I’m using this service to monitor my website’s position – http://monitor.mazecore.com . They provide rank and uptime monitoring with alerts, but position monitoring on free account is enough for me. I recommend this service with free tariff for your website.

Creating a sterile SEO testing environment is extremely difficult, no doubt about it. What I do in my projects to achieve good measurability is to setup several subdomains with exact the same amount of incoming links from exactly the same sites. Than I allow Google several weeks to show results for the keywords in question. It works for me quite well.

Hey Kamo,

Thanks for stopping by and for the constructive comment. I would love to brainstorm with you on the significance of SD values before I post it. I’ll email you with the details.

Regarding the bell curve, I thought of that, but I don’t think that 10 phrases is a sample large enough to draw any significant conclusions about the normal distribution of niches. I would need a good sample of seemingly non-competitive phrases as well as some competitive ones. Now that I think of it, just deciding what the sample is could skew the results of such investigation…
