerjob.com...for that, It's a bucle. I tried to use other tools but I wasn't able to see backlinks, actually we don't have many. What Should I do in order to fix it? What does spam score mean? Thanks in advance Francesca
